Before, I posted a thread about finding some coupons. I have managed to just find one for 3.00 off Andrex, Huggies, Kleenex, or Depend. Expiring 31/03/13 Someone sent me a link to a jpeg file which they saved the downloaded coupon to so i could print it. I have printed it and it looks very genuine with a code on the barcode, and next to it. Also, there is an address to redeem the coupon at and t&c.

I am still however worried about using the coupon just in case it is fake. I am unable to post links due to being new, but this is what the coupon looks like on somebody's Ebay listing. Please tell me if this coupon is genuine before I use it. Thanx.

I had some of these coupons which were sent to me by the manufacturer after a complaint. It looks to me like someone has copied them and is now selling them on Ebay. Definitely would not use them.

I'd advise you do not use them. Manufacturers have pretty much stopped sending coupons out now for compliments received and I believe it's because of certain people in the recent past scanning in the coupons they get from such letters. Using such coupons only harms genuine couponers at the end of the day and it's not worth it. Shops probably won't be reimbursed for these even if they do scan and this will only lead them to be more suspicious of all couponers out there. Even my local waitrose now which a couple of years ago had a policy that if they sold it, they'd redeem a coupon for it even if you hadn't bought the item they have been told to really crack down now. Last few times I have used coupons in there the shop assistant has had to scroll back through the shopping on the screen to ensure the coupons in question are for exactly the product bought, they never used to have to do this xx

Oh my gosh! Just got back from a shop at A's. I saved about £30 using vouchers (£69 down to £39) but it was hard work! The SA had to call a supervisor asking if it was ok to to take them, then she kept on asking if I'd brought the item, she'd already scanned the whole lot so I was having to take them back out to show her, then the till needed an over-ride as there was so many vouchers so back came the supervisor! The bloke behind me was getting so annoyed but tbh for a £30 saving, I don't really care! Going to do the APG tomorrow and see if I get some more money back too! Also picked up 2 TMF/MBG items too

Excellent, that's the way to do it! Which vouchers did you use, I'm going to Asda later today and have a few coupons I want to use, don't want to miss a bargain!

No they print off ok, have you already printed them from your computer? If you have, you will need to use another computer to get another two coupons off.

Just back from Asda, a £29.70 shop and paid £10.20, fab. The Ellnett hairsprays (the small ones) are on offer for £1.25, so free hairspray and 25p off the rest of your shop.

Thank you. Which ones didn't I use?! Had a free Krave box, 40p off Green's (went for the 49p cake), 50p off washlets (£1 atm), 50p off plax (£1 atm), 2 x free plum baby food, 6x £1 off Ella's kitchen snacks (went for biccies as they are £1.43 atm I think), £1.50 off elvive (went for an intensive conditioner), £2.50 off l'oreal skincare (got the wipes - I know Sain's is cheaper but I don't know when I can get over there), £2.00 off L'oreal cosmetics (got tan wipes as they are £2), 50p off cravendale x2, £1 off quaker oats, 50p off quaker oats morning bars. There were probably some more! Got some whoopsie items too and used 2 APG vouchers as well

Oh and 2x 50p mocs for anchor cream - they are 50p atm

They are the same ones as I got sent when the huggies newborn boxes were in shops with no barcodes on the coupons. They are definetly a photopcopy.
