    I actually bought them from Sainsburys :p . I haven't been to 'our' Tesco today.........yet

    I am afraid I cleared the shelf Zippy' ... but it didn't take much clearing ... there are OTHERS! ..... There were only 3 left ... I felt a little bad ... sort of like not offering a pregnant lady a seat on the bus ... I should have left one for a 'real' mum ...

    However as I was walking away I heard Customer Skirmishes pipe up over the tannoy for someone from 'News' to come in as there time was up ... I imagine someone was asking but it made me quicken my step a little ... :rotfl: ...

    There were also some of those Cbeebies Magazine coupons on the rack too ... A5 white envelopes ....

    Hi this is my 1st post , so please be gentle with me *looks hopeful*, anyway in the march issue of Pregnancy and Birth magazine there's a free pocket sized booklet entitled "We love to shop" which contains 8x £1 coupons for Huggies newborn nappies and 4x £1.25 coupons for huggies wipes . they all expire on 01/08/08 and the barcodes begin with the magic 9 9, so not a bad return .

    Zoexx


    Thanks Zoe for this post. I nabbed all 8 copies in my local WHSmith today. I did pick up one, then just started getting all nervous, so grabbed all 8 thinking I got to do it!!!!

    Went to the till and the cashier said "All eight"..........I said "I know, all 8! The things I have to do when I am a volounteer for the (BABY CHARITY NAME). I also said can I have a receipt to make me look like I needed all 8 mags lol!!!

    Off to Tesco in a bit.....one to use the 8 I got on some more, plus buy Best plus get some freezer food.

    I am lllllllloooooooooovvvvvvvvviiiiiinnnnnnnnnnggggggggggg YOU!!!!

    Husband thinks I am slightly strange all this coupon thing, but hey, last night he did agree to try for number 2 - so all these mags are research lol.

    Also, for those that don't need these mags - Donate to doctors, NCT etc etc.

    That's what I always say, if anyone asks, that someone I know is in the mag/paper. ;)

    I'm not at all bothered about buying multiple copies of this. :cool: It helps that I have a baby with me, as they have articles about newborns in the mag, although my 5-month-old chunky monkey doesn't really qualify as a newborn any more :rotfl:

    Thank you so much for this, OP - you're every couponer's favourite person at the moment! :T :A :j

    Just spoke to hubby - he was laughing so much at this coupon offer............ then you could hear the penny drop..............so I can get free stuff.....yes hunny.........free............by using coupons...........including DVD's....

    Guess what he said next? LOL

    Hubby " Remind me the name of that mag, I am going to the shops after work"

    Then Sis in Law just rang, she gets the mags delivered to her before shop floor, guess what she is doing as we speak LOL


    Zoe - What a top Post!!!

    I'd tell her, then tell her which mag it is, then watch her grab her purse, her coat etc and run to the nearest shop for this mag.

    petrol stations, didn't think of that, thanks will text hubby now too for petrol stations LOL!!!
