I know those codes are generic, so if I print that on A4 paper and cut it out, can you use that at a self service till and just pop it into the feeder?

Any chance of a cheeky colour scan? Was it on standard paper?

You can even scan it of your phone and put anything into the coupon slot at the self scan till, don’t think it will hurt much their billions revenue..

Could you not be done for theft?

Not sure, it's probably a 'false instrument' as defined in law but wouldn't be the same as trying it on with a bale of 50's you photocopied. However the law specifies inducing another person, says nothing about inducing a machine

26.—(1) A person who uses an instrument which is, and which he or she knows or believes to be, a false instrument, with the intention of inducing another person to accept it as genuine and, by reason of so accepting it, to do some act, or to make some omission, or to provide some service, to the prejudice of that person or any other person is guilty of an offence.


(2) A person guilty of an offence under this section is liable on conviction on indictment to a fine or imprisonment for a term not exceeding 10 years or both.

You could in theory, but chasing a 10e of 50 copy coupon would propably cost more than its worth.. especially they still make money on this transaction.. and if someone make an extra shopping and stocks up Tesco are the winners..

Coupon here if it can be for anyone's use.

There is a 2019 voucher a few posts up but copies are not accepted regardless so going to self service Is the only way if you’re that way inclined

This is the 21/07/19 Sunday Independent news paper voucher. It has the date incorrectly printed.

I printed off one of those 10 off 50 coupons posted a couple of weeks ago and it was accepted in the manned checkout twice.

Kenco Millicano - the larger tin is €9.99 for one but there is an offer of 2 for €10 on Kenco & other brand coffee.

Scanned at the checkout and got 2 x larger tins for €10, 1c for the second tin is a bargain!!!
