    Yeah we used too have two in c1ift0n. One in clothes and in down DIY. The one down the DIY in no longer there and there is just a hole where it once was. :eek: The one in the clothes department has got clothes pressed against it. Whenever I do the MS in there I put that in the other comment box. However, they don't really care. :mad::mad::mad:

    I think they'll slowly get rid of all of the scanners. They don't like to make things too easy for us! Do other supermarkets have scanners? Forgive my ignorance, but I rarely use Mr A or Mr S because they're too far away. My guessing is if they don't T's won't see why they should.
    Ok I have just FB them lets see what the outcome is :think:

    with 2 mocs, it makes these 75p a bag.

    Thanks for this I'll grab some before the coop goes. Asda build a new store. :mad: I don't really mind driving about 5 miles to the other one. Planning is currently going through. However, Why Bother Council will let them get it as they are going to [STRIKE]bribe[/STRIKE] build a new market hall for the council. It has got to be a joke Why Bother Council spend thousands recently renovating the library and re roofing it. Booths are moving into the old coop. I'm just hoping they will not knock into WHsmith as where will I get my Lego.

    Ah ok. Thanks. :)

    That's handy. Don't see why they don't do this for the whole of the UK though, as I don't really see how that could be abused/taken advantage of?

    You used to be able to take advantage by stacking the voucher together. So say you got one for £5 off a £50 spend, £4 off a £40 spend, £3 off a £30 spend. So you would hand over the £5 off a £50, then the £4 off a £40 and finally the £3 off a £30. So if you did not have any other coupons you would pay £38. ;)


    You used to be able to but that was scrapped. :(

    It was so much better than that :D You could stack any cs of any denomination, including the same amount of the same spend, as long as they had a different barcode, and they all scan against the single threshold. So, in a good week you would have eg a T £5 off £40, an A £5 off £40, an M £5 off £40 and maybe one for M & S or the Co-op or Sainsbury or Lidl. All coming off the same £40 shop. As soon as a coupon appeared in a newspaper the first thing that was asked was "what is the barcode?"

    There was a spell last year when every week there were two or three conditional spends in the newspapers and it was lovely, but of course that was what led I think to them being scrapped.

    I think in NI they have only reintroduced taking competitor price comparison vouchers and not conditional spends?

    I'm so glad that people are getting the kids activity books. I have been a lurker for a while so it is really nice to be able to share something with you all and finally contribute something!

    I went to a different store today and got three more, so very happy!

    Thanks for bringing them to our attention, I got 3 today. Got DTD without a problem but CS SA checked each one to see which one was going wrong and was the pirate one, hoping to try and get more tomorrow.
