Yes, because you may be lying about it for some sort of attention seeking behaviour... *rolls eyes*

I've never been refused in all the co ops I have been to.

10% off for all NUS Extra cardholders at all times.
Zampone to pinkpanther123

I'm in the south east.
I have always been told that they do not.

Depends on the franchise, not necessarily area. For example belper town centre doesn't, but the other belper store 1 mile away does.
Also the coop card has changed, it gives 5% off or 5% cash back the card (can't remember which), combined with my NUS and cash back amex card it works out quite cheap for some stuff, especially as the till constantly churns out spend £20 get £2 off vouchers too every visit

No. They categorically do not. My closest once does, but there are 3 nearby that don't as they're part of a different collective, or something. Seems odd, not to mention annoying. Can't really get too upset though, as I got my NUS card via the HDUK route rather than the traditional method...

Including alcohol, wonder if Jim Morrison's will also oblige the discerning drinker that is the young scholar?

No - alcohol not included in morrisons deal.

Not much of a deal given Co-op are typically 20% overpriced...
escortboy to m5rcc
21 Sep 16#17
Well items which are £1 everywhere e.g. Tangfastics for £1 would make them 80p.
That would definitely be voted a hot deal!

Daft comment considering it's a convenience store not a supermarket. The likes of Tesco and Sainsbury are also known to have varying prices between certain product lines at different size stores.
You may also find offers at the Co-op which are closely matched to equivalent supermarket offers. In this case a card offering an additional 20% discount would make the Co-op on these occasions the cheaper alternative.

Eh, depends what you're buying. They usually have a decent selection of more ethically sourced products than most of the big 4 supermarkets do.

10% off baby formula isn't to be sniffed at, 20% even better
moneyballs2 to taker920
22 Sep 162#23
Baby milk formula is never on promo offer anywhere, and won't be included in this discount. That's because to do so is against the law.
It's also why baby milk is not advertised. (Only follow-on formula, it's milk for babies aged 6+ months)

Nus card is on the way. Good time for co op to give 20% discount. Heat added

Used mine in lots of Scottish stores without issue. Many staff were not clued up about it but just asked them to swipe it and it worked fine.

21 Sep 16#21
I've been refused in both the Co-Op's local to me in Stirchley/ Cotteridge in Birmingham with just the normal 10% discount. The staff member at the till said it was only valid if I used it in a Central England store.
martaluscious to Feline31

Same in Yardley store.
leonbrown1984 to Feline31

Hi Feline i second that! I've been in the same stores as you. Also the big store in West Heath,and the 2 smaller stores on dads lane and vicarage road in stirchley don't offer student discount either!!

My most local store is central England and doesn't work there. Another one less than a mile away does

22 Sep 161#25
hmmm that's a store breaking the law. I would keep quiet about that. presuming stage 1 is first 6 months, I can't remember anymore.

22 Sep 16#26
Yep £8 a tub, I usually get 6 at a time with no questions asked

Some Co-Ops can't do student discount if you give them the Co-Op loyalty card first, I think it is called dividends card. Either the software messes up or the till operators just don't know how to get around it.
Babbler to UKPokemonMaster
23 Sep 16#41
Thats because they use their own loyalty store card for the discount... check your receipt it shows their card number...

We are surrounded by co-op stores where I live, and compared to the other main supermarkets I find co-op stores pretty bad in terms of staff / service, variety and quality of food and prices / offers (the very limited one in this post is a good example). They also have a convoluted loyalty system. Sorry for the mini-rant, maybe I'm the only one who feels this way.
bbgun24
22 Sep 16#32
It's only NUS Extra right? Or does regular NUS work as well? You've normally got to pay for the extra card. When I had one years ago it was £10
Mashhhh to bbgun24
22 Sep 161#34
Normal NUS get 10% (or possibly the 20 in this case)
marko4ever24

does anyone know if it is 20 % off in scottish stores?

The Co-op loyalty scheme has always been crap. They don't even seem able to send out key fobs, which would make it so much easier to earn loyalty points. Here's hoping they've actually included some key fobs under this new scheme.

The Co-op will soon be introducing an additional 5% card discount, on top of the existing 10%, when buying own brand products.
10% Discount applies to any of The Cooperative Group Stores.
20% on any Midcounties Coops until the end of this month. Then 10% afterwards.
Unsure about the other Coop Societies as I have none near me but as Mashhhh said in an earlier comment found here: http://www.co-operative.coop/find-us/

I live in Lincolnshire, and they accept them in the two in our town
GAVINLEWISHUKD
24 Sep 16#53
They are group stores (head office Manchester). Central England have many stores in Leicester (head office Litchfield) that don't take it. As an example Mill Lane Enderby don't take it.
If you look on the coop store finder it tells you who runs which site.

Co-op and the Midcounties Co-Operative are separate businesses. Please adjust the title and the photo if you don't want to disappoint people. On the other hand, they could probably use their brains instead, I suppose. For a treat.

Just got 10% in Croydon :disappointed: the discount has made having an nus card worth it though.

It's being planned at the moment you'll find out soon enough. :smiley:
Opening post
They had the details on a leaflet, I'm pretty sure it said it ends on the 21st of October.
Can't find anything online about it either.
Went back to the store for the leaflet. Website here.

Not sure if it is store specific. Hopefully not a goose chase, and helps a person or two.
