    Seems they have changed the t&c's only one coupon per shop. In previous months I have managed to use 2 coupons if I spent over £90, till operator told me today cant do that. Asked when this had changed only to be told it's always been that way...........ho hum. Aldi don't treat your customers as if they are stupid, look what happened to Tesco etc.

    Think it's always been one per shop at our Aldi - maybe you've just been lucky in the past? When we used 2 in one go we did half a shop and used one coupon and then went round again and used the other one. I shop every week though so I always buy 2 papers and use 1 coupon on the first Thursday and 1 on the second.

    My Aldi shop today came to £45.01.
    It's the most wonderful timeof the year :

    Not a great deal to be honest, not even a good one.

    Well done if it was BEFORE the fiver was taken off:D

    Mine came to £48 before the £5 was taken off...I add the stuff up in my head but a couple if times I have overestimated and had to rush to add another item to make up the price;)

    When Tesco had the £5 off £40 vouchers I asked the girl on the till to split the shop so I could use the two vouchers.

    I get the impression the Aldi staff don't like vouchers so make it as hard as possible to exchange them!

    If you don't like Aldi it's not a great deal.

    If you don't spend £45 on your weekly shop it's not a good deal.

    If you like Aldi and regularly spend £45 it's a very good deal!

    I had this problem last month. In the end, the manager of the shop let the till girl split my shop so I could use two £5 vouchers, but gave the impression they were doing me a one-off favour (I have used two vouchers every month for over a year, I do a huge stock up shop during voucher week!). I rang aldi customer service when I got home & they confirmed that it **is** allowed to use more than one voucher. But - you have to get them to stop at £45, use one voucher and pay, then do the same again...
