    No morries voucher for me yet, but I've just had delivery of my tasting club choccys :j
    I'm leaving the cardboard inner sealed so I can open them Christmas day (I know which set of choccys I ordered but will suprise myself with the flavours in there that way :D )
    Was there meant to be a free gift too? I'm wondering if that's in the cardboard box with my choccys.

    Its a small box tucked into the end of the cardboard pack - when you take the big box out, give the sleeve a really good shake or, failing that, open the other end. Its easy to miss.

    Bikertov, quick question. are you using the in date vouchers? Some have expired, although are printed on the same page.

    Not a silly question, but yes, I am using the correct dated ones. I think the SS till may have said something about insuffcient spend, rather than out of date ?

    The left hand MOCs expired on the 2nd, and the right hand started on the 3rd (yesterday) when I did my most recent Cheesy Shop.

    Mind you, running out of space now. Got a *few* blocks - chopped some up into 4, and grated a load more, then put them in the freezer.

    IIRC, it was this time last year we had the Catherdral City glitch at Asda ? Took a while to use all that lot up, and it hurt to have to pay 'full price' again. So nice to have a stash of free cheese again.

    well it worked again for me this morning :)

    i got 6 packs of 4 activia intensely creamy (different varieties) plus 2 different (175g) elizabeth shaw chocs plus tin rice pud and a carrot.
    so 10 items and a £10 pp :)


    i used the £3 dairy and the £2 dairy above it in the mag :)


    ps the coupons did not require authorisation :)



    Hi Tom
    Im going to do this again tonight, hopefully will be able to get 2 different types of ES chocs.
    Was your PP for exactly £10 as I was going to throw in a box of velvet tissues and use the 60p coupon as these are comparing againt Mr A at the moment.

    Have you had a refund from Reebok yet?

    That's another one that irks me :rotfl:

    ;):D

    I contacted them and this is what they said:
    Dear !!!!!,
    Reebok rejected all payments.
    Your bank only reserved the money for the transaction. Since this transaction never took place it should expire. I agree that this should have happened by now. In order to get more information you need to asked either paypal or your bank.

    I've just been given a few t booklets. I've been skimming over all the posts with info in on these coupons(cos I couldn't find any) so now need to try and catch up.

    I've seen there is a shop using activia and es chocs where I can use the dairy ones. I know about the 100 pts for the gift card thingy. Can someone run by me the pastry thingy-what do I use for this?Is there anything else??

    Thanks for any info
