    Quite a decent shop quoia, but where's the wombles from Sainsbury's:cool:

    Some people are reporting that the till is only accepting one of the beer coupons and any others need sa override/manual input, did you have any problems?
    Be thankful for what you have because it could all be taken away tomorrow.;)

    MAGS the Asda huggies box is back BUT it has gone up in price to £5.47 and you need a real email addy as the coupon is sent to you.


    Hi Thanks Blue, I see that it is different. Only lets you print 1 as well :( and the barcode is a manual input from what I can tell so no more free dosh...

    On the bright side though it is back and Im going to take full advantage of that! Asda ain't gonna get the better of Madame Cholet.

    Also have printed current month's loreal and they seem to have fixed it now so you can only print 1 too. What is it with these people, lol.

    Also, Hi to SnD, sorry but I answered your pm before I saw your posts about your poorly back. Do hope you are feeling better now?

    seems like a few of you are feeling a little yukky boo so am sending positive vibes to you all through my words x

    Thanks for your f.b post Blue, Im sure I mentioned my Rimmel win yonks ago. I won the flippin thing in March and never received it so I had a whinge and lo and behold it arrived within days. The power of the written moan, lol. Thanks Blue also for the wrapp stuff. seems interesting.

    It was not much, a signed novel and a rimmel goody bag. Better than a poke in the eye and all that...

    Have emailed supersavvyme about the absence of my l2s vouchers from mc and have not had a reply, so raspberries to them!
    Love, through the trees, past the sky, beyond the northern lights; and I won't let go. May your soul and spirt fly sweetheart x

    Well the first couple of shops were a week or more ago.

    I used a SS till on both occasions and I thought it was just the "usual" multiple coupon issues regards requiring SA assistance.
    The exact details I posted here

    https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/comment/54518647#Comment_54518647

    As for today I used a manned till and there was a similar issue which caused a supervisor to be called - we did have a "discussion" regards the T&Cs and the "bulk usage".
    I just said I'd used 6 before (actually 7), it DOES SAY 1 PER PRODUCT AND NOT 1 PER TRANSACTION

    It actually says under "TO SAINSBURYS"

    "Only one voucher per product purchase can be redeemed"

    Under "TO THE CUSTOMER"

    "Only one voucher may be presented with each product purchased. Bulk vouchers will not be accepted"

    I'll be calling Sainsbury's CS Careline in the morning to clarify what BULK means ?

    100 Definitely
    50 Probably
    25 Possibly
    12 Maybe

    6 or 7 - you must be joking :rotfl:

    The supervisor today initially suggested that I could use all of them but only in a "1 per transaction" method

    I said something along the lines of "I'd be paying by credit card and before I get to the end of doing 6 transactions in 6 minutes in the same shop for the same amount, my credit card company will have blocked the card from further usage, probably after 3.

    (This happened once some years ago and they called me at home about 2 hours later just to check it was me using it - what they called "abnormal usage/pattern" had tripped their monitoring software - at the time I was using NatWest Mastercard)

    Anyway, she grumbled a bit and then did an override of some sort.

    Back to a SS till next time.

    RE "where's the wombles from Sainsbury's" - not sure what you mean?

    Tried to read back a bit through the elite thread, it virtually grows as you read. I have the gist of something going on with pork chops, but I lost the will to live, have the beginnings of what can only be a heat headache, so was wondering if anyone on here has got to grips with the porkie goodies and wouldn't mind sharing with me how to partake.

    So, the Bavaria is still good to go then? I meant to check my sm earlier and got distracted by a water gun and dog poop situation - don't ask, lol.

    Managed a non Bavaria sainsburys shop today, wearing a strapless top, hot and bothered from shopping, stuffing my bags at the ss tills, and almost lost a booby! Not sure I would have got extra nectar points for that lol but it did give the young lad manning his post something to smile about (well I hope so anyway), lol.

    Just checked emails and have a pdf 50p off bonne maman products. Check yours There are some packs of bics at 89p in Tesco and Sainsburys so this would make them cheap x

    also an email for £1 off clover, seems to have a unique code on it so only print one, if you can work out how to print the flippin thing. check your emails. x
