All those printed by tills can, such as in Sainsburys or Waitys. Wombling them is well worth doing, if someone has discarded one.0 -
There are fewer printed money off coupons nowadays. I used to cut out and give away the £5 off a £25 spend in Lidl printed in the metro and also pass on the £5 off a £40 spend printed at the till at waitrose but it seems to be all apps nowaday very few printed coupons available nowadays.2

That's fantastic, @punkrock101. Where do you usually get your coupons from, and have you ever seen anyone make use of one of them?1

I have certainly given coupons away- the £5 off a spend kind of thing not linked to loyalty card. We had a few vouchers though the door this year when the large Co-op had a complete rejig. I knew I would struggle to spend £30 in there! friends & strangers benefited!
(I even told folk about the frozen food deal which was something of a well kept secret)
and yes, I have also told folk about great deals in the reduced section if there masses of a particular item at a giveaway priceBeing polite and pleasant doesn't cost anything!
