My Mum asked why looking for receipts was called wombling..... so me and my sister started singing the Wombling song.... and ended up changing some of the words as we were going...... I’m sure some improvements could be made... feel free to have a go! But this is our quick attempt.


Asdaground Tescoground Wobberling’s ‘free’
The Womblers of Supermarkets common are we
Making good use of receipts that we find
Those that the Everyday folk leave behind!

Womblers are organised work as a team
Womblers are tidy and Womblers are clean

People don’t notice us, they never see
Under their noses a Wombler may be
We wobble by night and we womble by day
Looking for receipts to pricecheck away!!!!!

Just noticed I put 'We WOBBLE by night'..... not sure if that was a typo... or if it's actually true!!!

Have been to 4 Tescos today. My reward was one measly jewel air freshener and 5 fly catcher thingys. I did spot a new item but didn't buy it, Wedding Confetti in silver box Tesco brand 4p, this was in the B1sh0p @uckl@ad store.

sorryaboutmywife

Treated myself to a far flung Ts raid last night. Both stores were pretty empty so as a result I had a triple trout experience
Thanks Nikkilala for your tip with the 1p items to scan a few and pay, scan a few and pay. Managed to get a few through then the Dormans got taken off me. Trout started going through my bags:eek: I snapped "You can't have those,I 've paid for them!"
In my panic/frantic scanning I put through a few Vacuum Odour thingys that look like the bin ones but scan at £2:eek: They went back for a refund this morning, the CS lady couldn't have been more cheerful:)

Other store I had a RTC bakery item that scanned full price. Took it to CS, got the old "we don't do DTD on SS tills" nonsense. Called duty manager who looked like she'd been varnished. Anyway, I digress. Duty Manager agreed with CS lady.
Me "Why have you got the policy stickered on the SS tills then?"
CS "oh it says price on SHELF, yours is on a sticker so it doesn't apply".
ME "actually it says SHELF or PRODUCT"
CS "well you're not getting DTD you can only have a refund and here is HOs number"

End result: call to HO, very friendly chap, disgusted with the DM, will be calling the store to remind them of the policy and £5 giftcard to me.

If this happens to you - make the call!!!! I felt horrible after that trouting, knowing the store is going to get a b*llocking and hopefully saved some other poor shoppers from being overcharged has made me feel much better.

Today my local has restocked the Andrex and 4p Littlest Pet Shop toys:j It's always worth another look.
