DO YOU GET A DAILY PAPER?
ARE YOU A COUPON HUNTER?
IF SO....
THEN WE NEED YOU!
Too many of us are fed up with kicking ourselves at 9pm at night for realising then that we could have bought lots of copies of a paper with coupons in it!
It occured to me that between us all, we must cover most of the daily papers, so why not have a "TODAY'S COUPONS" thread where people post (for example)
8th September 2005
Daily Mail - £3 Olive on page 15 exp.5th Oct
Times - £1 off of any magazine if you buy in WH Smith
Sun - no coupon
Express - no coupon
etc...
and then the next day, we have a new thread started and the old one just drops off the board eventually....
I usually get the Times in the morning so can cover that one. That leaves :
Mirror
Sun
Express
Daily Mail
Telegraph (anyone ever seen vouchers in this?)
Observer (anyone ever seen vouchers in this?)
Of course, its also important for some of the papers to put your vague location as the northern and southern issues can differ.
So? Could this work? What do you think? Shall we give it a go?

At asda they don't scan. I managed to get two through by saying a friend of mine had bought the magazine last week and it had to be manually entered. It saves them refering the question to the checkout runner who might refuse... Good luck
