Good mornig

I see loreal insider has some more vouchers again, on the age wipes which are £4.70 each and bogoff at Mr T, using 2 of the vouchers at £2.50 will give an extra 30p off your shop, so I will be getting a couple of those with my m-a-m packs and hopefully another cool bag too, and maybe some peaches yumyum, and i'm cooking for 9 today who said fathers don't do anything.

Go for it nerfdad What's the worst that can happen? - the SA says only one per transaction. Just very politely say "oh, sorry, didn't realise" and say you no longer need the items - and equally politely ask them to void the MAMs. Do you have more than one store nearby? If it doesn't work at the first, move on to the next one ......

Just pick a bored looking young lad hand him the coupons and hopefully he just scans them all

The only thing to watch is that some MAM are £2 each and not £2.50 like beef chunks, ham batons and a couple of others, so the vouchers won't kick up to the £3 spend if your buying a lot of packs.

Ok you i will go for it-if this was 1 of my boys i would tell him not to play with you lot as your all bad boys and girls:D

Just make sre if you are getting a lot in one go that you have enough other shopping to cover the shortfall - a negative total can worry some SAs, but others will just tell you do quickly grab something to go over. Best avoided though
