    Just returned from Tesco but none of the Sacla sauces are on offer (as reported earlier). I tried scanning in store but each variety came up as £1.99.

    Managed to get the small packs of Wrights bread mixes on 3 for 2 (using 3 x 30p coupons) even though it was only the larger packets that were marked 3 for 2!

    Handed over my coupons at the end of transaction but SA made a mistake and finalised the bill before taking off my coupons so I had to go to Customer Services to get them refunded. There they tried to tell me that they no longer take coupons unless they are Tesco specific ones. I had to re-educate them by advising that it was only the conditional spend coupons that this applied to. Eventually they agreed to put them through. I had a similar conversation with a supervisor a couple of days ago - I wish Tesco would train their staff properly!:mad:

    I agree with you, its annoying (but thrilling at the same time :D ) not knowing what reaction you are going to get.



    Had a few nasty experiences last week but will hopefully fade quickly from the memory - I always try to remember the bad ones that just try to be awkward for no clear reason and stick with the peeps that enjoy their job - shopping is supposed to be enjoyable. :rotfl:

    if sacla for 99p at Mr M is over? I went to Mr M today and it was 1,98.
    Can anyone confirm this? I understood it to be til 13 Nov.

    I agree with the others posting about staff not knowing their own coupon policy - would make shopping far less stressful and OH wouldn't look like he'd rather be anywhere than shopping with me.
    It's 5 o'clock somewhere!

    You need pop-up allowed for this one - prints 2 :D Cheers missy7 :T


    Finishes today according to mysupermarket - guess where I'm headed this afternoon?! :p

    Would anyone like to make a guess as to where the speical offers bottles will go next - which store? Also will it go half price or BOGOF ? Such fun :T
    I was in both Tesco and Waitrose on Saturday and I made a point at looking at the Bottlegreen to see what flavours they stock :D

    We have been away for a few days so just chatching up but I now have 2 excuses to go to Sainsburys - Bottlegreen and the 25% clothes sale :D

    found a new one at last yay !!!

    on the mccains facebook page there is a new game called the chip chooser, you randomly answer 5 strange questions and then you get a 50p off moc for one of the brands of mccains chips depending on your answers (i got 50p off home chips)

    www.facebook.com/mccainuk

    then select chip cooser on the left hand menu cant beleive i found one at last, let us know which moc you got and if you remember what answers you gave as may help others.
