    I don't have a local Tescos and also I am new to this site, whih I think is great!!!, so I just wondered if you could advise whether Tescos take al vouchers on any products, not just the item mentioned on the voucher.

    Thanks :beer:

  • seems to depend on who serves you some take vouchers and some don't, i get around this by using the self scan which doesnt seem to mind how many vouchers i use, it often says on the self scan authorization needed but all that happens is someone comes along and enters a code number and all is ok, they dont even bother checking that i have put the coupons in the slot
    Another day another R&R

    I usually pick a young man on the checkout. When I go with a fistful of vouchers, I usually wear a low fitting relevaling top , short skirt, and plenty of perfume, and make smile very sweetly at him. Needless to say it works every time.

    Men, theyre pathetic sometimes.

    That's not a bad strategy either but I doubt very much if I'm going to be able to employ it with any degree of success, I think that the following maybe issues :

    1. I'm a guy.
    2. Don't have much of a collection of low cut tops, and short skirts.
    3. If I start smelling of perfume the Missues will not be HP. :mad:
    4. If I had any items in point 2, I have hairy legs, etc. Suppose could used WK razors to remove this issue. :D
    5. I do a fair amount of weightlifting and as a result have muscular, legs, arms, chest, etc, a turn-off for most checkout guys, even if I can get them to believe the drag queen act.
    6. There are certain things that would give the game away if I was wearing a short mini skirt, that I'm afraid are going to be difficult to hide. ;)

    Although maybe could employ the tight shorts and skimpy lifting vest technique on some female checkout's but there a bit more on the boil normally. :cool:

    do you need to ask for the petrol voucher after you've spent you've £50 or should it come automatically?

    It comes off automatically, tho not all Tesco stores have the promotion at the moment.

    Went to my Tescos today...they all sold out! Pah!

    BUT!!
    Went into Boots to do some shopping...went to look at the blades and they were £4.97 for 4 blades (with £3 coupon). However i saw a little tag say £3.50 special promotion. Brought it to the till to query price...the tag was a promo that has passed, but they honoured the deal anyway. So got 6 packs...£21 and managed to use my Love2Shop vouchers! Result!!

  • Promotion finished tonight. Went in to Tesco's tonight to buy the WS blades and they were shelf marked 4.98 but scanned at 2.98. Bought the last four packs and four niveas (bogof display had been removed). The young cs accepted the four coupons off the front of the blades and also a King of Shaves coupon for a pound I received in the post today.
    4 x blades = 11.92
    4 x nivea = 2.00 (9.96-7.96)
    coupons total = 13
    price paid = 0.92
    :T :T :T

  • just been down to local tescos, saw both razor at 3.64 and blades at 2.98 but nowhere could i see the vouchers i might add that the tescos was only a small branch [ withernsea ]. The branch are a bit funny about taking vouchers i need help here please.

    Aah, Withernsea. That perculiar place where women have 'Adams apples' and your father and your brother are likely to be the same person. The family tree has just one branch and webbed fingers are common place.

    The problem with the staff at Tesco's Withernsea is that most of them came from Proudfoot's - probably the worst supermarket in the universe so you've got Buckley's chance of getting any help.

    I'm having to shave six times a day in order to reduce my razor stock-pile, and shower 10 times a day to reduce Lake Nivea.

    Costing me a damn fortune in water and gas !! :mad: :mad: :rolleyes:

    I feel like I've signed up to some sort of !!!!!! site after reading Kenny's attempts at cross dressing - who knows you could be a natural :-)

    Shame about the razors going off promo, we'll just have to find the next lot of offers that come along. Maybe some moisturiser after all that shaving...
