Who was it that said (only a few days ago) that if the till was programmed to take the coupons that was T's fault?

All the coupons I used scanned not one of them had to be put in manually

What is this today, have a pop at FK again?

Yes, I did say that and I stand by it....doesn't mean a bit of common sense can't be applied when shopping does it?

My trouting yesterday got me thinking and on the back of that I try offering some helpful advice to stop people getting trouted or the SA's getting retrained and all I get is abuse and p*ss taking.

I have no qualms about maxing out on T coupons because these offers are very carefully thought out by them. I would be more concerned about overuse of manufacturers coupons where T does not take the hit.

Love to see it when offers are not well thought out.

I wasn't having a *pop* at you or abusing you, I was also putting my point across

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

Not read through yet, but these wipes are £2 each in Asda, so 70p jtd too!

Don't underestimate T . It is carefully thought out. How many magazines are printed, how many are available and where, which in-store offers run alongside the coupons, how the various different offers stack up, making the flops available on-line so they can be printed. It is all in their control. Each element of a promotional campaign has a budget against it and T can contol that budget up to the amount they are prepareed to take as a loss to get people in their stores.

And it clearly works. Paying with shrapnel and making the till ping zero (love that Mad ) means the customer is the winner. Doing a much bigger shop to "hide" the coupon use means that T is the winner. Even when using multiple coupons, their products are often still relatively expensive.

Just a game. Let everyone play as much or as little as they like without judgement

Only 28p from my 7 wombles from yesterday, hopefully todays will be more fruitful
