    Well, lots of emails now sent. I really hope it was useful to the majority of people I sent it to.

    I do feel a bit weird about it as I have only been doing this myself for 2 months and still learning :) so don't want people to think its written by a genius or anything! :rotfl:

    Its just my own thoughts on what works well for me (and hopefully for you too :o )

    Another success today to report, 4 lots of Hb (health and Beauty) and 2 lots of HC (Healthcare) bought along with lots of other shopping for very little money. Didn't think I would be successful today as my usual till boy wasn't on but I risked it with a newbie and was pleasantly surprised :T

    I also found a new Tesco near to me that had lots of scan happy till people on so will be visiting that again soon. Still no Hb to be found in my area though :(
    Stopped smoking Jan 2007 after 23 years!
    Cigarettes NOT smoked = 240,945
    Smoke free days = 11 Years :T
    Cash saved so far = £125,45,11
  • Thanks to all the posters on here for my super bargain shop

    finally found an extra with some quit packs and some leaflets

    but they didn't have any of the mouthwash, which is what i want

    so went to a different one

    2 x oral b mouthwash
    2 x palmolive handwash
    2 x tesco extra toothpaste
    2 x lynx shower gel
    2 x wash and go

    and

    got some yorkshire tea on the 2 for £5 offer, and some reduced by 50% cat food in the bargain section

    Got to the young male SA checkout and waiting in queue when they opened an extra till, couldn't make it look too suspicious so was hoping the new SA would be generous with the coupons

    gave him

    2 x £2.50 h&b
    4 x £1.25 quit
    5 x £1 h&b

    as mentioned plus one of the quit 40p toothpaste one

    end up with my H and B free and

    320 yorkshire tea bags and 12 Perfect Fit Active cat food sachets for a total £2.85

    I'm sure i could have got a better load of "free" shopping but needed the teabags and cat food and wanted to make sure the total didn't look too low

    thats great:T well done , the more you do it the easier it becomes, it can become quite addictive!!
    dont wait for your boat to come in, get in a dingy and row out to it!!!
  • thats great:T well done , the more you do it the easier it becomes, it can become quite addictive!!
    I am wanting to go back to get the six packs of multi-vitamins for 55p:D

    Not sure whether to go back and get another haul or wait til the offers change.

    Do Tesco's always include a BOGOF on toothpaste, mouthwash and shampoo in their batch of offers?

    Recieved mine :T Thank you very much. I think it's the confidence to go for it that I need to build on as well as picking the right cashier; luckily, there seem to be plenty of long haired gawpy looking young lads at my local store :rotfl: might have to have a wander down later for some more, have already got a nice little stockpile in the spare room after yesterday's 2 runs though
  • Could somebody check my maths on this one?

    Timotei shampoo X 4 £3.54
    Palmolive handwash X 4 £6.16
    Sure Men's shower gel X 2 £3.92
    Sunsilk Shampoo X 2 £3.54 Total = £20.22

    Using 2 X £2.50 H&B
    5 X £1 H&B
    4 X £1.25 QK

    After BOGOF, cost is £10.11, so minus £15 in coupons = £4.89 credit towards other shopping.

    Not sure if this works out right or if I'm missing something - it's a long time since I used my maths "skills" :rotfl:

    Online Timotei shampoo is £1.65 so 4 would be £6.60.
    I am no expert at Tescos but your calculations look fine except for the Timotei.

    Good luck,let us know how you get on.
    I am only brave enough to do £10 H&B at a time:o

    People have responded to your kindness and generosity (including me!). In this selfish world we all live in nowadays, its nice to stumble across someone who still likes to share. Thanks! :beer:

    I agree loveandlight with your sentiments, people on the voucher boards have really been very thoughtful and kind to me when I have been unable to get any vouchers - I like the friendliness on here.

    We had heavy rain yesterday and I saw an elderly lady (who reminded me of my dear nan who died 15 months ago and who I miss so much) so I stopped my car and asked her would she like a lift as she was so wet. She declined but in this day and age isn't it sad when people are so cautious of each other.

    I just had an email from Sainsburys offering me triple points on toiletries - no thanks - rather get them from tescos !

    Hi,

    Does anyone know if you can only use one peach H&B coupon for 50 points per shop? All the coupon says is 50 points when you spend £2 or over. Could I use this multiple times like the £1 off when you spend £4 if you bought £15 worth? Or are Tescos covering themselves by saying the £2 or over bit?
    Hope this makes sense...

    I too am more than happy to sell any items that any people here want to send me gratis!

    Oh right - here we go again

    THAT IS NOT ME :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

    this is me on ebay:

    why don't you get your facts right before you post please ! I am sick of people accusing me of something that is NOT true. If you think I would come on here and then ask for vouchers then sell them then you do not know anything about me. Please quit with the false accusations.
