  • Personally I think it is a shame when people overuse vouchers like shreddies. I have 'bought' a few boxes but they will be shared between myself and my family. I don't see the point in getting 20 odd items at a time. However, if the people doing this are generally donating these to refuges or shelters then I feel this is fair-these places have a genuine need for food donations.

    Sadly greed can get in the way of considering others for some. Those of us who are genuinely only using what we need are going about it the right way in my opinion:-)

  • Hi all, I hope you're all well.
    I have also experienced my first 'trouting' today. One lonely box of Honey Shreddies was on the shelf so took it to SS with a few other bits and the SA announced (loudly :mad:) they'd had issues and were no longer taking Shreddies coupons - was made to feel like a criminal! I have used Colgate coupons in a different T today though so not all bad. :)X
  • Evening all,

    Well my day did not go to plan :mad: didn't make it to any shops!!
    Party number 1 should have lasted 2hours but turned into 3 making my dash to Mr A before party number 2 impossible :mad:
    Was going to go to Mr T on the way to mums until dd needed the toilet very badly (her refusal to use mr T's toilets is becoming quite an issue with a moc addict in tow!!!)

    On the upside, day off 2moro, dd in school so I am on a mission big style lol I shall report back 2moro with my goodies :rotfl:

    On the subject of trouts, I have never experienced this in any stores... sa's are more than happy 2 accept everytime with no questions asked. Alot of the time I find they automatically enter them manually rather than scan them?? Maybe I'm just lucky or live in a happy area?:j
    Happy couponing xxx

    I expect there are a few people who are giving all their free goodies away to various shelters - but I am a cynical *** and I reckon most people who buy huge quantities and clear shelves are just greedy and selfish enough to grab everything in sight without a second thought. Yes, its good to share to with shelters , family and friends - but its questionable whether anyone really needs to buy hundreds of the same item. You can still do others a bit of a good turn without leaving nothing at all for other shoppers. I'm not going to get into an argument into the rights and wrongs of individuals actions - those that think its OK to grab the lot will go on doing it and the rest of us will just have to put up with it. Personally, I still think its mainly greed - but then thats the way the world seems to be these days. So, go on stripping shelves - but don't expect everyone to pat you on the back!

  • I know there was an issue with the comfort pure/persil non bio from mumsplusone but is anyone else having trouble getting onto any of their other coupons? I had them bookmarked (am now going through to save as files) but keep getting an error page.

    TIA.

    I have waved DD off to Uni today with a case load of Campbells soup and Sacla pasta sauces! (Collected using the little and often stategy!).

    Sadly, I too forgot to save the £1 Sacla pdf.......I saved the 50p one in my coupon folder........Won't make the same mistake again! :o

    May have already been mentioned, but Pilgrim Cheese 2 4 1 in Mr T. Using 2 X 30p vouchers brings the price of a pack below £2.

    Also, finally managed to get the Pl@x 75p coupon. Thanks to MT's comment about it being slow to load. (Saved in my coupon folder MT :)).

    Was planning to go to Mr M to spend my £10 voucher, on the way home from work tomorrow, but think I will be Plaxing at Mr A's instead! Campbells cup a soup 2 for £1.50 and some more Comfort conditioner too.

    This is my new hobby now DD has flown the nest. :rotfl:

    Yeah they are. But originally I just 'bookmarked' them. Am now trying to organise myself properly seeing as I'm facing bed rest for a few more weeks and can't get ANYTHING to load from them. The main site or any coupon links.

    :( Good job I have a few pre-printed. xx
