Loving French Knickers fashion tip over on SSM.....

If you have some baler twine left over after making a belt to hold your trousers up, you could make a matching pair of braces. Do make sure its colour coordinated though. Red twine and green twine simply don't go well together.

Hubby just back from Tesco...been trouted with £1 SSM coupons...attempted to buy fairy £1 and flash £1....coupons wouldnt go through so off he went to Customer services who told him in no uncertain terms that he cant use them on items costing only £1...cos "we cant just give things away ! ". I used some last week without any problem. Is it worth emailing Head Office ?

Yeah defo contact HO, youre not the only person to have problems though, just seen this on the coupon thread

"I was in Tesco today and all of the staff members have a copy of the Persil and Comfort coupons on the till telling them not to accept them."

Ya have to laugh, next it will be where did you get that £10 note from... sorry havent seen them before, sorry we dont accept them...!!!! :rotfl:

Actually no its not worth contacting HO.

It normally states on coupons that they are not to be used inconjunction with any other offer. Why raise your profile with HO over something so petty? Save the call for when you really need it.

Just go back and go to another cashier. They'll take them. Its just a game...don't take it all so seriously.

The persil and comfort ones are copies from a PDF that was pulled from the manufacturers website. I wouldn't push the issue with these personally. I've used a couple but only a couple and if challenged I'll apologise and tell them to throw them in the bin.

Yeah £600 for train fares seems too much.:eek::eek:

I'll have a look later and see what I can find if you like?

Public transport up here is ok, just everything is so far away you might have to spend a night away from my flat now and again and all that extra cost adds up.:(

Have you tried trainline.com? Also try split ticketing as it saves a fortune!

Just quoting"bumping";)bookworms earlier post about the new booklet with coupons in

Just managed to get DTD on Duracell batteries.
I actually didn't realise until I had driven out of the car park so had to go back.

She walked over on her own and came back and advised me I had brought the wrong product, I advised there was only 1 product on the shelf I picked it up from. She argued advising me I picked it up from the shelf and I had been charged correctly. I then asked her to follow me and I would show her where they were, 2 very large cardboard boxes filled with them taking up a whole shelf with 4 sel all advising b1g1f. She pulled them all out and huffed and walked back to CS desk.
She advised me the easiest thing to do would be refund them all and then charge them through correctly. I advised would it not be easier to give me DTD as per there policy.
She gave me a full DTD refund but refused to give me my receipt back and as I was leaving made a phone call holding my receipt so not sure who she was calling. Can we get into trouble for using DTD?

I brought 4 packs of AA and 2 packs of AAA would of cost me £29.94
