You went to London recently? I'M GREEN WITH ENVY! I did get to go in 98 though so at least I went. I don't have the answer to your question, but maybe tea coupons went out like toys in cereal did here. Or cake decorating sets on the back of sugar bags

Yeah I went recently and may go a few more times this year for my job. We recently signed some agreements with a UK based Company so the possibility exists for more trips! I LOVE THE PLACE! But there were no coupons in packets of tea............!

The line refers to coupons that are ON the boxes of tea which you would cut off the box. These were usually for money off towards the next purchase of tea with the occasional coupon towards a promotional item.
