i know the feeling Artha,... and think most of us feel the same way...it would be nice just to not waste time if the lurkers could just say that they'd already cleared the store out!! :rotfl:

I know 3 of my local extras are regularly lurkered as each time I go..I look for specific things which have been posted on here...and the shelves are either stripped bare...or someones already had a good rifle through....When the salt and pepper thingies were posted a week or so ago, I knew I'd seen these RTC in one store, but not in any others, but as I was walking down the cutlery/utensil aisle I noticed someone had obviously had a play with them as there was salt and pepper all over the shelf...then one of them had been dumped at the self scanner....thats the other bit that annoys me...wish the lurkers would put their stuff away...it will only be a matter of time before Ts scrap their scanners if the staff get pee-d off with having to keep putting bundles of stuff away!

anyway, rant over.....fortunately for me, although I dont seem to get a great deal on the glitches, i dont seem to do too bad on the overall cheap bargains.....got the 50p bluray player, and last week a Vtech laptop for £12 (in Toysrus for £49.99!!!)...as well as a few other bargains...and as for DTD....well i reckon I could give Mr Lala a run for his money!!!! :rotfl::rotfl:

Thanks Looby. That's made me feel better already:)

:TNice to meet you. Never been to darlo for Mr T. I think you've only got an express in the Cornmill? so not worth the £3
in diesel for the round trip on a hunch even though I'm on the A66 on the outskirts of Stockton. Sadly its's slim pickings here on Teesside compared to the rest of the country(or so it always seems). I do know however(from a reliable source;)) that Stockton is a "flagship" store and gets internal rewards for performance. I think it's time the manager moved on:mad:

You're not alone, the Aberdeen stores are far too on the ball with their SEL's etc. I'm going to stay with Lala for a month so I can do serious bargain hunting.:beer:

Hi In the end I had to nip to T's and I've just come back, posting before reading back so apologises if already posted in my T's all the tins snd jars of quality street, heroes, roses, celebrations are down to £2.50 these are the ones that were half price £5 at christmas.
In my store the quality street had the longest BBE date october and also best value at 1kg. I got them for all the kids for easter instead of eggs.

Off to read back

Ahhhh that's very sweet Happy, Are you going to T's tonight?I'm off out in a minute, finished work, dinner eaten and that sweetpea diffuser smells gorgeous, will seriously get that "flavour" again but obviously on on DTD or glitch;)No way will I pay £6.50 for them:eek:And looking forward to lighting my colour change candles, quite fascinated to see how they work:)OMG I've just lit it, it's so cool, it really changes colour all the time, it must have a battery and light in it somehow, I love it:T:T:T:T

I went earlier and the few things I did try were all scanning as per the SEL.

Yes. However I haven't had any statements through ever. I've only recently joined up (september 2011)

Take the prepaid return offer envelopes and stuff em with other junk mail, pop it in the post.

Also use the ones that say fix stamp here,never do, wonder where they go.

On another thread, someone suggested fixing the pre-paid envelope to an Argos catalogue:D

Yes we have a small express they did have 1p eggs a few weeks back my first glitch and I am hungry for more just haven't found any - surely managers do move on to pastures new eventually - lol

I am venturing further south this weekend so may pop to north@ll3rt@n for a change as I am there for something else it would be silly not to

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Their might not be too many after Mr Lala has finished now;) My candles are so good, I really love them:)We are now having a discussion about whether they are heat sensitive or light sensitive because they glow for a while when you blow them out. But they also glow if you flick the lighter above them but don't light the wick, or maybe I've just got a dodgy one:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
