    They don't type your details into the till, though, do they?

    Well I had a very good morning :j

    Stack of papers obtained for free.
    Got The Dam Busters DVD and the 1st part of the Pocket History of the World guide.
    Collected a Reese's bar at Tesco since I was passing.

    A minor deviation away from today's offerings into SPAR.
    SPAR? You ask!
    SPAR I say. FLOUR I say.
    If it's stocked they currently have 1.5kg bags of HOMEPRIDE for just 64p
    That's "half-price" on the "normal" price (as per the offer flash) of £1.29 although the standard original SEL has it at £1.44
    Anyway regulars to this thread should remember the Sun's Captain Crunch and some MOCs from last Thursday - YES, that's it - 20p OFF HOMEPRIDE.
    6 bags purchased - 6 MOCs - 44p a bag. BARGAIN !!!

    Back to today's freebies. There are FIVE Thornton's shops within 2 miles of home. You've guessed.... 5 boxes of chocolates - a WHOLE KILO - now waiting to be devoured.
    Did anyone get anything other than the one advertised and shown in the pictures ?
    I got 4 of those - 15 chocs / 195g packaged in the gold/bronze coloured box.
    One store, getting them from boxes behind the counter, handed me a dark RED box - 15 chocs / 215g - "THE WINTER COLLECTION" flashed with a sticker "4 new chocolates"

    So a very good haul altogether.

    Regards the Thornton's vouchers and recording details etc., only 1 of my visits resulted in the purchase actually going through the till. The other 4 they just took it, put it to the side and handed over the chocs, then carried on and served the next customer.
    There are 10 types of people in the world. ‹(•¿•)›

    Veni, Vidi, VISA ! ................. I came, I saw, I PURCHASED

    S LOWER CASE OMEGA;6.59 so far ..
  • Third time I have taken a newspaper token for free chocolate, and third time that they have told me that they onloy had a few and they had gone

    Do they need reporting?
