I did 2 shops on the weekend .
On saturday ,I did a smallish shop [£20ish] including H&B ,and £8 healthcare ,served by a SA ,a boy ,who was very reluctant to take any of my coupons ,would only take £1 off my toiletries and £2 of healthcare ,would not take any moc ,s ,he was really nervous to even take those 2 coupons,his hand was shaking as he gave me my change . I felt sorry for him ,cos I did argue ,that I had bought £10 of toiletries ,so some coupons should have come off,but he was having none off it.:mad: :mad: [I did have £2.50p coupon took off at customer services ,;) ]
My second shop,Sunday,Same Tesco ,diffrent SA
,still a boy, I bought 3 pks solar lights for the garden,nothing else,asked did he take moc's ,he said yes ,took every thing in my purse ,ended up paying £7.for just under £30 quids worth .:D

What you lose one day you gain the next ,so all you out there ,keep trying.
