There is a coupon in today's Metro for a free pack of Uncle Ben's wholegrain rice, it is on page 43.

It's on page 49 of the e-edition (it's page 47 on the paper but you have to search for pages 48-49 because of the advertising wrapper): http://e-edition.metro.co.uk/2013/11/04/

Enjoy :)

  • George1090 - I posted this glitch on the Grabbit board earlier and it definitely worked at Tesco Metro, where the offer is currently 3 for £4. So, 1 x Uncle Ben's Wholegrain = £1.69, buy 3 @ £1.69, goes through till at £5.07, then the 3 for £4 discount bringing it down to £4. Hand over the 3 coupons and they each scan at the full £1.69. I bought £2 of other shopping with my 3 packs of Uncle Ben's and the £1.07 I had gained from the Uncle Ben's Metro coupons (£5.07 - £4) came off my shopping and I paid 93p. I wondered what would have happened if I had just bought the 3 packs of Uncle Ben's and whether they would have given me £1.07! I doubt it!
  • tried today and with assistants help was successful on self service :rotfl:

    No, they wouldn't have given you change for the coupons.

    Sorry, yes - it's page 47 on the paper but you have to search for pages 48-49 because of the advertising wrapper. Will change my original post.
  • I went into 5 Tesco stores today and all these rices were missing, not finished as in boxes empty. I went in for work by the way, I think they have removed them because of the glitch.
