  • I had the same problem when I got a voucher for 25 points when spending £1 on vegetables.I bought tomatoes and was told they didnt qualify.
    same thing here when i tried to get bagels as a bread product. Argued the toss I did and eventually won 'as a gesture of goodwill' :cool:

    Tomatoes ARE in the vegetable section of most grocers, as are potatoes and other root crops along with peppers, grapes along with other 'non veg' items. Most shoppers 'regard, these as veg....in most large supermarkets the section is called PRODUCE !!!!.

    I went to the self service till and used the bonus point coupon with milk and it worked.

    I had a disagreement with an assistant over whether cycling equipment was fitness equipment. They gave up and gave me the bonus points, but they still didn't seem to agree with me.

    The categories for bonus points are often quite vague, and as I'm usually buying things specifically to get the points, it's difficult to know what I can and can't buy.

    Yes I had the same problem when i brought a whole variety of salad veg, noen of it qualified as veg.

    My fruit coupon wouldn't scan on apples ! At least most the CS staff at my store have a sense of humour and laugh at Tesco's errors with the points

    I was once told that bacon wasn't meat. Not only that but it was considered to be dairy!! Seems you can't win but I always go to CS to get points added.

    I have handed over a coupon for extra points on fruit when buying tomatoes and been told that it didn't qualify.

    It's a berry.
    The "bean" is the pip or stone.

    Before they are harvested they are called coffee berries or coffee cherries.
