repost - you mean 'riposte', a very different word.
bare - yet again, yet AGAIN.
Intellect has no bearing on whether or not you take your(voucher discounted)kit off.
But you're not alone. Walk along The Embankment towards Westminster Pier and the Winged Victory there says she'll 'bare' you aloft. That's Victorian stonemasons' wishful thinking for you.

Deliberate, persistent r+rers are thieves. Sue me.

Thieving is taking one possesions without their consent / permission.

you DO have Tesco's consent / permission when they follow their R&R policy. How can this be stealing??????????????????????????

If they do not follow said advertised policy (wether r&r or DD that is advertised), surely they can also be reported to the advertising standards agency as they are breaching their own advertisments?

Anyhow this is going pretty much off topic, and as I see how this thread has gone downhill due to some posters winding others up, I can see this thread being closed for good by redfox.
Please stop all this and discuss, not argue / slander / wind up people.

Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: While it’s easy to wander off-topic that often prevents newbies finding the information they want quickly and easily (please see this rule).

please keep the thread on topic and not let it descend into arguments and/or insults. These Tesco threads are continuing to cause a problem and the Forum Team do not have the resources, or priorities, to monitor this constantly, so the threads may well be closed down, as has happened before. If it continues then the closure may become permanent so please bear this in mind.

Thank you red fox for talking some sense! I cannot believe the arguments that are going on in here! At the end of the day nearly everyone in here took advantage of a policy that was put in place to apologise for overcharging genuine customers not for people who actively go out in search of them and buy 10 of the said product! The policy has now changed because of people like that and all they can do is come on here and moan about it! As for the argument of putting clubcard points on peoples cards who have missed a pricing error that is their own fault for not checking their receipt! Why should they be awarded for not making sure their bill was right! Well i'm off to get on with my life because i have actually got one unlike some people on here!

Just come back from buying some mouthwash and a paper all for 3p using QK vouchers, and my receipt from the self-scan in my local stores says near the top "We have changed our Refund Policy. Please see in-store for details"

So even the tills, which I had always presumed were programmed centrally, are now advertising the change in policy a week before Tesco's own "press release" in the Telegraph said it would change.

(I never saw one of those Uniball vouchers as the nearest Asda is a short flight away).

Using your example above, the store would get credit for all but the last one. So it has not lost out. When the vouchers are issued/printed, the cost is budgeted for, so Tesco as a whole has not lost out. The only loss I can see is to the people who do not get the vouchers because others have taken more than their "share".

The uniball coupon was a manufacturers coupon misprinted in the Asda magazine. It had 50p on it, but scanned at £4.50.

All the coupons I quoted (except the last ones) were actual Tesco coupons, (not manufacturers), so would Tesco be able to get credit for these at all, as the clothing ones were off any clothing?

It actually makes me feel a bit better if they are able to claim it back, and if they can, why even bother trying to stop this practice, they're still obviously getting their profit.

I would consider it abuse if the purchase was made intentionally in order to later obtain a refund.

I know that wasn't aimed at anyone specific, but I don't (and never have) tried to hide the fact that serial RandRs and couponers abuse the relevant policies...


On the 11th of Feb,the day the clothing coupons expired, there were thousands lying about, in stores where there wern't any(on show) 2 days previous.
