    Afternoon all, lovely and sunny outside - I hope you are having a super day.

    Had my free Sprite coupon rejected yesterday in my local Sainsbees, and they are usually pretty good at accepting coupons. The young assistant told me that they had recieved a HUGE influx of photocopied coupons and all staff have to check coupons with greater scrutiny now.

    I laughed a little and told her atleast they accept their own coupons, Tosco refused ones I had printed from their online magazine!

    Ive not tried it again yet, I may try it with a diff member of staff later.

    have a super day all xx
    Wishing you all good luck!

    Actually looking at this rec there are quite a few items suitable for a
    sainsbobs v Tosco shop

    but as it was change over day yesterday I don't know if the prices will all be the same - pity about this

    Yeah me too. Just that the vote count doesn't seem to go up every time I do it.
