    I used to print them on an Epson inkjet at the highest quality level. Most would not scan.
    Now I use an old colour laser printer - do them 3 or 4 up and print some text on the back of each sheet.
    Although I know its not necessary that makes them look less like something you printed yourself and more as though they were out of a magazine.
    This leads to less questioning at the checkout, some also now scan which is a bonus.

    I keep trying to download and print the dettol and some other coupons from the same site but all I get is a blank white screen. Anyone know why - I tried different browser sttings but all to no avail.

    Maybe someone could put these other coupons up for download - it would be a kind thing to do.

    Well I went to Tesco's in Potters Bar today. The wife had no problem after a few doh ! faces. Once they say the letter from Tesco HQ that was fine (make sure your're armed with it) Saved £10.60 .... bought most of the fruit & veg organic instead of pestiside specials !! - lovely stuff. The boss woman in Tesco's did say that normally they can only offer a maximium of 25% off your total shopping bill with vouchers. I said fine, now read your HQ letter, after which he was OK with the vouchers - Key to this : perservere & save money - SOD the grumpy faces queuing behind - just smile :D it winds em up even more !!! ..... Cheers savers D&J xx

    After complaining to Customer Services in Dundee, I got an apology for "inconvenience" but no comment upon acceptability of these vouchers. However, as they sent me a Tesco voucher for £5-00 (more than the rejected e-vouchers) all is profit. Then went to other local Tesco store, who accepted e-vouchers without problem. Seems to be no consistency throughout Tesco - use what you can get.

    I posted earlier to say I had problems printing off the vouchers, and you asked for more information.

    whenever I click on the link a few postings earlier, I get the homepage of 'Antax - total Internet Solutions' appearing. No Tesco vouchers ! Please help !

    Incidently, an assistant in Leighton Buzzard Tesco told me that they accepted vouchers up to 10% of the total. The following week, a lad accepted nearly 50% of my shopping in vouchers and then I got a print-out-from-till coupn giving me a further £2 discount if I spend £20. not difficult with kids.

    sorry for poor typing, kids screaming in background. Must go !

    I must say that Tesco's in Potters Bar, Herts we're fine about taking the vouchers in the end. The vouchers that didn't scan were put through as 'No scan' - Now that they're aware there shouldn't be any future probs. For the sake of a few mins wait it's is worth getting huge chunks off your bill. ;)

    WHICH OTHER STORES TAKE THESE VOUCHERS ? ... I SAW ASDA'S SORT OF DO?

    Despite going into our local Tesco (where we spend a small fortune) with an email saying they accept internet vouchers a manager there consistently refuses to accept them - frustrating! Furthermore, she suggested that I should go 'elsewhere' - friendly!

    I fully agree with you PAPADAK. Maybe Tesco HQ will sit up and listen when complaints are made public.

    I stopped shopping at Tesco's last month - the manager was rude and just walked away, and the supervisor didn't even know his surname >:(! The branch is in Dean Street, just off Oxford Street, in London.

    I now shop at Asda at Clapham Junction, and for some of the special offers, at Lidl. Lidl doesn't take any coupons (checked with their head office).

    Asda accepts manufacturers' coupons, also from the internet :). And most of their things are cheaper than Tesco's. I've saved a lot already and their staff are nicer than Tesco's :).

    :-[ The assistant on till at my local Tesco's wouldn't accept them because they didn't scan through. Is it ok to ask them to key in the barcode number?
