• • Tesco Hi Mark,
    
    Thank you for taking the time to contact us about this.
    
    I have checked on this for you and can confirm that you can only receive a coupon for one per transaction. You can mix and match the different products but would only receive one coupon for cereals if that is all you buy.
    
    I hope that makes sense.
    
    Kind regards

    :think: :think: me thinks someone is telling porkies here

Ridiculous. I spent £12 on cereal (9 boxes Rice Krispies) and £20 on Andrex in one transaction today and got 4x10p petrol vouchers.

The SAs were clueless about the new promo as they had mixed the signs up and were showing last weeks offers and this weeks.

I also heard them tell customers it had to be the cereals pictured on the POS and that because it said "spend £6 or more" on cereals that spending £12 would still count as one voucher because it didn't say "for every £6 spent on cereal". :mad:

I had to warn one woman with 24x4pk Heinz beans that she might not get any vouchers because it was all new promos. She said she had noticed but because the signs were still up from last week and didn't have dates that she would fight her corner. :T

I was a bit unsure the cereal one would work for me when I was at the till. On the SS screen when I hit "Finish and Pay" a little message flagged up saying something like "2 x andrex 10ppl"

There was no message for cereal but I did get the correct number of vouchers pop out

If you claim to be the cheapest, call me old fashioned, but it helps to really be the cheapest,

Dear friends,

How quickly life can change. I've been planning to come on here all day and tell you how pleased I was with mine and DH's petrol savings this week, and respond to Locarr's kind enquiry about our village celebrations and post some pictures. Life's been ok for the last couple of days and I was feeling happy and optimistic.

And then I just logged on to teletext to catch up with the news, and in the local news was a story about a young man who'd died in a motorcycle accident on Monday, and the name was familiar. And then I realised that 2 days before he died, last Saturday, I'd married him and his lovely bride at a local venue, and that he was a particularly nice young man, who'd thanked both me and my colleague by name, and I'd got all the guests to stand up at the end of the ceremony and congratulate the new Mr and Mrs X. And now I'm sitting here crying at the sheer futility of it all. What a terrible waste.

So sorry to hear this it must have been a shock. Sending you big hugs :grouphug:

I'm pooped today! Was up til all hours sorting my stashes! :o:rotfl:My back is killing! And I totally blacked out this morning :eek: I don't know what happened but I missed about 10 minutes :eek: Still a bit shook up by it! Literally ran to the docs as I was late and didn't realise Mum had taken the car again. Luckily I wasn't too late and I made it there and back just before the heaven's opened!



I'm a fan of Activia 0% as opposed to Mullerlight. Theyre much thicker and creamier :D

Lion cereal.....YUM YUM YUM YUM!

Hope little Molly's not feeling too sorry for herself when she comes home :A Lots of cuddles I'm sure tonight :)

Blacked out :eek: that's bad bad bad F_C - hope you are ok now hun - thinking of you :A

Argh - that Lion cereal - no I haven't tried it before, but I will now And I love the vanilla snack-pot Activia yoghurts but never seem to see them now

I have spent half of this evening nursing Molly on my knee as she slept and the other half stopping her from chewing her buster collar :eek: :eek: It didn't take her long to get used to having it on and working out that she could edge it forward and get her bottom jaw over the edge to chew it :mad:

What a terrible story Lutzi. Such a waste of a young life. As others have said, life is so precious - never take it for granted

Today not a great day for APG. So far only managed £5.xx, £2.xx and £1.xx but I have others that I need to wait and check later

Sainsbobs on the other hand....I got LOADS of conditional spends and bonus points. But only because I "borrowed" a bin bag :rotfl::rotfl:

A good buy for JTD and petrol coupons apparently is KELLOGGs Variety pack. £2.09 in Mr T and £1.00 in Mr A. Thanks to Josie on the JTD thread
