    I just quietly place the ones I do not want (eg £15 off first £60 online) in the till packing area...

    The latest ones are 120 points for the next £30 spend. That is 60p... They come as a till spit after you already spent £30. Insane.

    My biggest mistake was buying Gillette blades on behalf of a male relative a year ago. S/bury clearly think I ought to buy these more often and keep giving me till spits for 500pts off the next lot. Which I won't be buying as he lives far away now!

    Ditto an expensive handcream for myself. Still not used it up but the incentives come weekly!

    Bought new wellies online since starting this thread and yep, after I bought them was seeing banner ads offering me 15% off.. and then when they turned up I got a voucher for 15% off.. but how many times in my entire life am I going to buy wellies.. so the whole voucher after the event thing is catching on :(

    I don't spend a great deal at Sainsburys but find a lower spend often triggers a MOC. Today I spent £3 on some Activia (and parking!) but no MOC :(.

    No BrandMatch statement either, so my conclusion is was that the machine was out of paper.
