    Just been reading the Tesco cottage thread, seems peeps are talking about photocopying coupons again :eek:

    Quote:

    what ive been doing with coupons from supersaveyme and all the others is print once scan and print of at least 10 lol never had a problem yet using any of the vouchers.

    Hope this doesn't go the way of DTD :( That's just greedy imo.
    The beginning of the end !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

    No no no :( It's not just greedy, it's selfish. We could all be doing that but we think of others, and how it would ruin it so don't. Not that I'd even do it if I didn't give two fiddles about people, isn't it fraud?

    Thanks for the BK link Shazam, my OH loves a cheeky burger king so will hopefully stop taking the piddle out of my new love of coupons when he sees them! Does anyone know if they're valid for use at service station BKs? Just that's the one we use (closest) Don't want to waste paper and ink if I can't use them!

    I am a recent convert back to coupons :) used to do it years ago but am getting back into the swing of it again now! Must say i think photocopying them is really a big no, no though and will eventually spoil it for all of us :(. Had a good shop in Asda yesterday, £48 spend down to £9 with coupons! The SA had to get a supervisor to over-ride the till as i had 'exceeded the coupon limit' lol! I didn't even knew that such a thing existed, will have to do smaller shops from now on me thinks. Then in the car park i wombled 4 receipts and got almost £20 back in pg vouchers :jso my boys are very happy as I have said they can buy some Star Wars lego with it :). Huge thanks to everyone on this thread,(have thanked first posts) you all seem a very friendly bunch.

    Morning All, :hello:

    Not raining here yet, but threatening and very muggy.

    I'm sure I've asked this before but can't find a reply. With the Countrylife coupon that's on the first page, does anyone else have fuzzy text and a very small coupon (approx 2"x1") when they print it off? Also, is the butter still on offer at Asda?


    Bully, not sure what might be wrong with you but hope it gets better soon :)

    Its when you find old receipts (normally in trolleys) that other people have left behind and put them into the Asda price guarantee/Tesco price check and if the shopping would have been cheaper elsewhere then you can print a voucher off for the difference (plus 10% if at Asda) hope that makes sense!

    the first time I printed it, it was fine, think printed bottom or top of page, so not very small and not fuzzy text?

    can I ask do you have to sent the font every time you want to post? There isn't a way of doing it in the userCP is there?

    DTD is double the difference, this is what Tesco was doing. It has finished now to people getting way too much back on their receipts.

    If Tesco was more expensive than Asda after they had analysed your receipt, they were giving you double the difference back. People managed to buy Ipods and phones and other expensive items when it first started. Then it got capped at £20 per receipt, to £100 a month per household.

    Now they are only giving you the difference back.

    For Asda it is different. I don't have an Asda near me so don't do it.

    Asda promise 10% if they are more expensive than their competitiors but you must have at least 8 items that they choose to compare on your receipt.

    Will see if I can find links for you.
