    getting low on £1 toiletry coupons..............

    Leadhead, I'm sure that when you say low on £1 toiletry coupons it must mean that you only have about 50 or so left:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    TOP MONEYSAVING TIP

    Make your own Pot Noodles using a flower pot, sawdust and some old shoe laces. Pour in boiling water, stir then allow to stand for two minutes before taking one mouthful, and throwing away. Just like the real thing!

    so far all the SAs in my local Tesco extra have taken all the vouchers I produce with no problem whatsoever - when using the H&B vouchers, I always buy some other shopping, and never go over one £10 load of bogof stuff, think it pays not to be too greedy! My toiletry cupboard is getting very well stocked (for the year!), and am looking forward to seeing what the new bogofs are next week

    I dont know if this is the answer to the vouchers not being accepted but if the SA tries to scan 2 the same voucher one after the other the till will reject the second one as it thinks it is a mistake....I always mix my vouchers so no 2 the same are together with the H&B ones and seem to have no problems....and my local store accepts the Daily Mail one no problem.....

    I always mix them up,but when the SA goes through them :rolleyes: and sorts them :rolleyes: what can you do ? so far ive managed to convince them to try ,i smile sweetly and say ,"im sure ive spent enough ,if not the till will beep" :D :rotfl:

    yeah, i found it a lot less stressful and easier to do small shops, 10hb + 8hc, but more satisfying and exciting to do a large shop.

    Doing 3x2 of these a night is very satisfying.....and only takes 30minutes

    Just out of interest do you buy other stuff with your HB & HC to disguise these shops and if so, how much? As I'm still a scaredy cat when doing these HB shops I usually end up buying a minimum of £7 other stuff to disguise the shops. (I've still a long way to go, haven't I?)

    Also, what do you do with all the stuff you buy? I know you're not going to answer that one!!! LOL. I'm more than well stocked up for personal use with the little shops I've done since Feb.

    PS After the disappointments of the last couple of days I had a fab SA who scanned all the mocs I gave her. I just hope she doesn't get into trouble as yesterday I was told by CS that the store only accepts 1 moc per shop for items not purchased.

    For the last three weeks ive done around 40 shops a week, all HB and HC with no other stuff....2 transactions a time, 3 transactions in usually the same store.....and have had no bother. The majority of stuff this week is Dove, the bogof creams with the bogof shampoos, coming to just over £10 per transaction, or similar bogof combinations upto £12 or £14 using £1 and and 40p coupons, as well....For healthcare bogofs , theres Slimfast, Sanatogen, Durex (various), and Glucosamine, all made upto £8 and coppers to give a slight spend.

    All my stuff is in the loft, apart from some i give to relatives.........and its packed...in the last three weeks alone, i reckon 800 items have been added...........

    Yes possibly, but ive also got maybe 60 £2.50....so it means i have to get rid of 35 £2.50's to catch up to be able to get full usage, or get more coupons.....which i'll look for tomorrow.......thats the problem with couponing on a night when all the young ones are on....no mobile HandB stands out in the aisles......although i dont think it will be long before my stores start putting a lock on the cupboard on the back of them........lol
