Shocking.
I'm tempted to bid £10,000 on it!!
Are you actually allowed to list these things on Ebay, can it be reported?...those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

some people dont know you can get vouchers for free, they just look on ebay, see vouchers, and buy, they dont know if they typed in free printable vouchers, that they'd come up, i didnt know before, they also sell free samples on there too._Jen_0

unbelievable :mad:.
l I think this is the nail in the coffin for us coupon users.
To the people who are doing this .........
YOUR SHORT TERM GREED IS
YOUR LONG TERM LOSS
good grief she has a shop full of coupons and has bids !!!
Is there no way they can be reported for this ???
Im not sure that its against ebay rules unfortunately, thats why greedy people do it I guess. Someone who feels strongly about it may decide to wreck an auction (do multiple bids up to a very large amount and then won't pay perhaps, so her FVF are huge) But by the sounds of it its widespread. I remember being shocked during the cravendale promotion when people were selling the wraps with the codes on, some 70 at a time! (Thats when us friendly MSErs were giving them away for free on here:money:)
Manufacturers can 'lean' on ebay to prevent certain brands being sold (I think its called VIRO) but the problem is, if someone told Nestle about the ebay voucher sales, nestle are more likely to pull their voucher/promotion and not run a similar promotion.
PDFs are open to abuse like this, telling the original downloaded print from a photocopy must be difficult.
I think thats why they are now doing the unique vouchers with the safety tick on, thats probably the way manufacturers will go rather than stop vouchers altogether.0 -

It was me that found the Campbells "free can" coupon in the first place and posted it on this thread - I was delighted when I found it as it meant I could contribute something to this thread which has been of great use to me and also to those wonderful people on here that have been so kind to pass on their finds ... Then I see over the past week the coupon has been posted everywhere with people taking reckless advantage. People are not even having the decency to sign up with Campbells to get the coupon - they are just passing it around between themselves in multiples.
I feel quite guilty I have to admit - I know Campbells should have put better practice in place but I can't help feeling that way! Come the end of the next period when they collate the coupons received back from retailers, they will have sent out maybe a few thousand e-mails attaching the coupon, yet have millions of coupons returned to them for redemption!
And (just for pettiness sake!) these other people passing it around are the ones that are getting all the "thanks" clicks!
I felt really guilty too over the Dove thread , honestly didn't realise people would take the utter p*ss out of the 'deal'
Then I posted the Sacla one ( silly me! lol ) BUT as they cost 49p with the voucher didn't think people would take the **** out of that one as well , but where there's a will there's a way and all that so they used BOTH vouchers ie the £1 AND 50p one so got it for -1p and needless to say people were buying , this time HUNDREDS and doing the usual boasting about it too! lol
I seriously have to think twice now before posting a deal unfortunately , but thats just the way it is and once again the innocent punters MISS OUT!! xx
( Not on HUNDREDS of jars coz we're not that !!!!!!! greedy thankfully , but eg just one or two for our dinner - The USUAL stuff??? ) lol0 -

I like the tiny little writing at the end in the corner that says
'As soon as payment is received your coupon will be printed and mailed to you'

I found a voucher which means you can get 1 litre of good quality fresh milk for 49p ... I know , not the greatest offer ever , but would have suited those who don't freeze 4 litres of milk at a time BUT I changed my mind about posting it as I didn't like the feeling of knowing it could potentially have the **** taken out of it and be misused. I just didn't feel comfortable with the potential misuse so have been put off posting some deals on here I'm afraid!
So let me get this right. You criticise others for using too many vouchers and you use coupons posted on here yourself.
But you're not going to post coupons on here.
Isn't that even worse than what you accuse others of??
Stop playing PC Plod and share and share alike.
If everyone else had your attitude of not posting coupons there wouldn't be a coupon thread!0 -
