    :eek::eek: I just read that, at least it didn't mention us on elite 11+ or we'd be inundated...
    "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. The supermarket failed to return our call to explain why."

    Crikey :eek::eek:

    Pretty sure they are referring to us though, as the picture that they have posted was one from this thread :eek: Hope nahteb20 is going to get some kind of credit for the picture!

    I bought 2 packs and am willing to send my £1.60 back to MS ... I wonder if the Daily Mail would publish it if we all did the same?

    Okay. post 200.

    Do I get a wee star? (Ooh, so excited!)

    Just thought I'd use a milestone post to say thanks to all the lovely people on here. Not just for the bargains and money saving tips, but for the kindness you guys show to all the people on here who need support, advice, or simply a "well done" or a hug. :)

    It's plain to see that there are a lot of folk out there for whom this thread (and the wider forum) can be a real lifeline.

    Keep up the good work guys. :T :T :T

    btw. I had a look back at the original Wrights pdf doc. Stop feeling bad, guys. It doesn't indicate anywhere that it was purely for charitable use.

    Lovely 200th post. Well done you :cool:

    A bit off-topic but in the spirit of not taking bad customer service lying down thought I'd share in case others may not be aware. It's in relation to NHS dental charges.

    Visited my NHS dentist in late December for a repair to a filling. Got charged £47. In early Feb I needed a minor repair to another filling and got charged £17.

    As I've just turned 60(:() I was looking at what help I could get with costs...none it turns out, but no matter. What I did notice however was that if you require any further treatment, in the same price band, within two months of your last treatment then it is free. Checked with my dentist and was told no it only applies if it is on the same tooth. Contacted NHS online to say that the info was incorrect. They came back to me to say that the info online was correct and asked if I wanted to take my dentist to a dispute procedure? Now I don't mind taking on Tesco CS but I'm not sure that I want to take on my NHS dentsit and then find I have to go private:eek:.

    I let it go but had to go back again the other day as the original tooth repair had broken and again raised this issue. Was told again by reception that it only applies to a 2 month guarantee on work. They even went to check with my dentist who said the same. I was quite adamant but didn't want to get into too much of a dispute and left it at that:(.

    I had a phone call about an hour later from one of the reception staff to say that they had looked online and sure enough I was right:) They would check with the practice manager who the next day confirmed that I was right and they needed to work out how they could give me a refund. Result!:)

    Just for those who may not know any new work in the same price band, within two months of the original work, is free. Any work that has been carried out and requires further treatment within twelve months and in the same price band is also free. This is not age dependant HTH:)

    Glad I only got 2 bread mixes and not loads - have deleted the voucher and wouldn't have got any if I had known. Hopefully the MS charity who it was meant for will receive some donations.

    The coupon never said anything about the MS charity bake, turns out there were 3 pages and the final one which did have info about the bake was chopped/deleted before it was posted or got to any of us. Even so.
    On a lighter note, I see Nahteb posted the pic of the ciabatta on her 1p leaf tray:rotfl:
