    Hey Doc loving your last APG list all except the Jordons bits:T
    Now I know Sun & Tues suppossed to be a bad day for APG's but if going to compare with Sainsburys is today a good day in otherwards does A's or S's change their promos or prices tonight IYSWIM;) My local A's didn't have the beth mints had to go miles to the next Large A's




    My list only works if you are using APGs to get APGs without paying too much outlay.

    Still don't understand Sainsbob rewards - as I said before they capped it to £10 max :D don't wanna waste me time.

    I did my shopping on Sunday as well as Tuesday @ Asda. They changed their prices on Wednesday.

    Now it's illegal to write down prices in a Tesco supermarket :eek:


    I am nearly arrested for the 'crime' of doing a price check on some bottles of water


    I was almost arrested in Tesco this week. My crime? Comparing prices. Evidently, this is such a security issue for Tesco that it wants you booted out of the store. The deputy manager rushed up to me within minutes of my arriving at one of its London supermarkets. The security cameras had spotted me with a pen and paper in hand, noting the prices of goods on the shelves. "Excuse me, what are you doing?" he said. I told him I was, well, writing down prices.


    "You're not allowed to do that. It's illegal. Where are you from? Are you from the media?" I don't feel Tesco has any right to demand my employment status, so I just said: "I'm a private individual, I'm buying some stuff here, and I'm comparing prices."


    It obviously didn't satisfy him. "It's illegal to write things down and you can't take any photographs, either. If you want to check the prices, take the item to the till and pay for it there. The price will be on the receipt," he said, pointing me to the exit.

    Heads up for ASDA online grocery peeps,...with £12 cashback with Topcashback ends in 3days.

    http://www.topcashback.co.uk/asda_groceries/

    Wonder if I can price check for online orders....???? Any ideas???

    As my A's are very far and have to spend £3 for bus, for each trip:(:(

    ...All these APG lists are making me jealous especially since T's stopped taking other CS coupons lol...:o:o

    So is there a minimum spend for this?

    Do your shopping the usual way BL, the cashback £12ish offers come from TCB nothing to do with Asda groceries website.
