Money off coupon 'chat' thread

Comments

  • I'm confused as well- not sure why folks can't say what they bought and how much they saved. Its too complicated now. I haven't posted there for a while but its more to do with not having time to do the coupon shops recently. But now I feel I can't contribute anyway as I haven't found any coupons. Perhaps I missed the posts that had nothing at all to do with coupons????
    I do feel really sorry for MT though. She is kind of caught between the two sides. I do like to see it from someone elses point of view but I'm really struggling with the tone of the "reprimands" now.
    Really, you need the posters to get the coupon finds- fewer folks on that thread, fewer finds.
    As I have benefitted so much from the coupon finds, and do appreciate the time MT puts in, I will post any finds there- if I ever get any!! Its just such a shame that thread has changed beyond recognition now.

    I am royally miffed as most of my posts have been deleted from the other coupon thread; without warning-I really enjoyed sharing my 'hauls' with everyone here as it was letting people know how you can save a very high percentage off your shopping in real life but it has really put me off now :( xx

    BT said they were going to start deleting posts without even moving them now.

    I think we need to all calm down and relax a little.

    The thread was friendly and people's shopping lists were helpful for those who don't have time to work out their own. Not everyone has time to post on 2/3 threads, especially where they work full time, have families, etc.

    Please people, don't stop posting, please don't go to lurkdom. It is really helpful when a new coupon is found and people say how it prints, top or bottom, too much ink :eek: and where they found the item and how much for. This IS NOT chat! This is useful :money: on how to save money!

    If people stop posting, the thread will die a death and you will force me to go and read HUKD which I find difficult at the best of timeS!!!!!:eek: :(

    Hi everyone as a relative newbie to the coupon thread here is my hopefully helpful contribution for Co-op shoppers. finally made it after promising to do so a week ago sorry :( All prices should be until 14 Feb unless stated.

    see this should be on the coupon thread. This was a very helpful post. No reason for it to be on chat :(

    No they aren't myrtleturtle; I have checked, browntoa has gone through with the threat (which had little notice tbh) but thanks anyway, its not your fault xx

    Had a super good shop today from using coupons from here and a few i got from complaint/compliments to companies

    Went to mr T's and got cheerios and shreddies = £2 using £2 voucher
    and some coco pops =£2 using £2 voucher
    Then went to mr S And got 20x Muller fruit corners = £6 Using £5 vouchers and paid £1
    4 x peppa pig spaghetti = 49X 4 =£1.96 Using £2 voucher
    2 persil non bio liquid tabs £2.99 X2 = £5.98 used 4 x £1 vouchers so paid £1.98
    2 x pilgrims choice lighter £6 using vouchers paid £3

    So got about £23 worth of stuff for just under 6

    Happy face =p =p =p
    Am I missing a trick here? how can you possibly buy 2 persil yet use 4 coupons? :eek:
    I made a mistake once, believeing people on the internet were my virtual friends. It won't be a mistake that I make again!
