Another bad shop tonight. Happy scanners not in again so chose young girl and she started to organise all my coupons into little piles :eek: and said she'd have to check what she could use. I told her nicely that the till usually accepts what can be used but she said the till will accept them all even if I hadn't bought the product. I tried to explain that you had to spend the right amount to use the H&B and healthcare ones but she just didn't get it.

She went to check with a supervisor and said she could only do 10%. I did my usual test run on first shop so I told her I had over spent and didn't want the toiletires on the next load. 2nd load came to £14 and as I hadn't bought any toiletries I couldnt use my H&B coupons but she said I could.... again I tried to explain but she just didn't understand. She tried to scan them but of course wouldn't go through so I gave her 2 x £1 magazine coupons which worked fine (however was also over 10%!!!!)

Would be getting worried about this store but sis (Narla) got all hers through no probs 2 lanes down.

Ok rant over.... hopefully I can get over it now!!!!! They say bad things come in 3's... well I've had 3 bad shops in a week......Will try again on W/E.

You need to buck up love I managed a £34 shop for 94p tonight any more bad shops and your not having any more of my coupons.:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

looking for some advice..i have just found the wardrobe clothing vouchers
£10 off a £50 spend, 2 x £6 off £30 spend, £4 off £20 spend can i combine any of these? and do i have to buy clothing?.
Does anyone have any good healthcare combos too?

thanks x

The wardrobe vouchers will scan on anything and can be combined..do a $50 spend and use them all

Here is a good healthcare combo

6 x Something Xtra bars @ 1.49 = 8.94
2 x Evening Primrose and Starflower 30s @ 3.50 = 7.00
2 x Rennie Dual Action @ 4.19 = 8.38

Total = 24.32

12.16 after Bogof

Use 6 x £1 HC and 3 x £2 Quit HC

16p to pay

Probably cleaning his tackle for the next session

Thank you Discodee... thats something I neglected to write in my post... I have great pride in looking after my tackle... my rod and peripherals... & I give it a good wash before & after use... Its not so bad when reservoir or river/pond fishing...as the water isn't salty and the land not so dusty...but after sea fishing, it takes me longer to clean my tackle than it does to actually use it.....one bit of sand or grit in ones tackle, doesn't half create a scream......when the line leaves the reel, often ruining the bearings

Reading back on my post yes I can see how it's been misread and misinterpreted but you probably haven't learnt the art of ffffffffffffffffffffffffffishing.

So,no not preparing for next session, did that last night......Ive been out couponing........and had a disaster.....................................

leadhead

No he hasn't crashed the car
No he hasn't lost his fishing tackle
No he hasn't lost his coupons
No..carol**** hasn't found out his details and shopped him to T

Worse than all of this put together.....he had to pay money tonight................well almost.

Went to my favourite store tonight, where tbh i think they think Tesco Policy is, "if its got Tesco on it...accept it......been doing 30+ shops a week there and get lots of smiles off lots of the SA's and no one seems to care.

Well...................none of my regulars on tonight, so looked for the most susceptible and went for her....Had my minimum shop on the belt(£32 worth of coupons)....She started scanning, and seemed ok...but without saying anything, had pressed button for the supervisor, and before realising what had happened, supervisor was there....as i said, my favourite store, so decided as they've been so good to me for almost a year now, I decided to take it on the chin...

Anyway, supervisor cancelled transaction(nicely) and took me to CS(same CS that I'd had some brilliant RandR's off last year).....They spread all my coupons out on the desk...and looked at my bill....£53 before bogof,,,,£32.12 after.....to cut a long and quite enjoyable story short...they only accepted 3x £2.50's, 2 £1.25 quits and £2x £1 hb....(no logic in what they accepted)
that will be £20.12 please...........bl00dy hell....last time i paid that much was for about £180 worth of clothes....quickly got my little plastic emergency (inch thick with gift cards) bag out, and handed her a gift card
90pence, then another £2.40, then another £4.80, then another £5.30, and finally a £10 one
I'd been meaning to get rid of these smaller ones earlier in the week..........................

I never carry much money with me, in case I'm tempted to use it

Noticed on leaving that one of my regulars was back on her till, so quickly dumped stuff in car, and went back into see her to see if it was store policy, or i was just unlucky....she accepted my £32 of coupons...so it looks as if i was just unlucky......phew

Went on to another two stores doing the same combo twice in each..................happy days

Discodee

Blimey leadhead you have some bottle. I'd have been WAY too terified to go back in!

LOL no, I just have a filthy mind And I knew you'd clean your tackle like anyone with a nice big rod would do!:rotfl:

yes I read that, poor you. But you had some nerve going back in!

Who is Carol who is going to report you to Mr T???????????????????????

And even if anyone was that petty, they accept the coupons so it is their doing. It isnt like you have held the cashier at knifepoint and insisted she/he take them

I got a till spit yesterday for 500 points btw for clothes so could do with a nice money off clothes coupon now. havent had one of those clothes club voucher sheets for ages despite reregistering a few times for my "lodgers"

Just had to share. I received an envelope this morning from a fellow MSE'r. It was stuffed with vouchers , all sorts. There was H&B, including the points, So beautiful (never seen these before) The £6 clothing and electrical, loads of QK, plus John Freida.

My flabber was truly gasted. Huge thanks to deebee and guess where I am going this afternoon.

Hi.. just incase you missed it the 500pt till spit works on any £20 spend..
I too didn't get any wardrobe coupons along with a few others I know despite registering...
