2012 was great for glitches but it was also a year for huge coupon abuse.

I can see more and more companies not bothering anymore.

Anyone seen any palmolive coupons recently ?

I posted yesterday or the day before about the Andrex coupons on ebay.
They were obviously photocopies of the ones you get when you complain about something. So even real ones sent in the post are scrutinised at some stores.

The seller said they were high quality downloadable coupons, but I've never seen downloadable £5 coupons, and they'd sold hundreds of them.
Don't know why Ebay don't stop them from selling them.

The concert is at the Arena, but will stay central, been a few times too, we love it, the art galleries are fantastic and Ann Franks house a very moving place to visit.:)

I adore Amsterdam, I lived there on a Uni placement for three months working with homeless drug users and prostitutes, none of them Dutch, loads of them Brits who went there in the 70s, tripped there way through the eighties, and now the UK will not let them back in.
Its a huge bugbear of mine that these folks have to pass the Habitual Residency Test to get back to their own homeland. I know they made bad choices, but so do loads of other nationalities.
Oops, probably offended half the posters on here, but I really got to know and care for these people and it breaks my heart every winter knowing some more will die on the streets.:(
Soap box empty for the next person.

I have seen a fake £3 one and believe me it was shocking looked like it had been printed as a text document rather than photo etc. Only printed on one side and unreadable but obviously the barcode must scan because they would not know from reading it what it was for.

The ones I saw showed photos and they looked identical to t real ones and the seller was registered as a business seller with 100% positive feedback.
