    I had a bad day today in a store that has a strict policy of only one spend coupon in total... I have a couple of lads that are obviously unaware of this but unfortunately they weren't there today....

    Had to do the famous 4 plax using a £2.50 & getting my box of bran flakes with coupons on for 3p...

    I too am always left with a pile of £2.50's so going for more plax over the next few days to hold back on my other coupons using the following.. what I must say boring combo...

    4 x plax @ £2.86 = £11.44
    6 x facial wipes @ £1.49 = £8.94 (BOGOF Takes £1.90)

    Total Pre BOGOF's = £20.38
    Total After BOGOF's = £8.96

    Use.. 4 x £1.00 plax, 2 x £2.50's = 4p off shopping....

    I'll probably get a value toothpaste aswell with a 40p colgate so I'll be a whopping 23p in credit... Tin of beans or something... As I say... nothing to get exitied about but better than wasted coupons...

    Tesco do use the clubcard to track your spending.

    If you are doing lots of H&B shops don`t use your clubcard.

    we lost all our points recently.

    Sorry I can`t go into more details but it is a public forum.

    I have used my card loads of times over the last few months when doing Hb shops, maybe that was a mistake...

    The toiletry discounts are worth more than I would normally get from points alone. I'm happy taking my chances (with a load of 50 extra point coupons to boot!!)

    Depends upon the definition of *lots*.....

    2 a week?
    2 a day?
    More?


    If you're doing several H & B shops a day, paying virtually nil & whacking in 200-300 points a time, then it's very naive to think Mr T will ignore it :)
