Well I had to face my fears! Realised I had no money and almost 30 quid due to school tomorrow. Getting off the drive was awful, going down street not too bad at the junction was scary but took it slow and was fine Decided to brave the road for school and OMG started sliding but went down a gear and I was fine, think I will park at the bottom of the hill and walk up tomorrow. DS has slight hyper-mobility so can't walk long distances with him plus he would freak out in general if I changed his full routine in the morning I think he could probably cope with a slight adjustment. Thank you everyone for the advice

Fudge2 thinking of you xx

Yup she told me no DTD as I went through a SS till, I rang up HO number and they told me to hold the line while they rang the store, the trout answered and for some reason I could hear the convo, the H/O chap asked if customers now had the ability to adjust the SS tills to ensure they were not overcharged, she didn't apologise at all to me and shoved DTD at me screwed up in my receipt - if she had been a bit more gracious I would have told her she had already given me JTD so now i had TTD (Triple the difference) but as she was such a mardy cow I kept the whole lot

I had a right mardy cow recently. Refused to refund me what I was entitled on 2 high value items as I'd been overcharged and given DTD. I explained that DTD was Tesco's apology for overcharging and didn't affect their 28 day promise of a refund for whatever reason. I was not by the way trying to claim the price I paid, but the price I should have paid so all was above board and honest.

She stuck to her guns and I snatched the receipt from her hand and told her how she clearly didn't know her job and that I'd be phoning HO.

I did so and HO phoned the store and she flatly refused to entertain the idea.

HO are sending me a giftcard for what I was entitled (HO chap was very helpful and knew his policies inside out and said she was well out of line and said it would be 'dealt with' internally....he didn't sound impressed with her at all) and told me to keep the items.

Her pigheadedness has not only brought some retraining to her store, but its annoyed her bosses and cost the company she works for a lot more money than if she'd refunded what I was due!!

Some staff can't see past their own self importance sadly.

I'll be in that store again at the weekend....I hope my giftcard comes before then as I have every intention of rubbing her nose firmly in it!!!

Well done on getting that many. I had got 2 clipstrips (41 in total) and left 2 when they were 1p each. If i had known about the tokens i would have taken the lot. Anyway few days later saw tokens on back of package but by this time they had been taken.



Yes definitely post them. You can get 3 cinema tickets if you enter your codes by end of month (double points)

I would send the tokens asap as u get double points til end of this month as been mentioned by someone else. I sent mine in a single envelope & they sent the 10 codes to enter online in about a week but you can only enter 5 tokens in a 24 hr period.

It would be a shame for the tokens to go to waste.

Thanks so much guys for your help. Im going to get them sent off tomorrow.:T:T

My thoughts on swearing and a new phrase that might be of interest..

I love swearing when I feel it is appropriate and do it all the time at work (manage an IT helpdesk). However, there are rules that I try to go by..

1. Never use the C word
2. Only swear at people who you know won't be offended
3. Try to change system passwords to make the punters laugh, e.g. bigbum, enormousbottom etc

When I have an outburst (I am prone to them), I tend to use a phrase that my 5 year old daughter brought home from school a year or so ago - Ah Bingers!!

Ah Bingers!! is a great phrase. To me it says that I am not overly impressed with what's going on but nobody thinks that it is a swear word so everyone is happy.

Try it.. From now on every time you want to swear, just say ah, bingers!! I guarantee you will feel great and the person you are peed off with won't take offence.

Ah Bingers!! Perhaps I should ask that it be entered in the Oxford English Dictionary??:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Holy Toledo! or Blood & Sand! are my expletives of choice. I have occasionally been known to call people 'baskets' or 'bar stools' but only ever under my breath of course!!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

My swear word of choice is fudge, for the f word, and sugar for the s word. I remember at one point we used to say oh four foot snake instead of...well you can guess but was so hard to get right
