There is more to this story than meets the eye...
The full receipt (including the bottom bit not showing in the DM photo) has a Clubcard Points total for the quarter of 14500.
....so he doesn't just do coupons!
I presume they did 'the shopping' on another trip, as there wasn't any food there apart from breakfast (I don't count Quorn as food Bleurgh!!).

I know Jordon and he uses internet coupons, club card vouchers, supplier coupons, magazine coupons etc. Yes the shop pictured was chosen because of the sub total and then the price paid. The products there such as cleaning and tissues would last a while and so only taking £1.60ish out of a shopping budget would leave money for fresh food as well as any possible overage.
For a 16 year old man who's just sat his gcses, I think he's doing a fab job. A very savvy youngsterCoupons = the only money we can legally print for ourselves:D
:j A coupon for a free item that is price glitched in Mr T's to be cheaper than Sada for an apg = HEAVEN :j
:money: total = £47.48 cc = 413 selling stuff = £23.00 Floor pennies = £5.790 -

So how did he get round the fact that you can only use the coupon for the product? Do Tesco let you use unlimited coupons against a shop?
Our Tesco doesn't let you use unlimited coupons, in fact most of the cashiers give you dirty looks if you get coupons out and make you unpack to show the item.14 Projects in 2014 - in memory of Soulie - 2/140
