  • A nice young man at leyland offered to let me use 2 £5 vouchers against £40 worth of shopping :j

    I'd echo what Carmina said about checking it hasn't been ripped out already....I found a NOTW paper on the shelf in the cereals aisle at my Tescos. Someone had obviously ripped the voucher out without buying the paper :eek:
  • that's so rude! there are people who would just buy one paper and think they were getting a bargain, then be gutted to find the coupon already gone. i am the only coupon queen in my family - the rest of them would just buy the one paper.

    i used both vouchers today in 2 transactions, and also used all 4 mag coupons (they expire today) so i saved £11.12 - not bad for a £1.90 outlay on newspapers.

    I have found that the magazine vouchers actually work after the expiry date.

    Please DO NOT use vouchers after the expiry date - it gives the store good reason to stop accepting moc's.
