    I have had very good luck using vouchers in my local Waitrose, however I can only use 5 vouchers per transaction. Also, they check to make sure that they carry the EXACT item as described in the coupon, if the coupon is for something that is 50ml but they only carry the item at 100ml, then the coupon wont be accepted. I am happy to drop in and use 5 coupons, so I am very careful to only use coupons that they can redeem and not over do it all so that they don't change their policy. I took a few of the Superdrug Olay coupons there a few months back and a few of the SAs told me that they got in trouble (even though the managers said it was ok to accept them).
    I :heart2: Waitrose

    My Insideouts would not scan at ASDA, but the SA just kindly batted the right button on the till and entered the amount manually.

    Sorry if anyone has said this before re Inside Out coupons - but if the CA uses the scanner gun it works most of the time. If you're feeling cheeky you may want to suggest this to them. ;) Used 6 coupons in one go yesterday
