    Right I thought this deserved a post of it's own.

    I was in A's today and offered up coupons from the internet (Bertolli, Ariel & five beans) I went to a SA that was present on the night of my mega trouting.

    Following my call to HO, ALL till staff, supervisors, checkout manager etc have all been re-briefed on coupon acceptance.

    Up the side of ALL tills (I checked them all ;) ) is a black folder with a list of do's and don'ts and what coupons are to be DECLINED. I was shown it they are as follows

    KC - £9.00 :eek: (Looked just like the £3 ones we got given recently from the Kleenex in store promotion)
    PRINCES - £5.00 :eek:
    HUGGIES - £5.00
    KELLOGGS - £3.00 :eek:(this was such poor quality)

    ALL OTHER COUPONS ARE TO BE ACCEPTED INCLUDING INTERNET PRINT OFFS

    The SA said that all staff were verbally told this too. Now I know MT was told something different, but this was what HO told me and now it has been put in place.

    I also told the SA that the coupons that are to be declined are fake and are being sold on ebay - she was shocked. I told her to inform her supervisor. I hope I did the right thing?


    No wonder stores are more and more strict in accepting the coupons.

    While browsing on ebay found these £5 huggies coupons and these ones look dodgy to me...:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::o:o:o:o

    Shame they are spoiling the coupon policy for everyone,,:(

    Morning all...:)

    thanks for posting this FV

    this makes alot more sense than drib & drabs & inconsistancies people are being told

    i have emailed asda ceo as was fed up with differing stories, will post reply it & when i get one


    WELL GET THIS

    just rang asda HO again and now saying yes ok to coupons

    so right or wrongly pointed out that staff are on different pages and saying different things, shes contacting my store

    & hopefully says something in her office as i told her few days ago was told complete opposite
