queen of cheap step back a moment hun. Is this your mess to sort out? If it's related to the works you've been putting up with then I'm sorry for your trouble, but you shouldn't have to put up with this. Outrageous! :mad: :A

I know what you mean, and no, its not "my mess" to sort out and my landlord has been very good about all this

I like things to be just so, and when they arent, it upsets my mental balance. Its hard to explain properly but in my head it makes sense :-)

Thanks :-)

SSM vouchers? :eek::eek:

OMG:eek::eek:, No wonder my local T's are getting upset about using vouchers. This is really taking there proverbial. I looked at the feedback and after 10 pages of vouchers gave up! People like this will ruin it for the rest of us.

Welcome Maz,:) stick around and you will learn a lot and have a good laugh and make new friends in the process.

A first step will be to put some of your receipts through the price checker on the T's website - go to the home page and scroll down and you'll see it. You can put ten through amonth, I think it is, and the ones without reduced items ("whoopsies") will be more likely to return a voucher you can spend in store. Hope that helps .

there is a few ways.

Frstly, both Tesco and Asda have a price check system, a promotional tool to show they are the cheapest. After doing your shop, you input the receipt details online and they will they either show you straightaway or email you to show if your shopping was cheaper elsewhere. If it was cheaper then they let you print a voucher for that amount (and an extra 10% if asda) which you hand in with your receipt at the till for money off.

Both these can be manipulated a bit to your advantage if our do your shopping cleverly, but by "Wombling" receipts and putting them in the computer you can get vouchers to save money, even though other people paid in the first place.

With tesco receipts you can also get clubcard points added to your account with any receipt at the customer service desk, as long as the person who did the shipping did not use their clubcard.

HTH

To add, both of these systems use the whole of your shop for comparison. EG, if you bought 2 things say a bag of crisps and a pint of milk. The crisps could be 20p cheapers elsewhere, giving you a voucher, but the milk might be 20p more expensive everywhere else, so the two combined mean no voucher.

By knowing what compares when you do your shop, means you can get a good discount voucher. "But whats the point in that?" I hear you ask.

Well at asda, you get an extra 10% back, so a saving off the cheapest price, which is better than nothing.

And you can combine some (not all ) multibuy offers and coupons (of which there seem to be lots at the moment, someone will point you in the right direction) you can get even more discounts off your shop.

There’s a new Tesco price leaflet booklet in my local paper - I suppose this should be on the coupon thread but I have posted it on here so as it gives the really smart cookies on here time to work out the best possible way of making use of the coupons:

£1 off £4 spend on yoghurts.
£1 off takeaway meal bag or box for two.
£1 off £4 spend on deli cooked meats/savouries counter.
£2 off £10 spend on Tesco finest easter eggs.
£1 off £2 spend - Tesco finest Bake at Home bread.

I know how you feel I'm the same.
I mentioned before I'd just moved house and had to decorate and carpet from top to bottom before moving in. The house was a dump. We had to pressure wash the woodwork before sanding it:eek::eek: I knew a new central heating system was going in so bought extra wallpaper for rad walls. Today I got a phone call it'll be central heating, new bathroom, new kitchen and rewire:eek: I cried down the phone all that money wasted and having to live in it while it goes on. I won't be able to cope with it.
QOC can I ask which carpet cleaner you use and which solution please:)
