    OK, for those of us with 24 hour T's, what time would you say the sale stuff will be out? Is 6am too early? :o


    get there before the riff-raff wake up is my motto! Mine opens at 8, then i just thought that another one up the road is 24 hour :j so i'll decide which one to go to when i wake up :)

    i reckon 6am might be ok

    Evening all, quickly posting before I go and catch up. Just back from T's and relieved them of these

    552815914_o.jpg

    At 31p a bottle :T:T:T:T:Tno SEl but I usually pay about £1.35 for this and refill my spray bottle with it. It's the all purpose cleaner Ecover Lemon 500ml size B/C004458 and I have a feeling this could be the old style bottle.
    Also couldnt resist a nice DTD on batteries and quite a lot of whoopsies.

    I got a pressie for Happy, glitched of course,
    See below Happy:

    Beware!!!! Glitching is addictive:rotfl:

    I did it at 6 oclock when it was on before and they had nothing properly ready as apparently the clothes staff don't start till 8. I'm going to go at 8. It probably depends on each store but I'm definately doing 8 not 6;););)

    Back from t's and I do believe I have had my first trouting - I had a £40 shop planned and everything was going well until we got directed further down the line to a till without a queue - I couldn't believe my eyes there next to the conveyor belt was display of batteries with the words printed on it "buy one get one free" - so of course I had to didn't I - I had 4 coupons in my purse so only bought 4. The lad on cs confidently walked off to the battery display so I followed as he walked passed the display at the end of the till I had to call him back and show him the sign - he grunted and said it was an old offer and that shouldn't be there. Now I have never done a dtd but I paid £31.96 and should have only paid £15.98 - how much should I have got refunded? I don't think I got what I should have done but he was having none of it my DD was wanting the ground to open up and swallow her (she is at that age where mum is an embarrassment) so I left it.

    Checked out the chicken and none to be had incorrectly priced/labelled - and there were no signs for cheese as 3 for 2 so perhaps that is a regional offer.

    If an experienced dtd'er can advise on what I should have got I will call HO and complain if it is wrong.



    Sorry but i think you should have been refunded £19.96 which is what you would have been charged if you bought 4 packets, If BOGOF was working which we all know isnt then you would have paid £9.98 but the fact you have been charged £19.96 means you have been overcharged by £9.98 so double it as per their over charge policy and that equals £19.96 (what you paid in first place) and 4 nice shiny FREE packs of batteries to take home with you.

    I found some on BOGOF and they went through full price at £19.96 instead of £9.98 so I got twice the difference, in this case £19.96. Got DTD without even having to prompt.

    It sounds like he was trying to do you out of your rightful DTD, I would fire off a quick e-mail to H.O if I were you, hth.

    Thank you will do that right now

    I always go for either half price or bogof DTDs then it's easy for them to work out and you get it for free!:j And sometimes I find items that scan at 8x the SEL...:eek::D


    Tinyshoes that's right it's the big reveal page you need Tricia and now it says they have 2500 likes...hope it's all MSE!!

    :beer:

    Had a great DTD the other day on a xmas item that my store had forgotten about as was in their clearance section with OOD SEL, not seen in any other stores but it had gone back up to full price. :eek: Got paid £4 profit to keep it.

    And let's just say I didn't only buy one. :rotfl::rotfl:

    Ooh maybe I should get into Facebook!! ;)

    Hope you don't mind OH did share with his friends, don't think he has that many that would be interested though.

    Perhaps someone a bit more savvy could point you in right direction but that time was before my OH liked it and the number came up in the bottle of beer on the facebook link after her put in his details. HTHs

    I think the stats you are showing is for the whole of San Miguel not for liking the new one on their page.

    The page i just liked from the link now says they are halfway there with 2500 likes
