    okay - This is definately my last post on the subject :). Why do you accept the wording of a voucher that says something like "£5 off when you spend £40" without question ? By your definition above are not " spending" £40 because you are only handing over £35

    Okay you win :T. Goodnight! :D
    :D I haven't bogged off yet, and I ain't no babe :D

    I just love how calm you have remained trying to explain this. Hats off to you.

    Me and my husband are also in the thick brigade, because we had to ask the woman at Morries!! I think its the intelligent people that query the wording....... haha. i always read too much into the terms and conditions anyway, in case i'm made to look a fool at the till...

    Right then. Just done my shop. Asked the guy putting stock out in f&v dept, who read the coupon and said he wasn't sure but he thought it meant £10 in your basket in total.

    So, collected £5.47 f&v and £6.05 other items, presented voucher at checkout, to be told "sorry it's only valid on fruit and veg". I indicated my carrier bag full of f&v and said "what d'you think this is?". He said he'd have to call the supervisor! Then he said he thought it had to be £10 of f&v!

    Waited a while, then he asked the next door checkout assistant, who looked at the coupon rather puzzled then said she *thinks* it's okay. However it wouldn't scan, so he reluctantly keyed the barcode in.

    I'd have thought they'd have been briefed on this offer. Apparently not. Good luck everyone!

    I had a great experience in store today and at a s/scan till. The "Old Dear" who processed the coupon entered it manually and knew the code off by heart. lol
    She said, "Do you think I've entered quite a few of these?". Bless her and thanks for a great shopping experience. :T

    See what next week brings, if anything. A meat offer coupon would be very much appreciated. ;)

    Pity you didn't explain it to the staff in Hereford branch of Morrisons - somebody should have!

    I feel somewhat vindicated after my rather embarrassing experience today. Not such a thicko after all ;) .
