    Can I ask what Model of phones and barcode please? Was the SEL out of date? Thanks

    Forgotten the model numbers as I am at work, they were both O.O.D. SEL'S so will be store specific unfortunately.

    I just say that, I automatically put my pin in as the kids were screaming and just wanted to get them to the car, so wasn't paying attention.

    I think all stores are made aware as to what department has made a loss or there were losses as I overheard a team leader meeting this morning whilst eyeing up some electricals he did go through each department and call out all the figures, some were in thousands,, the head honcho was NOT impressed at the figures, a woman tried to explain and he raised his voice saying, I DONT GIVE A DAMN ABOUT YOUR EXCUSES, you get paid to make sure it doesnt happen. You better pull your finger out and make sure it doesnthappen again I felt so sorry for her, being publically humiliated in such a way.

    Oh no. I feel really bad about getting dtd now!!!!

    Dont feel bad, he was right they do get paid to do their job, but we get paid better for doing it for them.

    I wasnt sure if it was specifically DTD or general wastage, like OOD food, theft etc.

    Complain to head office and they will send you a gift card

    Complaining takes zero effort as well :)

    That is sometimes right, depends what you paid, and what you should have paid.

    For example, I bought the barbie car Paid £25, should have paid £12.50, therefore the difference between the advertised price and how much I paid is £12.50, double that and they owe me £25.00 which is exactly what I paid, therefore getting the car for FREE.
