  • I am definitely struggling this time. I haven't found any So Beautiful or 75% coupons. Luckily I did manage to find some H&B's otherwise I might have to give up this game completely.
    Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times and I'll smash your face in. :D

    Can I just ask a quick question as there are some of you around this morning....

    My credit card is also my club card. When registering for stuff that asks for your clubcard number, do I just enter my credit card number, or is that a bit dodgy?

    Thanks

    No, thats ok...giving your credit card number on its own isnt a risk, and it should only be Tesco enquiring about this......

    The disadvantage of having only a Tesco Credit Card is that at times when you dont want to use your clubcard(eg when using excesses of coupons)....it automatically uses it when you go to pay.....so if the transaction goes wrong and CS or a Supervisor is called....they can then access all your personal details through your ClubCard(Tesco Identity Card)....and find out who you are....

    I try not to use it when heavily couponing......
    Couponing....."every little hurts"

    Half of the people can be part right all of the time, Some of the people can be all right part of the time.
    But all the people can't be all right all the time. .........I think Abraham Lincoln said that.

    With respect, i think you need to do some investagations yourself....these threads will always help anyone...but to ask such a basic question, means you cant have looked at all

    the offer is still running, and finishes tuesday,,,,,,

    You must have asked about the cookies at the wrong time, as it was so obvious when it was "on"....as was the Pepsi ....

    Good Luck...

    Posted this on the Tesco promotions thread...but Ive talked a lot about Persil on here, so posted it here as well.....

    Although I give lots of my coupons away....I always make sure I have enough to satisfy the demands of friends late requests on the last day....but its awful after a week of hard couponing, when you wake up on the last day, and find you have a lot more than you thought.

    When i counted last night, I had about 400 out of 600 bread(only bought 2 loaves in a week).....22 Persil and 26 Robinsons.....Plenty i thought as all my locals had cut down to 1 per day....or so i was told.....

    Anyway....got ready this morning, finding odd coupons in various places, and ended up with 34 Persil and 42 Robinsons.....far too many i thought for the last day.....

    OH had changed her attitude, and suggested WE get rid if them...so we told some friends we would get them some......

    Time to go to Tescos....OH conveniently found other more important things to do....so WE became ME.

    Set out to first store....I don't beat about the bush now...I just walk up to duty managers or till supervisrs and ask the limit....ONE Persil I was told, and ONE juice per day.....although she would let me have more juice....So got my ONE Persil and 6 juice......went 10 miles to next store....2 of each she said....so went in twice....next store had no Persil but got 6 juice.....This was useless so decided to give up the ghost and go home....afterall, they wernt for me....

    My car has a mind of its own at times(its used to a circular Tesco Tour), and it turned the wrong way and I ended up on my way to my big local Extra, where I am banned from,been stopped by security for "shoplifting" FREE Quit packs, and they even installed a new four way camera in the HB aisle,where the BC has her desk, and have stopped me twice at the door and asked for their coupons back.......

    Anyway..decided to brave it.....to my surprise there was an abundance of Persil...albeit no 25% extra packs and the "Colour" was only 2.85kg(although still 30 wash)...the cup in this one must be 5 grams smaller than the 3kg pack).....or its 5% stronger...............my mind is never idle.

    Spotted a couple of pink shirted under managers stocking the shelves, so asked if there was a bulk buy policy on the Persil....

    "How many do you want" he says..

    "well" I said "I've got 26 Coupons that give me 75% off"..

    "26 is too many...unless i go and ask the store manager" he says....." but you can have 6"

    ..."6 of each i said"...

    he thought about it and said "yes".....(Ive had dealings with the Store manager in the past.......so didnt want his involvement

    So I fills my trolly with 6 bio, 6 non, and 6 colour.....Gets to the checkout, and SA says..."Ive got to phone security if you come through with Persil again"....

    "Ok" i said..."but that manager says i can have them"....after a wait...i get the ok....although SA tells me my photo was taken last week....Quickly withdrew my £10 clothing coupon, and paid cash with NO clubcard.......left store..........but forgot my Robinsons........

    Loaded car and went back in......decided not to push luck with more Persil and just go for Robinsons.....so I stood in Persil Aisle, giving out Coupons until the shelves were empty....

    Spotted same manager and apologised to him for asking this....but "did the same policy apply to Robinsons juice as i had 26 coupons left".....

    He said he would seek advice from someone(but not store manager)...he came back saying i could have as many as i wanted, as long as there wasnt more than 6 of any flavour......

    Picked up my 26 bottles of juice and purposely went to same SA, who served me last time, as she was chatty(old moaner...but chatty)....where she told me again about security and photo...but said "You dont seem bothered"...I said "i'm not, as i'm not doing anything wrong...."

    Helpful duty manager came up and ok'd it(again)...but while he was there 3 of the couples I'd given my spares too went past and thanked me for the Persil coupons i had given them....must admit a "blushed" a bit....

    Left store and loaded car....a good ending to a good set of coupons......and came home with NO 75% off coupons...very satisfying.

    I await the "Tesco letter" if they do know me......but was careful not to use Clubcard

    Leadhead ALWAYS gets miles more than anyone!! lmao

    I managed 4 persil and was chuffed with that, although i did want colour and had to settle for non bio.

    Got 2 loaves. Didn't bother with the juice as it's full of chemicals so wouldn't give it to my kids and OH and I don't drink juice!

    Are there more due out this week I wonder?

    back to H&B, haven't seen ANY H&B leaflets for ages, butdid find a few SBs and got 5 small frizz ease John Frieda sachets for free!
