  • Hmmmmm - just had an idea..... might get DS (aged 6 - but a Brill MSEer in training!! - he remembers the items more than me sometimes...!!) to do my dirty work..... get him to go up to the security man and simply say 'Why are you following me and my mummy??' hahaha

    But won't be getting them without the 25% off knitwear which ends tonight so it looks like I missed out! :cool:

  • do you think that by asking to speak to a manager though, that it may draw more attention to me??.. prob just follow me around on the cameras more maybe?? xx
    Can't draw 'more' attention to you if they are already blatently stalking you around the shop! & if they follow u on camera atleast you wont feel like someones breathing down your neck. It must be really unsettling, feel 4 ya but it needs dealing with.

    so i shouldnt say anything then?? - just makes it even harder to grab a bargain/glitch/4p item, when they are looking right over my shoulder... even follow me to the SS and stand right behind me where they can see the screen!!
    i always stand right in front of it, or make DH stand close so they cant see the screen though...(even if just buying milk etc... lol...just to annoy them) just a pain in the ar*e to be honest... they must stand o more than 12 feet away from me most of the time im in the store.. sometimes im i there for 2-3 hours too.... they must miss out on loads of shoplifters coz they are following me!! haha xx

    Turn around and follow them, I'm pretty sure a floor manager was checking up on me because I had been rooting through toys top stock. He was pretending to write on a piece of a paper but was spying on me so I walked next to him and he moved and I followed him up and down the aisle until went away.:D Or ask them questions all the time, do you know where ... is? Can you pass that down to me? You'll either make a friend or they'll get fed up doing your shopping for you.

    yeah ive had one DTD aaages ago on a art set thing.. was only abot 8 quid though, so mothing really to draw attention that way.

    did get trouted for having some 4p tights the other day, but they were following me around before that anyway... think this is why i got trouted TBH..

    only other thing is when i kicked up abit of a fuss over a PDF coupon they wouldnt accept aaaagggges ago (think it was for the Cheese or Honey shreddies or something at that time) and asked to speak to manager.. but thats it. x

    oh - ad Off topic even more.. but DONT get the salsa Pringles. they are blo0dy horrible!!! lol - just had some now...... (sickly smiley)

  • Hi peeps, just a quick question. If I wanted to buy the Timotei shampoo and conditioner that is currently on offer online (buy 1 get 2 free), but the stores don't have the label up, can I still have that offer honoured?
    I hate twitches, but I LOVE glitches!!!

    bargain hustler re the timotei.....may not honour as some deals can be online offers only (i've heard that excuse from them before)

    sunshine star if that's all you have done, i would speak to management, I get followed but it is with good reason, I have accumulated quite a few naughty glitches and DTD in my time x

    well, the 2 codes on the clothing have expired as has the 25% off coats and knitwear, i made 2 orders but faffed around far too much and wanted to get a couple more in, oh well

    drat got to be up for work, night everyone x

    well done motherbear, what did they look like?

    Thanks blondynurse, they were the same as the ones in the photo a few pages back.
    Sorry to take so long to get back to you I'm just catching up after being away for the weekend, if it helps any I got them at the R*th3rgl3n store.

    As far as I know if you get them in an Extra or normal store the offer should come off regardless of SEL's in store.
    If it doesn't happen to just say you don't want them as you thought they were on offer. :D
    Looks like last day of offer is tomorrow BTW
