    With the dettol coupons, I had no luck printing them yesterday. All I got was a blank page come up when I tried to print off the one for £5....then a thank you for printing!!.
    Really wanted one of these too!!
    Tried again but it said I'd reached my limit!...
    Has anyone else had this problem?

    I used 2 different emails addys and they printed out fine both times.
    Unlike the ssm ones which my wife can't print out :(
    :(

    Had a great time in Tesco today using my SSM vouchers. Bought 7.5kg of Iams, and the 4 pack of Oral B Floss Heads. I had a lot of vouchers for both products, courtesy of my DH Facebook account and my own, but only a few of the vouchers would scan at the till, so the very helpful young lad suggested I take the rest of my vouchers to CS desk. The nice lady scanned the rest of my vouchers, asked me if I had bought the products to which I replied 'yes', and then handed me £13 cash!
    I am just hoping that my JTD voucher comes through to price match the 2 products. fingers crossed.
    On another note, my friend got DTD back last week of £300, as her partner did the shop, but when he got home he was moaning and groaning that it cost so much money. Anyway she had a look at the receipt and he had been charged £150 for a bag of Pears, instead of £1.50!! She couldn't believe that he hadn't realised.
    Needless to say he went back in the morning and the young lad on the CS desk refunded him DTD straight away. Apparently the older woman at CS desk was heard to be muttering you shouldn't have mentioned DTD!!
    This is the best DTD I have heard of, especially for a bag of fruit.

    It's always good to blame the OH for unnoticed DTDs, having to return stuff, needing duplicate receipts ... even when they're fictious! :D

    Another one to use the T's coupons and get JTD is

    Muller light (not the corners) 6 pack..

    T's £3.59 (only but one, as They are 2 for £5)
    A's £1.50.

    £3.59 - £1.00 (£1 off yogurts T's Price drop magazine coupon)
    = £2.59

    JTD £2.09... so you end up paying 50p for 6 muller lights..
    You can buy the 2 for £5 in T's but the JTD will be lower.. HTH

    Lol!!

    You have to buy 1 greetings card, they start from 65p but the cheapest I found was £1.89. When you pay you can also buy a £15 giftcard but pay £10 for it. So my initial outlay was £11.89.

    Then you use the £15 gift card to pay for the 2nd lot and so on so basically it's however many times you want to do it.They had no problem me doing it all all, either it didn't register with them or it's just no problem anyway.Each time you are "up" by the difference between the cost of the greeting card and the £5 free giftcard credit.

    You can either hang onto all the giftcards with the "change" on them or each time I did it 4 times I used the cards with change on them to pay and kept the new £15 card aside. I ended up with 6 x £15 cards and one with change and 26 cards!:T
    The original thread is here..I have thanked the OP profusely!!

    Your a star, now that was nice and clear even for me.... :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    Thank you xxx
    After my "trouting" by the manageress, she couldn't find anything in HO's instructions about the offer to say that you can't do multiple transactions in one day and use giftcards to buy more giftcards - it even says on the back of the giftcards that they can be used in full or part payment to buy any goods at WHS but NOT competitor giftcards!!

    Someone at HO didn't think this through properly!!!!!

    So I could actually take 20 cards to the till (If its a friendly person obviously) and do it like that.. Or do I have to take them one by one..???

    Here's a hypothetical question for you:
    Just suppose a person's dog does the ssm thing and get's lots of rewards...
    Would the dog have to print out his coupons from a different computer as the said person? Or would the dog be able to use the same computer as his owner without getting the print limit reached message? :rotfl:

    That is brilliant - thank you! Love offers like this and the cheese one posted earlier that put "basics" in the fridge at bargain prices. Keep them coming - think there will be a lot of scope with these mocs.

    On the apple/pears one, the moc will kick in on a pre-multibuy price, eg the Braeburn apple pack and the Conference pears pack are £1.80 each or any 2 for £2.50. Till "sees" the £3.60 price, allows the £1 off moc and then discounts the multibuy, so two packs for £1.50.
  • Hi - don't have a clearcut answer for you, hopefully someone will be along soon who does.

    But what I would say is that be absolutely sure that the person's dog really wants and needs another set of coupons and is not fussed about any possible SSM offers in the future. There has been a lot of talk on the coupon thread about linking fb accounts and IPs and people getting locked out for good and/or losing access to their fb accounts for abuse/misuse.

    Each coupon printed has a unique trackable number but I don't actually know what exactly it tracks. So you will probably be able to print from multi accounts to your hearts content, but it may come back and bite you somehow later. Some of the more long standing couponers have said it isn't worth the risk, but that has to be a decision for each individual.

    In any event, I am pretty sure the current crop of coupons is enough to build a healthy stock pile for the time being and another great offer will be along soon.

    I don't think the person's dog is of particular moral standing, he even fibbed about his age and claimed to be 47 years old when he registered for the offer. :A
    Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times and I'll smash your face in. :D
