***NEW*** Tesco Clothes Vouchers. Updated First Post!

vellum

very unlucky today, SA questioned all the vouchers but willing to scan most and returned the rest, so paid the first lot but stop the second, will return some items to recoup the number..

will it be better to ask the SA if he is willing to scan all the coupons before he scans through all items? or just hand him all coupons before pay?

on the positive side, i found hundreds of new HB, and i still have lot of £2 off min £8 HB spend, if anyone have any blue clothes vouchers for swapping, pls pm me.

the $64M dollar question - what are you going to do if he says no, once you've asked. queued and waited????

I've tried a new tactic to me recently. I've walked the line and found the "person most likely to be scan happy chappie". When I've got to the front, I've held up my coupons and said "I've got *some tesco* coupons to use up, is that ok?". Generally, the've said that's fine. Then once the've done the total, I've given them the pile. The've already said they would scan them, so they have little choice but to try them all.

I picked up the £60 Sat Nav today, plus toileteries to allow me to use a full set of coupons, which effectively meant I'd spent £8ish extra to use £24 of coupons and therefore a further £16 off the Sat Nav. SA asked where I'd got all the coupons from! Quality.

Where in the shop would I find these vouchers?

I did a £60.00 kids clothes shop today but only 1x £6.00 qp & 1 x £6.00 yellow was accepted.
The £10.00 blue which I placed at the top went through a dream & so did the £4.00 kids blue clothes scattered in my voucher pile.

It could be that one of the items of clothing wasn't being recognised as "clothing" by the tills therefore the till wasn't recognising that you had spent £60.

I've had this happen on a £50 clothing spend. I spent £50 exactly and when I scanned the £10 one, it came up on self-scan something like "customer hasn't spent minimum spend". I had the transaction voided and chose some different clothes and the £10 one then worked.

I've never had any SA refuse vouchers. I pick a teenage boy and when I'm about to pay I say "I'm not sure which one of these will work. Will you scan them and see if they are OK?"

well I have 6 piles of vouchers to use today, the clothing set I am hoping to get £68 off a £60 spend and then of course the 20% discount should come off too - making a £12 discount so £20 profit for other items.

fingers crossed this works today, I have said before to SAs I have lots of vouchers to use is that OK, some just grunt and then when the time comes to scan them, they call the supervisor over !

what is the best time to shop?

tried late night after 2100 and few SAs on tills, not the best i suppose.
weekend tends to be shop full and long queue..

I then did a £30.00 sexey underwear shop (I don't like their other clothes I'm too young ) Used 1qp, 1 yelloow, 1 £6.00 blue mens, 1 £6.00 blue womens + £6.00 deduction. Free undies, I did top the shopping up with essentials.
Going back tomorrow & sticking to £30.00 shops.

Sorry to qoute my own. It was actually the till that bleeped the 2 lads I dealt with were more than willing. Even apologetic when 2 £1.00 toiletries were rejected, Bless.
I did buy 2 lots of kids flipflops & boy trainers. Perhaps the flipflops throu it.

The tills were full of lads at 5.00pm last night, I was spoilt for choice.
Also Saturdays is good, the stuff was going quick though, finding correct sizes difficult.

i know for a fact that ski wear does not count as clothes in regards to vouchers, i'm not sure if some seasonal holiday items may have the same effect
