    Hey everyone.I'm a newbie here been lurking for about a week or so.

    First of all can i say thanks to everyone for making this forum so great.After years of trying to successfully coupon I can't believe i have finally found a place which actually seems to work!

    I have a few questions i am hoping you all can answer.

    1- I see a lot of abbreviations being used which i guess are forum specific(rather than general ie IMHO).I have looked but can't find anything, is there a list decoding these anywhere?

    2- I gleaned some info from other posts but i am wondering what is counted as abuse of coupons.I have been printing off up to 8 coupons using couponstar( 4 computers and clicking couldn't print) trying to stockpile good offers where i can.I make sure they all have unique barcode references but obviously they do have duplicate names.Does this cause a problem? Am i being greedy printing off a few of does everyone do it?

    3-I noticed that many people have been getting things for free by using a coupon with something that has been rolled back reduced etc?I always thought you couldn't do that as it says cannot be used in conjunction with any other offer.Are there dos and don'ts?Can you use them with BOGOF and 2 for £ etc as well.

    Thanks in advance :)

    Are there any specific abbreviations you can't decode? :rotfl: I'm sure nobody will mind letting you know what they mean! And it may help other people who aren't clear on what they stand for either.

    As long as the coupons all have unique numbers on the long barcode you should be fine. They are certainly all valid! The only problem you might come across is if they say in the T&Cs that only one coupon can be used per customer - the SAs can get picky if they notice that, but not many coupons do say that on them. Always still worth a try! And I think you'll find that most people on here print off as many as they possibly can :)

    Combining coupons with other offers is definitely the best way to make the most out of them, I've successfully used coupons before when a multibuy is on, or bogof etc. Although the coupons do say 'not in conjunction with any other offer', most of the time the SAs don't know which items are on offer (or at least not all of them!), and I think people have only reported problems with this being picked up on in Morrisons so you should be fine elsewhere :)

    Happy couponning!! :)

    Thank you IS for all your hard work it was much appreciated :T And welcome MT I'm sure you will be just as fantastic :beer:

    I have a question for all you wonderful knowledgeable people regarding APG, I know it has to be 8 items, but does different flavour of the same product ie. a strawberry yogurt and a banana yogurt count as 1 or 2 items?

    Hope that makes sense :o

    Need a few bits that are cheaper in T's so would be rude not to buy them in A's in this crazy mixed up world we live in :rotfl:

    TIA
    :j First mini munchkin due 05/04/2013 :j
