    See my earlier comments.
    I haven't been able to get one to 'scan' yet - despite sa best efforts - even entering bar code numbers manually didn't work. But self scan supervisor kindly gave me a manual discount when this old bag looked helpless and confused (ok I admit, this is my normal expression:rolleyes: ) clutching the coupon, and with a growing queue behind me :D

    I have ONE left with todays date, so I will give Asda a go tonight;)
    At least todays has a nice long expiry date.

    I only saw the outside of the paper, but it is advertising 'free pizza and glass of wine when you take advantage of our two for one deal at Cafe Uno'. Presumably a voucher inside.

    I 'took' the Inside out and the other coupon from last Thursday's Times from In laws paper (after they'd read it ;) ) and used them both in my tescos on Saturday and they scanned no problem.

    I haven't been able to get mine Inside Out coupons to work at Waitrose. I suppose I could take them through a queue with a SA that I know prefers to enter coupons manually, but I realised today that my Waitrose doesn't even carry Inside Out, and I don't want to lose my coupon privileges (If I get an SA in trouble, they wont want to help me the next time around). Has anyone actually see this magazine/newspaper?

    TIA
    I :heart2: Waitrose

    yes, you do need 2 coupons - and they are printing one coupon per day until Friday 5 Jan.

    Not that many of these caffe unos though - worth checking how far away yours is.

    sorry we don't have a Waitrose - but yes have seen the magazine - its a bit like "ideal home" type of mag and Tesco do stock them - and yes the tokens have been very hit and miss, sometimes needing manual entering and even then some CAs have just given me the money and scribbled over the code.

    Just come back from Tescos and the cashier tried but could not get my Inside Out coupon to work so I quickly got out a 30p coupon. Not so good but I did get a till spit for 30 extra points off kichen rolls, toilet rolls or tissues. Bought another Times and the Inside Out coupon is valid until 31st January so plenty of shopping trips to be made before then.

    Thank goodness I went back and read Wednesdays newspaper stuff - I would have missed the fact that the Inside out coupon in Wednesdays paper wasn't the one that ended that day - I very nearly threw out £4!
