TESCO H&B COUPONS - Thread 3 *See First Post for UPDATES*

  • Coupon policy never ceases to amaze.

    Told this week in the SAME store, 3 coupons on things you haven't bought, then the next day only one:confused:

    Then today in another store - only use a total of 5 coupons (eeek - which H&B to go for!!!)
    and again in the same store, as many as you like if they are Tesco ones!!:rolleyes:

    Would love to have a straight forward policy all stores will stick to!

    Ok - on the basis of that, if I were to stock up on JF currently on 342,
    which 5 coupons would be the best?

    Many thanks in advance! ;)

    If you can only use 5 coupons total, either round up to over £15 and use:
    1 x £2.50 So Beautiful, 1 x £2.50 H&B and 3 x £1.25 Quit, or 1 less Quit and a higher vvalue moc [ie DM £4 coupon out tomorrow :D ]

    Or you could take total over £20 and use 2 x £2.50 H&B with 1 x £2.50 So Beautiful and 2 x £1.25 Quit.

    £1 H&B will NOT work on JF products.

    Well it had to happen eventually after such a good run, I had to pay almost normal prices tonight after my favourite scanner ever, said he could only take 10% off my bill using coupons as he had had his knuckles rapped for allowing people to use too many coupons :o

    Thing was, he waited until he had scanned everything before telling me!

    And tonight of all nights was the first time we had bought clothing as we wanted to use the blue clothing vouchers and hubby was after some new jeans and shirts. I did manage to get a new top and skirt for me and a brilliant new bag as well that has a miniature bag inside it (fab for coupons!) and total to pay before coupons was £73 ish, after coupons it came down to £43 as I also bought 3 John Frieda at the same time (yes again!)

    He did allow me another £4 off the bill though even though he had already accepted the clothing vouchers and the John frieda vouchers. hubby was with me and wasn't too happy to be asked to pay £39 when he was hoping to pay less than £10!

    I also had a second shop lined up on the belt as was wanting to take advantage of the credit to be gained when buying the Dove shower gel and using the 70p couons, not to be though!

    he seemed scared to death of putting a foot wrong and kept checking the bill to see if I had bought the right things for the vouchers I had passed him, so he wouldn't use the £2.50 off as said I hadn't spent £10, wouldn't use the 40p toothpaste ones as I hadn't bought Colgate (I bought two 12p sale ones) and he wouldn't use the 70p one as I had obviously bought Dove showergel and not Palmolive!

    Think he actually only scanned 1 £1.25 one and 1 £1.00 one :(
    I was tempted to get him to void them off but hubby had already walked off with the trolley and packed bags so couldn't!

    I am tempted to take them back to CS tomorrow but then again, is it really worth it for £4.56?
    plus they will then see the coupons he did use on the receipt so maybe not a good idea after all...

    I shan't let it get me down though and shall be back out tomorrow shopping for England once again :D
    Stopped smoking Jan 2007 after 23 years!
    Cigarettes NOT smoked = 240,945
    Smoke free days = 11 Years :T
    Cash saved so far = £125,45,11
  • Luckily I only need to do a H&B shop once a month (don't really need to do it that often as i live by myself and two bottles of shampoo and mouthwash last longer than a mouth) so I'm hoping to keep under the radar

    The only things i would need from my next H&B shop would be soap/ shower gel and cotton buds which isn't going come to £10 :(

    I've been stocking up on Slim Fast, I've still got shampoo and conditioner in my cupboard from Christmas (when the temps were maning the tills!!!) I need some more vitamins and these dont seem to be on special at the moment.I'm going to treat the OH to some Durex bits and bobs, he looked at me strangely when I said this to him yesterday, then I explained they would essentially be free.

    The 70p coupon works on other things. The Dove shower gel which is BOGOF works. I think also someone said imperial leather but I might be wrong.

    I did the christmas baskets last year and everyone was over the moon but I think if I did them this year they would be even better with all the freebies i've been getting!!!
    I'm thinking of doing my DDs and nieces a luxury basket full of JF etc!
