    have replied in red above to you.

    couldn't quote your original quoted reply to qwerty but thanks for the supersavvyme tip that you can print 2 for each store of the coupons and not just 2 each full stop-really didn't know that! Cheers! xx

    Ohhhh my lord i am so stressed right now! went to asdas expecting a rather large haul lol. Got 3xcampbells, 4xcomfort, 4xsurf with £1 unilever coupon, 2xclover, 2xhuggies pure wipes free with vouchers off the newborn box. Was a great haul, they had to double check the comfort vouchers but all was ok..... until i went to pay! Cos they have to call supervisor over when you hand so many coupons it messed things up a bit. I put my card in the machine, put me number in, as the woman with the keys was doin her thing, then got told to take it out..... then they told me to do it again, and again, and again! my bank was declining it! I had £40 in the bank to last me til next tuesday! shopping came to £30.98 so couldnt see what the problem was. Anyways ran to cash machine and could only take a tenner out so had to lend some money off the MIL. While i was waiting for them to sort the till out i checked natwest app on my phone and low and behold there was a transaction for £30.98 to asda. They wernt having none of it n told me it hadnt gone through, made me pay cash. Told me my bank would be 'holding' the funds. Anyways lo and behold that is what happened, and i now have to wait for the funds to 'drop' back into my account???!?!?!?!?!? I could scream i really could! Ive been on the phone to asda and the bank 4 times now, apparently i have to wait a few days for it to appear in my account again hopefully :( The tenner i would of had left was meant to put a bit of electric on and some food for the dog til tuesday, im pennyless and owe money to my MIL now!
    This happened to anyone before? Apparently theres nothing the bank can do, and nothing asda can do, i just have to wait!
    Good haul but i am NOT at all excited about it anymore lol :o

    p.s. sorry for the longgggggggg storey, just very stressed out

    The woman on checkout also put it through as a gift card on receipt which could explain a few things! I duno what im gona do with no electric and me poor dog will have to live off campbells and comfort :p
    jokes aside though they have really screwed me over. Im on benefits and cant afford !!!!-ups like this. No finance to fall back on (just my stockpile :p)
    Does anyone think i should put a complaint in or something? Asda doesnt seem to want to take the blame like
    As for them not accepting some coupons now, i used all mine and not a word was said! probably the s/a getting her own back on me for using so many coupons lol wouldnt surprise me

    This is probably really old news, but just saying incase it helps someone.

    The Utterly Butterly 30p PDF, if anyone still has it downloaded (as its been pulled and is in the gone but not forgotten bit at the front) officially runs out on 13th jan. Currently morrisons are selling this for 90p, so it would only cost 60p at the mo!:money:

    Thanks Lindos, I was going to ask this, so glad I caught up with this thread again - now I don't have to!

    Just wondering how the Beckton Tesco/Sainsburys are at accepting coupons particularly printable ones? I went to my local branches of them and they were absolutely crap, none of the stuff I had printed coupons for they had in, even the original Fairy liquid :eek: since the Beckton ones are pretty much on the way to OHs friends place we won't be going out of our way but don't want to make it a wasted trip if they are not coupon friendly....cheers

    Off to have a look at the pro-active (thank you ia).

    :eek: Not be using those coupons until there's a half-price offer on the cheapest spread!!!
    Tesco have the skimmed milk on @ 2 litres for £2 until 17/01. 50p per litre if using 2 coupons.

    Just noticed that they have 3 for 2 on all frozen food at M&S. Does anyone know if I buy say 3 fish pies at say £5 and 3 packs frozen peas for say £1, would they take off 1 x £5 and 1 x £1 or would they just take off 2 x £1 (the cheapest). I want to try and maximise the MOCs that were handed out before Christmas with the £5 off £25 spend and as my freezer is in need of filling, I thought this could be a good way.

    If your M&S has a SS till, put the 3 x £5 items though first, then subtotal. Not sure if it would work but worth a try?
