DAILY STAR

Coupon for FREE bottle of CIDER - BULMERS ORGINAL - a FULL PINT (568ml) worth £1.68

Exchange at ASDA between 12TH May (TODAY) and Thursday 17th May

If you've bought multiple copies of The Daily Star for the Bulmers Cider (or £1 off OK - not mentioned above) and intend to use them for the product (ie Bulmers Cider in ASDA)

THEN HAND THEM OVER (buy bottles) IN MULTIPLES OF THREE.

because there is GOOD NEWS on TWO fronts !

The 568ml bottles are currently on sale at £1.58 each.
Coupons scan at £1.68 - so free bottle of cider PLUS 10p extra per bottle.

BETTER STILL - there is a BUY 3 for £4 offer (not advertised as far as I could see) that also kicks in.

3 x £1.58 = £4.74 so yet another 74p given back

So 3 bottles less 3 coupons brings in a £1.04 refund off the rest of your shopping - make sure you buy something else or you'll lose it !

Anyone else get the 'we're tightening up on coupons, only 2 for items not bought' line today? Or did I just misjudge when I chose my til op?

Tescos of course.

You were lucky ALL mine were refused today with the comment that I hadn't bought the goods. This was from a SA who has always scanned my MOC. Luckily I had divided my shopping into 2..... essentials and, in 'Mums' basket ,non essentials. I left 'Mums' shopping behind at the till !

plzhelpmesave!

i could have cried today! went all the way to tescos (about a 20 min trip) with Dh and all 3 kids for the first time ever as was gonna get him to do a couple of transactions, to use up all of the many vouchers i bought... but the SA read the back of every single voucher and wouldn't use them!! bought sun and mail in multiples and have loads of copies of the vouchers, but embarassed to use them now! He called the manager over and she said if customer hasn't bought the item, then no voucher.....! Hubby dying of shame, kids screaming by this point, so left half of it there and left, passing the manager who then pointed me out to a colleague, saying i tried to use the £4 voucher...

O horrible day...BUT i will not give up and am trying to leave DH at home with brats so i can go and try again at another tesco....

Pity for you unlucky ones my sa took the book coupon for the first time ever so it must be pot luck! Don't give up.
