    Can I please ask again how you work the shandy/beer at S. Going a trip this afternoon as I was fortunate enough to get some coupons, but its a long way away for me to go not knowing what I am doing, thanks.

    The glitch is that you buy 7 beer, use 7 vouchers, pay £10.50 and get a £10 Brand Match till spit come out. (you have to get this many because you have to buy 20)

    However - the tills at Sainsbury's no longer accept 7 coupons without being overridden. Many (including me) go to self service where normally the person watching over them will pop up to help you scan all 7 by putting them through at once. Then ask him to put your coupons through manually showing him or her tha it does say 1 per product not transaction.

    You may be trouted. :money::eek:

    Morning All

    Working and lurking again today.

    Haven't been able to catch up with yesterdays posts yet so hoping I haven't missed any amazing glitches.

    I was in Superdrug yesterday and the reduced shelf had own make shower gel for 10p, so may be worth a look if your passing.

    We still have a cupboard full of the Original Source shower gel from Mr S earlier in year :D, probably 2 years supply.

    The idea until last week was that you took 7 packs of beer to a manned till and handed over 7 £1.50 coupons. No problems, the SA sanned all coupons. Because you had spent over £20(ie 7 packs of beer at £3.00) you got a brand match back for £10. However you had only spent £10.50 by the time your coupons were deducted. Yoo then repeated the exercise using your brand match.

    Now it is a little bit sticky. Most of the time the SA is refusing to take more than one coupon cos computer says no. Now mse folks are reporting that it is best to go through a ss till rather than a manned till ( it has been said that the ss till operators can override the coupon rejection)

    Some report major success whilst others report failure!!

    Others please edit this if I have missed anything.

    Good morning all, finally caught up (for now!!)

    You lot don't half go on - have you any idea how disheartening it is to think "yes, last page" and then have another page come up :rotfl::rotfl:

    Glad to see someone earlier mentioning using a £6 off £40 and £5 off £40 together, should be able to use my £2 off £20 too as it is a clubcard issued one.

    How many of the Febreze aerosols has anyone dared to buy at any one time? Might be the only way I can spend anywhere near £45 to use the vouchers!!! Only problem is the stash is now taking over the "spare" bedroom with the Lenors as well!:eek::eek: Think I will have enough air freshener to last several years so will be able to donate some when my DD Leaves home (yeah, right :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:) and when my DS and his fiancee find a home!

    My Sainsbobs will only allow one coupon before SA has to overide, even my healthy start vouchers and it's only one..:eek:

    The beer coupons say no bulk, what does bulk mean, to me that means Warehouse size...:)
