Thanks CW
I agree with your post, There was nothing "up to" on their coupon so thought I might have got lucky. I was happy to get £14 of free rabbit food but they just made me feel so bad about the coupons. I am hoping I did nothing wrong by using multiples but there is nothing I can see stopping me in T&C.
I haven't printed the coupons but it was probably more that they didn't know what to do with them as they hadn't seen them before.
In a way its the manufacturers fault, they should send a memo to their shops warning them about the coupons (or maybe they did and no one took any notice).
I would just print off a couple more and get some next time you need the rabbit food, good to feed the bunnies free food.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Can someone please tell me if I am doing something wrong?
When I printed out these coupons they were huge (almost filled the sheet of A4 paper), will they be accepted at this size or is there something which I should adjust?
I've never seen such a big coupon before!
TIA
When you come to print the coupon can you alter the size of it, I have noticed sometimes that there is a scan size, it might say something like, its on 150% or something. If you reduce that size, maybe it will print at a more reasonable size.
Sorry but I am not very technie about re-sizing coupons. Hope someone who knows better than me comes along soon.

I has a validation query at mr T yesterday SA had to refer to supervisor before she could process , went through ok she just advised similar that has probelms with internet vouchers recently , I am aware another person has a similar issue in the same store ( via PM ) this week too.
hopefully !!!but not totally covinced will calm down once the PDF multi purchase stuff had died down
Cheers for the update, just a slight turn around from company policy not to accept them then *rolls eyes* Haven't been back to that one yet, need to go later for a couple of bits and pieces, I printed a couple of MOCs yesterday so will let you know how it goes
Allthough I'm not sure wheter to give that one a miss and head for the other extra instead. ...those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

Hi just been to Tesco checked with team leader it would be ok to use my coupons first, she said yes, I asked If I could use 2 of the £5 off clothing coupon, in 1 transaction, if I spent £50 and she said officially no but if the cashier did it that was ok.
4 soups used vouchers
4 shreddies used vouchers
6 colgate used vouchers
used 2x £5 clothes vouchers
£4 off a £30 spend
I was very happy:j So thanks everyoneStarting to save £2 coins again, but it is a struggle:rotfl:Not doing very well keep spending them

I used 5 in one go in Pets@Home with no problems. Glad you managed to get some freebies out of it....P@H is obviously much more expensive than your shop!0 -
