    Well done Jeferey FD
  • Just a question about the gu coupon-does it scan at checkout ok if printed at approx 75% (my printer settings don't tell you exact percentage) in booklet printing or multiple pages per sheet? Its just the original is absolutely huge and will run out my ink in one foul swoop? Barcodes are clear (including number) and T&C is as well so presuming they are big enough....? xx
  • Anyone? The barcode on them is approx the same scale as the couponstar barcodes, the top of the bars of the barcodes is slightly fuzzy but then again was same earlier when I printed out a full size one so think that is just the image in the PDF xx

    no idea hun, I printed it full size at home. the ladies I have given it to at work, are printing at work full size, we don't have colour printers at work, so they are happily using work's black ink.

    shouldn't be a problem, worst comes to worst, SA has to type in manually, had vitalite coupon today, wouldn't scan. Printed properly but said to SA probably because I was low on ink, barcode not scanning and she agreed.
  • Thanks. Yeah I printed it on OHs b&w laser both full size and 80% and while most coupons don't look like a dodgy photocopy-the Gu one did :D So printed it on my colour inkjet printer but thought I'd try it multiple pages per sheet-unfortunately my printer driver does not allow resizing to a percentage in print dialogue box like OHs laser printer driver does but I would say it is around 75% as when I have reprinted similar at 50% it has been far smaller than these have come out, it does look legit and doesn't look like it has been resized so will probably try them out in Mr S tomorrow xx

    Can't help you there, as I did not print any of it, its too much black ink and its not worth the 30p moc.


    MT, I got an email from co-op to print a 50p flore pro-active I didnt print it yet as it says "you only have 1 chance to print" . Did any of you get it? I can only forward this email to my regular as it might have my name on it.

    they are for 50p off so fairly decent when the gu stuff is already on offer (will give you the puds for more than half price) and the ink is still free as came with my printer so not costing anything to me; but yeah I would resent printing them full size unless I absolutely had to :D

    I got a call earlier around 4pm as I was about to drive off. The caller said he is calling from Postcode Lottery.

    Asking me name, me said yes, my 1st question is : Did I Win?:D then me said you got to hurry cos' I am driving! He said oh, I shall call you back, me said yes you do that.

    Never got the call:rotfl: Do you think I won something? Or are they trying to get me to part with my hard earn cash?
