    Can you imagine if A started accepting CC vouchers in response!?!

    They did a few years ago. 2007 to be precise, as it was the year I moved into my new house. Had to travel a little way, but was well worth it, using all my used cc vouchers.

    Sainsburys have also done it, and morrisons did it a couple of years ago.

    Always worth holding onto your used cc vouchers, as you never know when a competitor might start taking them! :D

    Nowt wrong with it

    T can't reclaim the cost either way and have no right to ask valassis if redeemed in A

    I certainly wouldn't print multiples to use in T though

    Each to their own devices though

    There's everything wrong with it:o

    We all have our lines and I'll not be crossing that one:o

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker I've been Money Tipped!
    I'm the same, but I have no idea what is on the card as I rarely shop in Sainsbugs… I never used to shop in A*da but now I rarely go anywhere else, I think their apg has made us all change our shopping habits (and the shops we shop at) :D:D:D:D

    I only use them rarely, sometimes petrol if I'm in need and passing. I'm signed with British gas for Nectar since we got the new boiler, so every month I get points as I pay gas by dd.

    MrT was my shop of choice but of course r&r and dtd then 1p hunts kept me faithful, but 1p items never seem to frequent my local store.

    Remember the 1p photo key rings? Some put in an appearance in my local last week, one clipstrip. They have all gone now :D :rotfl: :rotfl:
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    Huh?
    Tosco will take up to £10 in APGs, but you fancy buying the Sun for a £5 voucher?

    Have a sit down and think about it.

    Yeap… and no matter what I think I still don't understand it… maybe I need to read more than the 4 pages I have restricted myself to xx

    <Bit in bold>

    Normally I'd agree with you, but in this case Tesco cannot claim any money back from anyone. An apg is only "legal tender" in Asda, and the rules pertaining to copying, reuse etc are only applicable for use in Asda.
    As far as Tesco is concerned you might as well be paying with Monopoly money because the vouchers are worthless to them (and therefore it's not relevant whether you've used them before). It's a marketing ploy to subvert Asda shoppers over to Tesco and there will be a budget for the losses occurring during this period.
    Personally I can only see this backfiring as soon as the asda shoppers see the prices in T!:rotfl:

    Speaking of which, I was already coming in to post this. Maybe some Tvs A?
    An absolute horrid price comparison on the APG on that Chocolate Cake - very strangely, showing it as an mbuy price for Mr A. It would be fantasic if that worked the other way (maybe paid for with APGs to £10 value in a "selected" (by Mr T:() Mr T) with 9 different fillers, but I very very much doubt it sadly.

    As usual, comparable mbuys (from A-T but not necessarily the other way round) are shown in bold.

    I have been keeping my Cc vouchers ever since just in case of a repeat

    Thankyou, I did send them an email but I have to wait for 21 days:(. Don't know if they will resend...I was looking forward to receiving those... Sad I know:rotfl:
