    OMGosh! Thanks for the encouragement. I have just got to try again - GULP

    I forgot to mention that I also tried asda but was told that they'll accept the 20p off products etc but not these - maybe I just look terrified!

    just 2?? my local takes 5 in one go ;-)

    ah yes but I didn't mention the other 20 vouchers the SA scanned at the same time ;) by the time I have healthcare vouchers, toiletry vouchers, clothing vouchers and points vouchers it is already a sizeable bundle.

    One store I shop at will take 20 unique vouchers - so if I go there I stick by the rules and hand over 20 non-identical vouchers and save lots. If I am using Daily mail vouchers I simply split my shopping into different transactions.

    How many daily mails did everyone buy yesterday. I bought 13 in 2 shops, but I wondered if I should have bought more? Or would that be ridiculous?

    I bought 10 but have already gained a few more through swapping vouchers

    bought 25 i think! thought i would go to one shop and get them all, but supplies seemed low everywhere... wonder why!! got 15 from WHSmith, and 3 each from 3 of local papershops. Part of me felt like a really sad & tragic individual... but theni kept thinking i will save about £80-90 quid so keep going. Haven't quite managed to get to tescos yet tho to spend any!

    I thought I'd just start with 6 and if it goes well get more next time. My kids went and delivered the papers through the neighbours doors. I wonder what they though.
