Has anyone had problems with the Unilever VIP coupons not being accepted when the product is on offer?
I had a 50p off Surf which I tried using this afternoon in Morrisons where it's half price at £2.50.
Coupon wouldn't scan at SS and when supervisor checked it she said the terms state not to be used with any other offer so it can't be used.

I suppose technically that is correct. That does attend to appear on most coupons but very few actually read that part and usually just put it through no problems/ Sounds like you were just unlucky.

Morrisons self service tills always ask for assistance when you scan a coupon, unlike T's who will take a couple before asking for somone to check it, chances are if you went through a manned till it would have been ok.

hmmm...as I'm sure the lurkers at my local will confirm the ambipur 3evolution thingies have had a half price sel for ages at £4.50 (and still there tonight)...which ends today...the only reason I know this is cos I've got the £2 mocs and was going to get one at the weekend..but thought I'd wait and see if I could get it free with DTD tomorrow as well as using the coupon .... am confused as to why the offer is 'starting' tomorrow...when in my local its supposed to be ending...can only assume they're extending the offer!

But I will go check in the morning...altho wont be til about 10ish....we dont rush getting ready during the school hols .....Lurkers at my local...if it does scan at £1.50, could you please leave me a couple...many thanks.....;)

Hi all,

I managed to get some of the BBQ beef/lamb kebabs this afternoon - thanks to jodiemason mummy for this find!

Also got the Penguins 100% extra free - I hadn't been brave enough to get these last week as they were in a different place to the SEL but tonight they were right behind it. CS had a big conflab about it with each other and had to ring somebody first but eventually i got DTD - my first one - thanks to the OP (sorry can't remember who)!.

I was trying to keep a low profile at CS in the hope that I would be returning at some point soon with a big value DTD but my little twins made sure that we were noticed!! They kept wanting to give a high 5 to the CS lady - she was very nice and obliging but got a bit bored after about the 8th time!

Oh i also got DTD on a cucumber!!! There were 2 SEL's one for 80p and one for 90p

Loving the holiday pics Happy!

Do you remember which glacier you went snowmobiling on in Iceland? The hut looks like the one on Vatnajokull, which we went snowmobiling on 4 years ago. The glacier was great, but the drive up and down in the 4wd by sheer cliffs and crumbling road was a different experience! I couldn't bear to look much of the time. I'll see if I can find any pics of this.

just printed 2 ambi pur coupons for the hopeful misprice tomorrow. thinking of it though how can i justify giving a £2 coupon against something i think is supposed to be £1.50 and not £4.50

i just got back from my extra, and the meal deal worked:( with the 8 slices of garlic bread.:(
to make things worse they had sold out of all petrol, which was my main reason for going out.:(:(:(
ps would you believe it, i forgot my wallet when going to pay;)

There seem to be 2 identical (?) but differently priced garlic and cheese slices - 1 is in the meal deal and the other isn't. I had the £1.34 slices which looked correct according to the sel description but presumably were a different barcode.

when a newly painted thing has a sign on it, do you touch it.
apart from that we often print bc's so get something on a trial run. if a penny get it and go back for more.
if not just cancel item.
