    I QUITE OFTEN USE SELF SCAN ITS A GREAT WAY TO GET YOUR COUPONS USED AND TO USE COUPONS FOR PRODUCTS THAT YOU HAVE NOT BOUGHT:T

    Our self scan only accepts 3 vouchers before it beeps.
    SA would only take 1 voucher from me yesterday even though I bought the goods for 2 other vouchers. TBH I felt really angry. I had done a shop with the vouchers in mind, Active8 and whole foods....but she just would not take the vouchers. If Tescos are handing out vouchers to encourage people to buy the products and then refusing to let you hand in the vouchers....surely that's cheating .. misleading ...trickery ..
    I didn't fuss as I didn't want to draw attention to myself. I will just go voucher shopping at weekends.

    It would take too long to write out the users guide....go and try 2 or so items with the help of the SA, as 20 items is the same....when youve got the knack, come back for coupon use.........but see below.

    With respect here, you must be spending a lot more than the value of the vouchers you are using...as your tills couldnt accept 3 , all the time.

    I used these regularly before Christmas.

    I could only use one £5 coupon on a spend over £20....before it called for authorisation on the next.

    There is no specific answer to the OP's post, as it is all worked out on your spend, and the value of your initial coupons........and even up to the store to make its own policy on this.

    When I regularly used these(upto 20 times a day), they were still a bit of a novelty, and 95% of the SS assistants would allow me £9 worth of coupons on a £10 spend..........I dont think it is as lax as this now.

    I used to stand with a plastic bank bag showing a £4.50 CC voucher.........so if the SA glanced......she thought they were both £4.50 CC vouchers.................

    Some SA's will allow anything, some will allow even less than the norm.....
    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 haven't tried it but I imagine you can! It is a beauty item!
    There are always things I am not sure about-like sponges, cotton wool etc...
    I think about buying them to top-up my £10 spend but am worried incase they don't work and I miss out!!!

    Can any one tell me if the impulse cans come under both beauty & toiletry or just one.
    I'd have to buy 6 to get to £10.00 if my sums are right.
    Anyone recommend which fragrance to get as I can't get on to Tesco site. (PM fragrance save blocking thread or post on here if daring )

    Thanks

    Yes you can, I have done recently.
    Real men never follow instructions; after all they are just the manufacturer's opinion on how to put something together. :p
