    Went to sada this morning tried to use beans and reloaded coupons however they said sorry we can't take them because they are photocopies I reassured them that they were not! Then they said they could only take one of the beans because they have the same barcode- I explained PDF but that went over there head, I asked if we could take this to the customer services as the lady behind in the que needed to sit down as they were taking soo long umming and ahhing poor lady.

    So off we went to CS where they said oh we can take all the reloaded but only one beans, I was like I'd like you to check with someone senior now lol the duty manager then decided that i could only use one of each per transaction they would take my name and refund me the money if they were wrong ummm no I'm only buying them because I have vouchers for them -

    I was like so ur telling me if I put these through separately then that's ok, so I said ok I'll put them through the self service 1 by 1 they said well the SA will havta authorise each one - not my problem i thought so off I went to scan all bits one by and 2 items per transaction 2 coupons and nil to pay I was quite annoyed so didn't bother to buy the other bits so walked out with reloaded and beans nil else lol

    I wish all the supermarkets all sung of the same sheet with regards to coupons :D

    I like your style :D

    You have made me cry again. Such a lovely comment.:A

    Oh no :( that was not my intention - hopefully happier tears then :) I dont post much on here as I dont really have time to keep up with you all but when I get on I always try to check the cove and think its wonderful how you keep us all informed and how passionate you and others in here are about it so when I saw you were sad I thought you needed and deserved a pick-me-up comment :D x x x

    In USA they also use baseball card albums which have plastic inserts split into 9 small compartments dont we have anything similar here, must admit I forgot to look when I went to Florida but I was going to look in Office World (staples) or Walmart (Asda) I can imagine some enterprising folk in USA selling "coupon binders"

    Personally havent decided if I want to draw attention to myself with a huge binder, I sort my coupons before I go in & just take in what I'm going to use.

    Ooo thank you :) will tell him to look for baseball card albums instead :D

    As for drawing attention to myself, I'm too quiet to even attempt a DTD so the likelihood of me waltzing into any supermarket with one of those is very much non-existant!! I do the same with an envelope but wanted one for home storage, I have in the past put coupons down or in a drawer, forgotten about them and then re-discovered them after the expiry :(

    Ooo, wasn't there mention recently of reduced stationary in tosco? I might have a look... thank you, thinking outside of the box isn't something I'm good at!


    there was lots of reduced stationary in Tesco, but when I went back, it was all back up to normal price again. And this was in 2 T's. I dont know if they scan differently though

    I remember sitting at the table when I was about 3, when the Redifusion Man came with our first telly. I was so excited as I would be able to see 'Watch with Mother' .............. but there was something wrong with the set and he had to take it away :( I cried :(:(............... but he came the next day and got it working just in time for The Woodentops ............... and of course I fell in love with Spot the Dog

    Life seemed a lot less complicated then but of course we were only kids then.
    I remember when we first got a colour TV and the first programme I saw was Champion the Wonder Horse, do you remember that? I still remember the song!! And I couldn't wait to see the adverts.:rotfl:
