    Good afternoon all,

    Hope you are all well and have had a coupontastic day!!

    Just done a Mr T shop for £22 and paid £3.57 :D
    inc 2 dove deodrants
    2 arial stain remover
    6 jars pasta sauce
    2 bottles 21 wash lenor fabric softner
    and 2 tins spam!
    Not forgetting the 2 packs of 8 biros sel £1.35 scanned at £1.60 so £1 DTD refund.

    Then ran in to waitrose and picked up another 8 rolls cushelle for £1 (bogof @£2 use 2 x 50p coupons) and found to my most upset that the 42 wash lenor are bogof @£3.05 - could have got double the amount for the same price with 2 x £1 coupons. (must borrow MIL laptop and print some more) also aerial actilift is bogof @£7 so £5 for 2 bottles with 2 x £1 coupons!! Edit - opps over excited for nothing as forgot lenor and aerial vouchers are tesco/sainsburys only!!

    OK last edit I promise - you can print aerial vouchers that are non-store specific using http://www.supersavvyme.com/gelcoupon/home.aspx :beer:

    Also ordered 2 t-shirts for £1.99 each for OH as fathers day gift from 'Printed wardrobe' using the £10 off code PRINTED10 (and they do free delivery) Bargain. :T:T
    all in all a good hall I think - and returned home to 2 TPC vouchers from wombles of 6p and 8p. Had to chuckle.

    RT x

    PS big thank yous to all this week as not had too much time to read and thank (sorry)

    just a little question.. please dont shoot me down i havent done anything yet, thats why im asking first. I know when the asda baby club huggies boxes were giving extra money off your shop some of you got loads of coupons. can i pleasse ask how you did this ? did you register more than once with diff email addresses or make up completely fake postal addresses or what. just asking as i only got the 2 vouchers i was allowed when i joined the club honestly but i only have a cuple of weeks left before bump pops and was wondering if there was a way of getting a couple more boxes free. also would i be best not putting them thru with a shop when i pay by c/card, would they be able to trace me ?

    thanks for any help.

    kind of coupon related,
    i won a comp last year for a nights stay at a hotel in Telford, including 1 st class rail travel,im going to the hotel soon and have been trying to arrange the trains, 1st lot of tickets arrived but dont cover the first leg of my journey from Reading to Birmingham, phoned them up and was told they dont have tickets for that area, after a bit of conflab he said he would send tickets for 1st leg which arrived today which were standard class, phoned again and was told they cant get hold of 1st class tickets but if i didnt mind travelling standard he would send 1st class tickets for travel within the south east. Thought i would push my luck so asked if i settled for standard would they be able to send tickets from reading to birmingham return for a party of 6, he said no problem .
    So we are all off to gfs next weekend by train plus when we go to telford we will go standard to birmingham and 1st class to telford.
    some people are so helpful ( unlike the trout i encountered at asda today)lol

    ps coupon reated bit is the gfs

    Using code you will get £2 off.
