    It would also help if all T's staff were correctly trained, today I had a SA hand me back the receipt unmarked after taking a PP, I said to her she needed to sign the receipt, yesterday the SA told me, "theres a receipt in here" and handed it back to me, I always fold my PP's with the receipt inside, I agree there is no excuse for greed/fraud but I can see where folks would be tempted.

    Not possible now anyway as all vouchers are one use only. I wouldn't bother educating the staff, just tear them up so a fellow wombler doesn't get caught.

    Can I ask a question to all those that are buying loads and loads of pop?

    What is the expiry date on it please? Something in my mind tells me that kind of thing is very short dated (or at least the diet/zero versions are) and pop is one of those things that once passed it's date isn't really all that great anymore.:(

    Westie and I have forgone the pop glitch as we have given up sugary drinks.:beer:

    No, no I didn't. I can't even look as I've only got a €10 note. What's the reason behind it?

    The letter is in front of the No.s.

    Spain is V, Germany is X, France U, Greece Y, Ireland T, Portugal M and Italy S. Belgium is Z, Cyprus G, Malta F, Netherlands P, Austria N, Slovenia H, Slovakia E and Finland L.

    Another € fact - all the No.s added up & then added again & again until you get a single figure, it will correspond with the Printing country.

    i.e Germany is X & its printer code is 2

    X37590962348 = 56 5+6=11 1+1=2

    I honestly can't see how people can cheat on these unless they are given receipt back. Not being judgemental here at all because I play most things right up to line but surely using the one pp at Tesco more than once is very dodgey - in other words wouldn't they be afraid of getting done for fraud?:(

    I'm not getting in to the right or wrong debate because everyone has a differing opinion onw hat line you can cross. As I have jsut said in another post, it is not possible any more as each voucher is single use.

    APG however can be used (if YOU choose) more than once if not signed. This is a T&C break and as yet has nopt be proven in a criminal law as an act breaking the law. This line is debatable, but not with me! :p

    Thats not true I have been told by someone that reuses PP whenever possible, but I always dispose of my receipts in the shredder at home once they have been used.
