if i get a coupon lets say for hovis bread and i go into asda and they are doing an offer that day, or it has been reduced will my coupon be valid?
Trying to make big cut backs!!!

    The short answer is yes. But coupon deals are nowhere near as common in the UK as the states.

    I got a coupon for Pataks sauce last week. The price in the supermarket was £1.05 but the coupon knocked £1.50 off my total shopping.
