Printed up a load of MOC's for a decent shop this afternoon plus a load of Kleenex Till spits and off I went in search of the little wipes plus various beanz and soups and reloaded and choka's.


Managed to find the little wipes (which the boss actually likes but thinks are a tad overpriced) hiding in amongst the toothbrushes, happy days but wouldn't, or S.A couldn't, get to go through the till - but did get my 12 new till spits.

So off to C.S desk where she could only credit me for the 12 x 74p (this was my first time getting them at this price as opposed to £1.49) but then I got another 12 till spits for some reason neither she nor I could fathom - so happy enough with that.

Next store was for Soups, Lenor, Beans, Savory Rice (32p) etc and got a £30 shop down to £6, of course I was pleased but had expected to pay nearly £14 :huh:

After getting home and cross checking everything on the second shop it appears I somehow managed to print out 12 Campbells Vouchers from last years email for free soup (instead of the current 20p off voucher) and they went through without either myself or the poor S.A noticing (although, he was swamped with vouchers but didn't hesitate, just kept scanning).


As I said, I only noticed this when I got home so my question is (if you're still with me) is . . . . .

Will this effect the S.A's till balance if/when someone reads the t+c's and notices that its a year out of date, whats the likelyhood it will be noticed? Really dont wanna have the lad getting grief over my mistake.

Should I go back (its a store I use a lot, generally without any trouting problems) and offer to pay the difference back?

Or is that more likely to get the lad pulled for not reading the small print.


Do any of you know anyone who work the tills in T - who could suggest the best way to handle this?

Dont get me wrong, I'll try to max out any loophole/glitch given the opportunity but dont wish to land anyone in the Campbells because of my error and dont wanna do anything that eventually gives couponing a tougher ride than we already sometimes get from those who seem to dislike us.


A long post (from me in any case) but this is praying on my mind all evening so any opinions will be appreciated.

Hi Raven

Something similar happened to me the other night when I was getting the Andrex Absorbing Sheets with the till spit vouchers. I had 3 of the sheets in with my shopping and after everything went through I gave him 2 of the till spits and the till deducted the amount no problems, but I didn't get anymore till spits which I thought was a bit odd, wasn't until I checked the receipt I noticed that the SA hadn't put through the sheets :eek: He'd scanned through 3 of something else by mistake. Which was why I didn't get anymore vouchers. After sitting in the car for 10 minutes debating what to do I ended up going back to the CS desk and explaining that the SA hadn't scanned my sheets, but had taken the vouchers for them and that I didn't want him to get into trouble (or me for that matter as I had used my CC doubt they would trace it, but I use a fair amount of coupons so didn't want to take the chance!) After a bit of working out by the CS guy and him going to get the vouchers back from the till, he put them through for me and I got more vouchers!

TBH, if it's a store you use a lot, it might be worth mentioning it at the CS desk if it's still bothering you. I know I probably would, especially as it was a genuine mistake. They'll probably not do anything anyways and it would make you feel better. I know I felt better for going back in and explaining what happened. Let us know what you decided to do

Just got back from t's and whilst up there I thought I would try the kleenex. My local store have not got any of the shine ones so I tried the eye and facial ones. The till split scanned fine on both items. No need for any override. The only difference from the other day was that instead of taking off £2.99, they took off £1.49, which is what they cost. They are also still giving out a till split for every one you buy.

Interesting, the stores we are using local to each other didn't pull the plug Sunday and yet have fixed the same time. Wondering if exact same store or if different areas update computer system at different times, a bit like areas have different prices. Not that it matters!

Sorry I forgot to add to my previous post, Option 2 was if I still wanted the blotting sheets, I could wait a bit and Tesco will be stocking them VERY soon.

Er... thanks, but no thanks. They may be useful to some, but I cant find any use for them, except for perhaps rolling tobacco! Will try later.

massive thanks iv just done the same and they are sending me envelope to return vouchers and get gift card .:j

I've just been updating my bzz thingy - seems to be something to do on there everyday, surveys or reports or reviews etc.

I noticed though that under the clubcard section I seem to have 27 lots :T When do the clubcard points get added to your account? I only look at my account about once every 2 or 3 months but I dont seem to remember having any points added on from bzz

Please do you have a barcode for the "eye and facial" ones, are these the pink ones?

I am quite tempted to go and have a look for these now.

Eye make-up wipes -(pink pack) b/c end 5592
Facial wipes - (purple pack) b/c end 4737
