Sainsburys self service tills - any problems

Hi,

just wondering if anyone has had any problem today using their vouchers/coupons in Sainsburys on the self service tills?

Comments

  • Yeah, £3 voucher for Dettol No-touch hand wash. Screen said something like the fact that the coupon exceeded the maximum allowed costs, or there was no related purchased item.

    Woman on the tills sorted it though :)

    I think that's because the self service till takes a maximum of £2.50 discount with vouchers.

    I was wondering if anyone had used any vouchers and been prevented from continuing until an assistant arrives (that's what Morrisons' and Tesco's do) - but usually sainsburys just ask you to put the voucher in the bin provided. I wondered if the policy had been changed since the kerfuffle yesterday regarding the lady from Wrexham

    I've got loads of small value vouchers and would feel embarrassed if I had to call someone over for such a trivial amount (although the vouchers do mount up!)
