I've no idea what I would have done with the 3 knife blocks, 2 sets of crockery and the 8 or so other knives I had in my trolley but thankfully for me my store didn't have the glitch.

Well I dont know what to think.

I went into Asda today to get nappy sacks (which Tesco are no longer stocking according to numerous threads on the net) :rotfl:

I thought I was going mad as I haven't been able to find any in ages! Will check ASDA next time I'm there (I may have to resort to doggy poo bags in the mean time though :rotfl:)

Dont know if I am on the right bit here so please be gentle with me
I have printed some tesco money off vouchers from the supersavvyme website do I have to actually buy the products or can I buy something else and use them on that? I seem to remember someone else saying they had done it is that right? Can I use them on the self scanners just wondering

Yes, you must now buy the product that corresponds to the voucher.
You can use coupons/vouchers on self scan, but... they will be checked.

Welcome

To use the coupons you MUST buy the product the coupon is for. Yes you can use them on the self scanners but sometimes after 2 or 3 you need to get the SA to authorise and also getting them in the little slots can be tricky too. I always have to give the unit I use in my local Ts a good old bang :rotfl:

Slightly off topic but I came across this yesterday when looking for something else and found it really interesting. It is from the BBC Watchdog show

It should help us all with our buying "education"

Ditto! Although I'm the other way round - I use nappy bags for dog poo. Was near a Sainsb at the weekend so picked up 5 packs there. Their basics bags are also 9p/100.

Can't wait for an Asda near us...

He told me that not only did he have to man the door but stop shoplifters and check the CCTV by himself.
How one person can manage that many tasks at once is a wonder and no wonder he looked a little peeved.

My mum works at Asda, and the night time security guy is not only completely on his own for the whole store but also helps stack shelves! There are usually only 2 checkout operators, and they have to help restock too. Is a right pain as my mum is not supposed to serve family, so on a few occaisions I've had to stand around waiting for her to find another member of staff.

Unfortunately for me the one time she did serve me I'd just pulled and was buying condoms!
