Good Morning All,

Thursday 20th December

Please tell us if any of them contain coupons or freebies or vouchers OR NOT !

Important details are:
The cost of the newspaper
Whether it's a regional edition

Expiry date of the voucher
Whether it's store specific and has a barcode

Remember if you go shopping look in as many newspapers as you can.
Post even if you don't see any coupons, and mention any offers that you see.

Below you'll find a list of the abbreviations and how to interpret them.

MOC - Money Off Coupon
Bc - Barcode, good chance of universal scan

Xwrd - Crossword
PUZ - Puzzle
T#3 - Token 3

It does work but only if you get a nice SA who will type in the code as it is not clear & not scanning.
All of the mails barcodes have been a bit fuzzy lately - r they doing it on purpose ?

worked OK for me - though the CA did ask a supervisor if she could take it - and the supervisor didn't know if they stocked it........ I said they did (honestly thought it was a Harpers one) - so I'm hoping now that they do actually stock it and they don't think I was telling porkies.
