Thank you for the tip, I did not know about that. I will make use of this coupon book.

Either way a year of smart shopping will get you nice bank of miles and who doesn't need food anyway?!
Keep in mind that in Germany you mostly only get one point per two euros in most of the shops. So it is not such a good deal as one might think. The only way forward is by using multi points coupons where possible.

With this one right now I am totally stuck. I am in Dubai and I can’t sign into my COOP account, nothing seems to work. I suppose I could call the customer service, but I can’t really be bothered right now. Wrote enough about this elsewhere, so I’m verging on crossposting here!
