    well well well, she did use vouchers meant for one per person and said about Dr Pepper etc so she must have done dodgy things to get the vouchers. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    to claim legal and tesco were ok with it is basically saying they allowed her to abuse the policies for the sake of tv

    gives coupon newbies the total wrong impression

    came across a thread earlier about that show
    they are all asking where she got so many coupons from.

    sad to say wasn't even tempted to tell them

    she was on daybreak too and admitted that she was not always doing things the right way and that Tesco were looking to ban her. That is what people who saw the program said.

    I think the problem is, people see money, hear journos quoting money and think ok, I will tell my story. NOT realising how they edit and make it look so different to what you actually said. She even said on the coupon thread, she had mentioned MSE but obviously this was edited and just as well!!!

    My advice - never talk to journos!
  • the ch4 article here she mentions mse
