It seems we have a "CouponWoman" (no space) and a "Coupon Woman" (with a space)"! Could get confusing!

the only time it is confusing, is when I get the email saying Coupon Woman has posted, then I think it is CouponWoman.

I know CW, Coupon Woman is a newbie.

Hi everyone!

I have pasted this on the tesco chat thread but thought I would ask on here too!

If it's not too cheeky.....does anyone have an online Tesco grocery code for the £5 off £40 that they won't be using?

For Weds / thurs this week delivery!?

Would be much appreciated! Please PM me.

Thanks!

Just a reminder about the Persil/Comfort coupon. It expires on 29th Feb, so get them used up.

Comfort is still 98p in Wilkinsons. :j

Not anymore in ours - went back up to £1.80 last weekend. Although I could wash for months with my stock:)

Hey thanks for the reply - I did try the shopping list but didn't have time to compare it to the coupons I have so thought I'd just ask about any good deals!

I have a Tetley coupon so I shall be buying some!

Best way is to sit and plan your shop. Before I head out to a certain shop I always look at MT's shopping list, its brilliant and quick. Make a drink and make the time to have a few minutes to see what you can save with the coupons you have. Happy couponing!

Cheers I'm normally really efficient and organised and no exactly where I'm going and what for after browsing on here for a few days. However I have had a nightmare few weeks with my sons health, work and just life in general so I have only just been looking the past day or 2 - intermittantly. I also hadn't planeed on this trip to Tesco, I was going somewhere else on spare of the moment and didn't have time to plan!

I managed to get a good few bargains too!:j

OK so as I stated - todays trip to Mr S wasn't planned so I grabbed my binder and just hoped for the best - only had 15 minutes in there too, this is what I got:

2 x Andrex Wipes: 2-4-£2, used 2 x 0.90p coupons - 0.20p cost to me
2 x 4 Pack of Fruit Shoots: 2-4-£2.00, used 2 x 0.30p coupons - £1.40 cost to me
2 x Large Bottles of Fairy: 2-4-£2.50, used 2 x £1.00 coupons - 0.50p cost to me
1 x 725ml Vimto on offer for £1.00, used 1 x 0.50p Coupon - 0.50p cost to me

Should have been £12.46 before multi buy offers and coupons - I paid £2.60!

Also got 2 bathroom Soap Dispensers reduced from £6.00 each to £1.50 each!

Not bad for an unplanned trip!

Extreme couponing in america seems fairly normal, however it seems frowned upon in this country, i love the thought of coming out the shop with a trolley full of goods for next to nothing. The closest I came was a bulk load of Persil from Co- op. I'll keep on dreaming in the meantime.

Got 4 stir fry shots yesterday at T with the free coupons, along with the Loreal shampoo/cond. Thought I might as well stick in T Price Check anyway - ended up with £1.25 against stir fry shots - even though had paid nothing!! Would have been more but the Loreal was cheaper at T.

Not bad for free coupons. It's worth buying free things at most expensive store - then checking. Bear in mind the minimum purchases needed for APG/Sains

Hey as mentioned on post after yours, you need to look on page one and work your way through the coupons!

It's time consuming and some of the things aren't always what you want or need right then but if I'm paying pennies for items I'll stock pile them - my stock pile isn't too big put I have laundry and washing up liquid for about 6 months - I have a freezer full of Aunt Bessie's stuff which will always be used - I wait for the items to be £1.00 and use my 50p coupons!

I am calling to Tesco shortly as I have a £5.00 off WYS £40.00 and a £10.00 gift card from a complaint I sent in - throw in some coupons and I'm hoping for a good deal!:)
