Good evening:D

PM, I think I found your printing problem. Did you upgrade your firefox?

Sometime, my mozilla firefox pop up to tell me to upgrade it but me always ignore it cos the newish always has problem with coupon net installation.

I reinstalled my firefox back to 3.6 and never have probs ever since.

Thanks Dr W followed your advise, it says my coupons will print and they don't, can't get beyone the printer install page really want to print so coupons aswell.

yes you can, but normally T would expect you to spend £90 in order to use both. but you maybe able to get away with just a £50 spend.

Thanks FT when trying to install coupon printer it attempts to create a folder but I can't tell what folder it's trying to create as there's no path displayed.

Also, compatibility mode doesn't make a difference, I've tried Windows 2000 and XP SP2 but still the same error stating it can't create the stupid folder.

Any ideas? Surely this app is Windows 7 compatible. Is there an alternative to the I'm using which appears to be made by something called "Coupons, Inc" [that's what it says on the installer].

PM i dont use win 7 (im on xp) but thats Definatly a compatabillity issue.I was getting that till i changes to 98.me compatabillity.
Might be worth trying to install another version of coupon printer that sometimes helps.
But to solve:(as i say i work in xp so may be a bit different)
- download the file to somewhere you know where to find it ie desktop
-right click on the file and click on properties(might be options in win7)
-There should be a compatabillity tab click on that
-Then from the drop down menu select the version you want to run in.Might be worth trying xp but failing that 98/me should work
-click ok/apply.make sure you exit that menu
-then double click and try to install

This solution did not solve all my but its the first step as it will let you install.Next is to try what worked for me which is the link at the bottom of that post.Also if it does not work in firefox try IE as i think its better with activex.I think doc has a point about FF some of my issues started after an update however subsiquently i have had to wipe that computer and the most up to date version of ff has been fine.

Good Morning. I'm way behind on posts but will get a cuppa and go back whilst it's quite:D

Better than the offer I found earlier in the week;)

All whiskas ordinary boxes of 12 pouches are £1.84 in Tesco until the 6th March (ONE WEEK ONLY) http://www.tesco.com/groceries/SpecialOffers/SpecialOfferDetail/Default.aspx?promoId=A29473945&sc_cmp=aff_1018132

Next week or when you have used up your daily mail/mirror cond spends then the code for a new account for £10 off £50 spend is XXAFFT

or your could buy the boxes in Asda and get them for £1.66 per box with the 10% cheaper. Don't buy them in Asda on Monday though and remeber that each flavour counts as one of your 8 items;)

My supermarket hasn't adjusted the price yet, hopefully before I go shopping it will have;)

Good morning lilly. Be careful planning your JTD as my supermarket does not seem to have updated some prices. Check against Asda and Tesco websites rather than mysupermarket;) A lot of people are complaining that their receipts over the last couple of days are coming us as not found as well:(
