    Morning all :D

    Sorry, I should have done that :o

    I used a few of the Price Flop coupons as previously posted (thanks OP) which are now expired (berries, fruit, mushrooms, salad, ice cream and multiple cakes ;))

    Also multiple PDF 20p coupons for Lotus biscuits, which were on offer until yesterday (though will be almost as cheap with the new biscuits coupon coming up)

    A couple of the £1 SSM coupons for Febreze Air Freshener which is on offer 2 for £4. A 30p Vimto coupon from the current Tesco magazine.

    The rest were mainly wombled till spits so will depend on whether you have them :cool::

    £9 off £60 spend
    50p off Fairy WUL (like I really need any more :rotfl:)
    £1 off Ariel Stain Remover till spit + £1 SSM voucher against £2.22 Ariel Stain Remover Blue Spray
    £1 wyb Always Ultra Night and Always Ultra and 50p off any Always Ultra till spits - bought 2 and both worked ;) (Always Ultra currently 2 for £3)
    £1 wyb 2 x Always Liners and 50p wyb 1 x Always Liner - bought 2 @ £1.10 each and both worked ;)
    £1 + 75p till spits off cards, plus the 50p coupon from the mag - I spent £4.50 on cards but not sure if you could get away with £3 as this is the minimum spend on the £1 and 75p vouchers ;)

    Also no vouchers, but stocked up on Anchor butter which is 2 for £2 at the moment so works out cheaper than the value butter :D

    HTH

    Thanks, a very comprehensive reply and seems like you did a lot of thinking for that shop. Well done again. :)

    I know its been discussed before about putting the thread elsewhere to avoid lurkers who are happy to take from this thread but put in nothing,

    so I have a suggestion.....we should start the next thread in DT;), you have to be a member and be logged in to view that area......what does anyone else think?:cool:

    I know I'll get no thanks from the lurkers for it but then again I never do!!:rotfl:

    bye bye lurkers!!:T

    We could always set up a secret FB group............ :whistle:

    Yes it certainly took some planning :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Not sure that I have the time to do that too often, but was pleased with the result :beer:

    The weirest reaction I had was actually in Boots. I had MOCS for Olay wipes and I was getting 4 packs and putitng them through the till seperatley (I think this must have been a SSM MOC ???)

    Anyway with each transaction I got a 30p MOC till spit for snadwiches, none of which I was using.

    So I went to the sandwich fridge and found 4 people with sandwichs in their hands or baskets and I gave them all a voucher.

    They were all thrilled and overjoyed to get a voucher - I was quite taken aback by the reaction espeically as every person I gave a voucher acted the same, it was only 30p, nothing life changing but everyone loved getting a voucher :D.

    Def did my good deed for the day that morning.

    I have done this a few times too, I think mainly people are suspicious and think 'whats the catch, whats she up to, whats in it for her' as sadly people are not expecting a stranger to be genuinely helpful.

    I was once accused of trying to 'sell' vouchers to a lady, as she could not 'get' that I was just offering them to her for free:mad:. It will not stop me though, as there are others who are very greatful, and its nice to brighten up someones day!

    Hello everyone. :wave:

    I've recently found this thread and thought I would join in.

    I'm addicted to using coupons, and looking for offers and hope to contribute to the thread.

    Yesterday in Mr T's I found Frozen Quorn Fishless Pie reduced to clear at 57p.

    Hope that helps :)


    welcome coupon lady and morning to the other mse'ers ,

    Lovely day made better by the arrival of the free sample of big bright clipper tea bags plus a 50p off coupon on the packet .

    Have a sunshiney glitch grabbing tantastic day .
    I was young once , now I get older all the time .
  • Sorry I'm a bit nervous and new to posting and probably going to be asking a lot of daft questions.........

    What's the etiquette for clicking on the Thanks button?
