    It wasn't aimed at anyone - just a comment on the overall discussion. Its never worth taking a chance on Gap nor arguing the toss after the event - they can be VERY picky and usually stick rigidly to their rules. Some of their rules have no bearing at all on the job results but, if thats what they want, its best to stick to it. Its annoying when they reject your results but thats just Gap!

    I think the problem wasn't that borders was unaware of the minimum, but she (he?) managed to pick up chocolate that was BOGOF therefore the price went down at the till. Much like if you're on a pizza job and they encourage you to get a meal deal it would be stupid and suspicious to say no.

    I took a coat. It cost £11.75. Look at it as a loss making job.
    I get what i want. That isn't because i'm a brat or spoilt. It's because i'm determined, i work hard for it and i achieve my goals!

    I can't afford loss making jobs! Especially for the company in question, what's the point? :o

    I would think a shirt or blouse would be cheap. They used to be £3-4 but I haven't used a dry cleaners for years so I could be well out of date. Could you find rough prices from another retailer?

    Your right. A Freebie it was. I have a cream summer coat and it needed doing. I wouldn't mind but the dam thing needs doing again since i decided to trap it in the boot of my car lol should have got one but didn't since i didn't need it. Serves me right!
