    Didnt realise that this voucher was for charity use. Due to misuse it has now been pulled


    I for one will be donating the mix to my local church shelter ( albeit only a few as only got couple on each shop) as there is moneysaving and then there is moneysaving at the expense of others

    how are people getting wrights 80p off coupons small mine came out big :(

    I have kept my voucher big now as then they scanned which means less hassle. Just read that the voucher was meant for charity - I didn't realise that.

    Gutted that the merlin annual pass changed prices a couple of weeks after I bought mine, but between tesco and nectar have the passes for three of us. :)

    :eek:
    Asked how it obtained the voucher, Dave Shuttle of Coupons.com which publishes the Beforeishop website, said it had copied the voucher from the forums of the giant consumer website moneysavingexpert.com, where users had been posting pictures off the free bread they had baked.

    I made a mistake once, believeing people on the internet were my virtual friends. It won't be a mistake that I make again!

    that wrights bread coupon thing is well bad!!
    Bit bad how they've put on there
    moneysavingexpert.com, where users had been posting pictures off the free bread they had baked.

    Moneysavingexpert still had the links live today and members, under a thread title 'Ultra Couponers' said they were still able to use the vouchers today in Tesco.


    If people didnt know how can they make out everyone was gloating over it,
    maybe they should handle it better in future and send the coupons to certain companies or whatever it is they were for.
    You can't make someone love you. All you can do is
    stalk them & hope they panic & give in

    God created men first, cause you always makes a rough draft before a masterpiece!

    the bread coupon is now void. due to abuse:mad::mad::mad:
    life is like a loo roll. the nearer the end you get, the faster it goes.
  • And where in the title are we called 'ultra couponers' ?
    ...those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

    There's a fork in the road, which way will you go
    You standing still or will you step into the great unknown,
    Is yours to decide, this is your life.

    :(

    Feel really bad. I didn't know this was a charity promotion?!

    I agree. Moneysaving at the expense of a charity is pretty low.

    I'm sure no one will persist now this has come to light.

    :(
