    Sorry, that wasn't the intention at all. I thought that the link through to snopes would provide a bit more entertainment along similar lines.
    Surely you didn't really believe that he'd been playing with the guns in the local Tesco hunting department?
    Anyway, I've deleted the post as a gesture of goodwill - delete your quote and everybody's none the wiser again :)
    Can I help?

    Hi Guys,

    I've just received a letter from head office saying they might ban me from entering their stores :eek: :eek:

    I've posted the letter below:


    Dear Mrs xxxxxx
    Over the past six months, your husband has been causing quite a commotion
    in our store. We cannot tolerate this behavior and may ban both of you from
    our stores.

    We have documented all incidents on our video surveillance
    equipment. All complaints against Mr xxxxx are listed below.


    Things Mr xxxxx has done while his spouse was shopping in Tesco:

    1. June 15: Took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in people's
    carts when they weren't looking.

    2. July 2: Set all the alarm clocks in Housewares to go off at 5-minute
    intervals.

    3. July 7: Made a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to the ladies
    rest rooms.

    4. July 19: Walked up to an employee and told her in an official tone,
    'Code 3' in Housewares...... and watched what happened.

    5. August 4: Went to the Service Desk and asked to put a bag of M&M's on
    layaway.

    6. September 14: Moved a 'CAUTION - WET FLOOR' sign to a carpeted area.

    7. September 15: Set up a tent in the camping department and told other
    shoppers he'd invite them in if they'll bring pillows from the bedding
    department.

    8. September 23: When a clerk asks if they can help him, he begins to cry
    and asks, 'Why can't you people just leave me alone?'

    9. October 4: Looked right into the security camera; used it as a mirror,
    and picked his nose.

    10.. November 10: While handling guns in the hunting department, asked the
    clerk if he knows where the antidepressants are.

    11.. December 3: Darted around the store suspiciously loudly humming the
    Mission Impossible" theme.

    12.. December 6: In the auto department, practiced his "Madonna look" using
    different size funnels.

    13.. December 18: Hid in a clothing rack and when people browse through,
    yelled "PICK ME!" "PICK ME!"

    14.. December 21: When an announcement came over the loud speaker, he
    assumes the fetal position and screams "NO! NO! It's those voices
    again!!!!"

    And last, but not least ..
    15.. December 23: Went into a fitting room, shut the door, waited awhile,
    then yelled very loudly, "There is no toilet paper in here!"







    :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
    sorry guys couldn't resist :D



    Thankyou for this I was having a really bad day and have not laughed that much in ages:T

    Dont go back to the same store, if the recipt is marked r+r or refunded it will be difficult and proberbly not worth trying.

    "golden" r+r was an unmentioned thing on here, during the first console cockup we got alot of new people posting wifc1, leadhead, Plush Chris, Itscheapandiwantit and a load of others all started askng questions openly about getting a 2nd refunds and other stuff that were really thought of as the darker side of r+r. most of those mentioned have mellowed and are great assets to the forum but everytime the consoles or a hue r+r crops up we get the same hysteria and a load of new people posting questions. at the moment the postman is seen as a god apparently, he has been "attacking" stores as a group and has had a lot of stuff in a short period of time. but I and most other people realise you cant go at it like that if you want to stay in the game you never know what is round the corner

    I think it was leadhead how gave it the name and everyone now openly does it, before it was a we do it but dont talk about it. I personally think it should go back to that was as there are so many questions and early on arguments over it that it is a risky topic to discuss and the ethics thread was created to deal with it.
  • One theory to test for the discount failure is to buy the the X Box & GOW bundle & another copy of GOW or the PES bundle & another copy of PES.

    Slim chance but you never know...


    CAN PEOPLE PLEASE STOP QUOTING MASSIVE POSTS . IT IS SO ANNOYING HAVING TO SCROLL PAST REPEATED !!!!!! ALL THE TIME.
  • I have tried it renegade and it went through correct. It was a quick way out of the purchase though as I just said I had picked up the wrong ones :-)
    We took on Mr T and we won:D

    Shame it had to end, will have to get free stuff from comps now :beer:

    Whatever!

    Getting annoyed about having to scroll a little bit and having a go at someone who was actually having a bad day, no week! How mature is that?
