    I've been to several tonight. To give you an example of why I multi-buy when these offers are on (well done Robin hood btw) :

    My children (I have 5) have eaten 4 boxes of these since the glitch started. I have a few more stock but have 50 vouchers printed off. I will no hesitate in buying them.

    The reason all the supermarkets are running low is because they have a cereal that's usually on a single facing, now only £1. In all 4 stores I went to, the shelves were empty of all of the £1 cereal.
    I've been in Tesco to find empty shelves.........and not too far away a barely touched pallet of them :)

    They cant get their money back if it's not on the right product. If people keep doing this the supermarkets will stop taking coupons full stop
  • I have been buying them in two's SS the first coupon goes through but the second needs authorisation but this has not been a problem.

    Need to find more room in the kitchen cupboards!
  • Has anyone found that when just printing the link (eg one coupon per page) that it scans fine, but if I print screen and put 3/4 on a page (to save paper) that they don't scan? Therefore causing more problems when using SS :( I've printed 6 pages like this but because they don't scan i'm going to start again doing one at a time just so I don't have to ask for help lol! Such a wimp :P
    :cool:

    Managed to get my first 2 boxes of cereal today, no probs. Decided to use 'small basket' cashier who looked very bored and would rather be out with her mates. The cereal coupons wouldn't scan on the flat screen thingy, so she used the hand held thingy and they worked ok. + I gave her a 50p and a £1 coupon for a £1.99 sacla sauce and they both scanned.

    I think if you chance a coupon for the wrong product and it works it will be ok because there are loads of people who buy the correct product without the coupon and when all the coupons are tallied up, it will just be like someone else has used it for the correct product
    Still virtually alcohol free since 4/1/15. (10 Xmas/ New Year/Birthday drinks)

    Barcodes are very fussy. The lines have to be crisp & clear. The Campbell's soup one clearly says to print the page with no scaling. For the sake of a couple of quid for a ream of cheap paper, print the coupons one per sheet as they were designed or risk the coupon being rejected.
  • You could always turn the sheet of paper around once printed on, just experiment to see whether the next print is at the top or bottom and this way you can print on the other side too.
