    Sounds a good system to me............although be prepared for your first knockback, as the try after that is the hardest

    Indeed it is at one store when I became known for using vouchers I was followed around the store on several ocassions by one of the till supervisors, then I became paranoid for awhile but just decided to widen my net when it comes to tescoing and now I tend to rotate stores. I asked at one of my tescos and the SA said there are only a handful of people that use vouchers like I did so the chances of being noticed can be quite high and also depends on the stores size, how busy they are etc.

  • yes it can be quite nerve racking at times, i always get butterflys in my stomach when im walking up and down by the tills looking for a cashier that i have been to before, and i know they will be happy to scan my vouchers, i tend to use two tesco stores and now know most of the faces of the cashiers the good ones and the ones to steer clear from.
    dont wait for your boat to come in, get in a dingy and row out to it!!!

    Yes, all the above will combine. Used them a couple of times in the last two days. Possibly £4 blue will not scan. I did a £70 clothes shop (mens/womens)
    used £10 blue, £10 yellow, 2 x £7 yellow, 2 x £6 blue, 2x £6 new quit and 2 x get active. So free clothes:T

    Yes, if theres a £7 off £35 coupon around its always beneficial to do a £70 shop instead of a £60 to use 2x £7
    Couponing....."every little hurts"

    Half of the people can be part right all of the time, Some of the people can be all right part of the time.
    But all the people can't be all right all the time. .........I think Abraham Lincoln said that.

    I have had mixed sucesses/failures in the last few days. But on one occasion, after carefully picking young male SA, he refused my 2.50 off 10.00 voucher as i only spent £8 on beuaty/toiletries. I was confused as i had carefully spent only just over £5 after bogof. He said if i spent £2 more he would allow it. I also had £3 of baby wipes to 'disguise' the purchase, so he obviously classed my baby wipes as beauty/toiletries. So i skipped off and got 2 more packets of wipes and he allowed me to use them all. Now I know that baby wipes and infact baby shampoos/bathing are not classed as beauty/toiletries and the till knows it too, but i had already spent my £10 before bogoff so the till was happy, the jobsworth little boy SA was happy and baby wipes keep forever and don't get much cheaper than the tesco ones. So if you do need baby products anyway, it is a very good way of disguising your purchase.
    Does anybody know though if i were to purchase the 24p tesco soap to take me over the £10 is that classed as both Beauty and toiletries?
    Thanks everyone!

    Does anyone have an up to date list of which products are classified as both Beauty and toiletries?

    Also does anyone know if they are going to change their BOGOF's anytime soon - I am like so bored of Lynx shower gel...

    Yes - don;t forget you can use 2 x £1 off vouchers if you get nice Till assistant and you can use upto 5 x 50pointers if you also get nice assistant...

    Really to maixmise your voucher income - you're better to buy just two adidas deodrant really and then find something else which costs over £3.72which will brings you upto about a fiver spend before BOGOF's (herbal essences shampoo is perfect as it costs £2.78 I think from memory (!?! I am sad)...good luck
