On the facebook page it does not stop you from pressing the back button on your browser and entering again with a different email address. It does complain if you try and use the same email address twice though.

I just load up the page again.

thats what i thought. lots of people like the 20p off campbells coupons too.

nothing wrong with 20p off coupon, when A were reducing their campbells soups to 65p, etc, and you got soup for 45p, etc. to some of us even 20p here and there saving makes a big difference.

completely agree with you... i used those 20p offs on over 100 campbells rice, soup and pasta packets. Their normall price was over 80p... not bad, but then they were reduced to between 50p and 6op so the coupon comes in handy too.

I dont look at the small savings each week but at the larger yearly picture.

I'm grateful for all the savings and advice i find on here and would never mock for however small a saving.

Hey .. I personally do not print for anything less than 50p...cos think of the ink and paper u use... especially the ink!!

I get my paper through MS jobs or wait until it is reduced. As for ink, never pay full price for it, wait for offers/vouchers etc, I print in draft quality, still dcans and is not heavy on ink.

thank you for the article this part particularly stood out to me

does this mean we can still use the coupon if we want? I haven't deleted it yet and was planning on getting some shopping tomorrow anyway

In my experience valassis usually sides with the company when it comes to these issues so the fact they have taken the consumers side and said yes the coupon is valid as it scans and yes it can be used until it expires, is a green light for me to use it. Especially considering I got the coupon off the original email and when I click the link in the email I recieved for some reason; it still opens. With the wrights coupon valassis coluded (sp?) with them to withdraw it; this isn't the case here. My local Sainsbury's will not give you money back if a coupon is worth more than the product so I didn't get any money back but I used 8 of these today and got 8 handsoaps for free as the SA scanned them but override them and entered the coupon value at £0.87. I would not have done this if I had not read the article in thisismoney, but if thisismoney are lying or something then I'll hold them responsible lol. The SA said that they had been told the same that these coupons are legit still; the wording and barcode means that they scan either at £1 or can be entered manually if the product value is less than this and they have been assured they will be redeemed by valassis. And this is Sainsburys who are very anti-coupon so if there was a problem with the coupon they would surely be the first to say you cannot use it. Just my opinion. This is the first time I have used a 'withdrawn' coupon and I would never normally do so unless valassis or someone else high up in the company itself says it is ok to use xx

My print outs are currently working out at 1-2p a copy at the very most. (Thats for paper and ink), still I'd be a bit miffed at a 10p coupon, its not 1986 or something! Campbells is different as their products are well under a quid anyway; not seen how much this coffee is but I can imagine its more than £2....xx

I nearly always use scrap paper that I get from my old workplace or sometimes junk mail so I very rarely buy paper!
