    @ Bully & Cornish - did you get my milky poo? Need to know before I deleted them ;)


    hi DWW , yep got the email thanks:)
  • Afternoon all!

    That flippin MC is doing my nut in!

    Ive got 48 out of 49 - so it says but I cant get "entertainer" - its stuck at a big fat duck egg - ZERO!

    Im posting (all genuine and within category) - what does SSM want me to do to become entertaining?

    Ive not been anywhere as lucky as a lot of you. Ive got 4 x £5 l2s vouchers, still processing, but I am still pleased.

    Im just curious to finish! Does something nice happen when you get all of them? Fanfare? 21 bottom salute? Nice juicy prize?

    I really must get over it and move on with something far more rewarding. Just annoying thats all.

    Hugs to those who need them, I am guessing that no one joined me for that spiritual "moc hug" last week then... although a small nivea one has popped up.

    What would you like to see back?
    Id love the whiskas coupons back
    Id love the dove deodorant coupon back (not cos I need deodorant, got enough for two years!) but because it often gave you more off your shop if you had a compliant SA.
    and would so love SSM main site to change theirs - like flipping groundhog day on there...
    Love, through the trees, past the sky, beyond the northern lights; and I won't let go. May your soul and spirt fly sweetheart x

  • Ive taken back cheese before. Something similar with Asda not comparing. Oh ages ago now, cant remember situ. They didn't bat an eyelid.

    Was overcharged on some reduced toms at Asda yesterday so went back today but apparently the £2 giftcard does not apply to self-scan. something to bear in mind.

    Thanks MAG - silly question but what did you tell them when you returned the cheese? I'm not sure I have the front to say 'I'm returning this cos your price check sucks' - was thinking of the usual 'I picked up the wrong one'

    HI DWW,received your email but just went to print it and message came up 'already claimed' .dont know if Bully had any luck or maybe they aren't able to be sent and claimed by others:(

    Well I probably did say I got the wrong one, probably blamed OH! lol.

    I do think all the price checks suck at the moment. Havent had a decent apg in ages, although my hearts not been in it really.

    Havent had any good mailings, till spits, points vouchers. Its been like a desert!

    My guideline for printing wombled apgs was below 50p and I wouldnt bother. Now they are so few, I print everything over 20p. My weekly average is less than £5 lately. Last year and earlier this one I was averaging £30-£40 a week.

    Have lost interest in spud shillings, swagbucks, reward tv et al. MC had my interest, but thats like watching paint dry at the moment, I feel as if Im "talking" to myself on there! Need a kick up mon grande derriere! if Im to accrue some christmas goodies. help!

    Yesterday I did an APG shop - value approximately £60

    Multibuys as planned made it £40.26

    Handed over a £5 off £40 shop from my Uncle :D, a couple of coupons, and another 4 BIG ωvalue I found up the Orinoco.

    Had to part with 84p cash :( ( :rotfl: )

    Expected my APG check this morning to be about £4.25 T cheaper and with the 10% extra a total around £7.60

    Imagine my SURPRISE :j when it was £8.01 cheaper giving a +10% total off £11.33 :rotfl:

    A multibuy that I actually GOT was NOT on the check - so despite 1 item missing and 1 item not comparable the A total was £1 MORE :eek: than I paid in shop :rotfl:

    Went back this afternoon and repeated the shop (slightly modified for MORE of "THE :beer: Multibuy") using the same payment method as before :rotfl: spending a few pence again :D

    IF it works - could be worth £15 to £20 :cool:

    Has anyone else noticed that asda are being naughty with our apg's. If you look at how many things they say n/a.

    I have had twix, cheese, soap powder, toilet rolls, cereal, in fact most of asda own make stuff as well. Even branded products that tesco definately sell.

    Booze hardly ever compares now.

    This means our wombled apg's are coming out really low compared to what they used to. They fixed the glitch they had a couple of weeks ago and now have fixed it to make sure they don't pay out I think.....
