I got a free pack of chocolate hazelnut thins (a biscuit)on Saturday.

This is first time I have had a 'spit'. I swiped 'My Waitrose' but bought a <£4.00 single item.

Anyone else had a spit from Waitrose?

I haven't. First I've heard of Waitrose spits.

I don't use Waitrose unless something is cheaper in there/unavailable elsewhere in town, however I haven't always swiped unless I've known that there was a discount on the items I was buying. Think I'll swipe every time from now on.

I had one yesterday for a 1/2 price packet of Kettle crisps.

Didn't use it.

Eh? What are you talking about?

You mean you get a voucher for a freebie just by using your loyalty card? Is this advertised? A mistake with the checkout system...?

POPPYOSCAR

Yes, but they are usually things like save £5 when you order a turkey and 20% of a certain item etc.


Never had one for a free item.

I got a spit for £2 off their own brand Cornish Cheese today.

May take up their offer as it's normally £4 for 350g.

What is a spit? If you mean voucher then why not say voucher?

I've recently had my 2nd spit/till voucher for a halfprice morning pastry (they know me so well!)

Because we like to wind up people like you.

If I remember you don't like people to say Sainsbobs ect.

It's what people call a 'coupon' which is 'spitted out' of one of those machines which are near tills, hence the name.

Technically I supposed a Waitrose spit is not one of these as it's printed out with the receipt.
