    Yes I have. Thats what we are on about. I like it. Starbucks brought out their own brand one recently and the price is :eek::eek: and it's identical to the podpronto/k-fee one. If you can get it that cheap it's worth it with all the cheap pods around. It's around £100 full price

    I bought a carrier bag full of the pods a few weeks ago at 10p and liked the coffee (finest espresso and colombian). Got a few again a couple of days ago but never thought about buying a machine. There were loads of the pods but one of the regular whoopsiers (David.'s friend:rotfl::rotfl:) got a whole trolley full:eek: Think he was intending to car boot them:cool::cool:

    I want a cheapy too as the pods are always 10p in my local. At the mo they have about 60 various teas bbe 06/13.

    They're perfectly fine to use OOD as well. No difference to the taste at all

    I always check the amount on the verified by box that pops up. It can't take any more than that as that's what you're authorising. M&S have always honoured the glitchy prices when Ive ordered before

    Good advice, price you click to purchase should also be on the confirmation email they send you.

    :eek: I am so glad I am NOT a member of the spin off FB groups. I understand the need to get across to people that staying under the radar will benefit many. However, there is a way of doing it without insults :(

    Seriously, get a grip. It is highly evident that those critising the use of the WW vouchers on the 10 Ways FB page are all close friends. Ask yourself how much credibility your argument will carry when this stands out so much. TBH it just looks like sour grapes (no I am not suggesting for one moment that it is, just that is how it may look to those using the 10 Ways FB page).

    Rant over :o

    Not sour grapes at all. I want to be able to use coupons without being trouted because of selfish people taking the pee and using photocopied coupons. :mad:

    I think it's the fact that the voucher that they are promoting has been one someone has genuinely received in the post (for a complaint or whatever) and they have scanned it, uploaded and are putting it out there for people to use willy nilly. I can't imagine that supermarkets that accept it are going to get reimbursed for it which in turn leads them to look at their acceptance of internet coupons and coupons in general. I don't think that there is any sour grapes at all. We are all after the same thing here, and although the lines are sometime blurred, what they have done is just wrong, imho anyways...

    Wackynut, just to make it clear, I think the posts you have made are very diplamatic. However, some of the other posts are plain insulting.

    Also to highlight the point I was making:

    TBH it just looks like sour grapes (no I am not suggesting for one moment that it is, just that is how it may look to those using the 10 Ways FB page)

    PM me if you want to discuss further. I only posted my comment on here as I am not a member of the FB group but know members of the FB group read this forum.

    I'm obviously looking in the wrong place as I can't see any of the comments.:)

    So the voucher is not available on any of the FB groups then?

    From the FB page, click on "see All" opposite "Recent Posts by Others". Scroll down to find it.

    I agree with the sentiment. However, I think the way it has been done may have reduced the message they are trying to get across.

  • Why don't you all discuss this in PM? Why bring it here? If you've got a problem with people elsewhere, I don't see the need to bring it here. Now. Who is for a cuppa?
