    Hi Discodee
    Perhaps you could try
    a) Change the time you go shopping - Sixish is good - the day staff usually gone - and lots of students on tills - and lots of people about
    b) Can you change stores - just for a while - often things "calm down" after a while
    c) Is there a waitrose - in general they treat customers a lot better and take coupons!
    Good Luck!

    Hi there! Thanks for your help, tried a) think they've all been put on red alert - doesnt work!
    b) no other tescos nearby and c) no waitroses in sight. never mind!

    what a horrible day on the normally friendly newspaper thread. I know I often don't post the full info as I normally think it is better to post something and alert people to a coupon sooner rather than later. Somebody else normally pops along later to fill in the info. Lets all be nice to each other and by the way were is crocker ???

    Chin up you two (ella2002 and LittleBill) there are coupons today! :j

    I think sometimes posts on t'internet can be read in a way they were not intended. Lets get back to the usual happy atmosphere on this thread.

    BTW as I have said before, Out of Date coupons will still scan, the till cannot read the date (except on coupons with a Tesco logo). I will use them a week or so late as I know that Tesco can still redeem them so I don't feel bad about this. So never chuck out OOD coupons if they've only just run out....
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    Just waiting for Saturday! Not had any coupons myself this week-been trying to stay away from the supermarkets but I will no doubt make up for it after I buy a few coppies of the Daily Mail!
    Many thanks to all of those regular posters who save us all an absolute fortune. I have about £30 coupon savings from April-not tops but Im very grateful to you all ((((((()))))))
