Damn! I forgot to look in T's. I got some stuff in A's in though. I spent about £40 on clothes and I was crying at spending soooo much. It's the first time I've bought clothes (other than the odd pair of jeans) since 2006.

:eek::rotfl: Sorry I can't thank this Happs....it goes against everything I believe in :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Nikki....you readin this?? And this is your offspring?!!! :eek::rotfl:

Will you please stop flapping about your posts! you are one of the pins that hold this thread together:A
Items/bargains change all the time, it's not your fault (IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT) Just trying to remind you:)
Please stop worrying and give yourself a rest.
We are all here for you. Please keep posting your helpful posts:A

Thanks you very much for this Scamps :A

You really hit the nail on the head :o:o

Some of you lovelies will already know (don't worry I'm not going to go into detail or we'd be here all day! :o) that the situation I'm in is incredibly hard, infact nigh on impossible. It isn't something that's recent, it's an extremely complicated web that has evolved over the last 9 years and for the reason that none of it is my fault, yet I still get shouldered with the entire blame, I'm always always left feeling like I'm not good enough and that it is infact my fault. Not in my home situation I hasten to add, I'm very clear with who's in the right and who's in the wrong with that ;););) but I guess there's only so much faith you can have in yourself when your entire family are ready to shoot you down in flames and make it clear that you're worthless! :mad:

Ok going on too much, revelealing far too much. Definitely didn't come on to spread my misery! But with all your lovely responses, especially Scamps who read me so well, I felt like I owed you an answer.

Like lindos said, it's sometimes good just to vent :o:o (as some of you unfortunately know all too well! :o:o)

:Axxxx

It goes against everything I believe in too! I was hoping not to have to buy clothes for at least another 6 years!!

I had to buy these though as I need long sleeves to cover up from the mosquitos.....and to cover up my gut.:rotfl::rotfl:

A couple of the things I bought were vests so I'll now look like Onslo from 'Keeping up Appearances' :beer::beer:

Hello Elite

I had the most awfulest trouting today.

Went to T's to return my 6 lenor that didn't compare. I said I would like to return them & buy the ones on offer instead. Troutface cs scrutinised my receipt seeing the many vouchers redeemed (& her face getting troutier by the second)said go get the ones you want & I will do an exchange she proceeded to hold on to my receipt. I said I needed it as I had a price promise voucher (pookie love that word) to use (£6.02p). Uhh Ohh!! OMG big mistake:eek::eek:This really raised her interest :eek::eek:
I got the exchange & had to pay extra 6p as £1.99 vs £2. She began to write down all of my vouchers from receipt onto a scrap of paper.

Went & did my shop & could feel eyes on me at the manned checkout some guy with mouthpiece talking to sa. Put my shopping through then I presented my mocs & pookie. He said had to varify as never seen one before & suddenly this incharge cs person said "Have you used this voucher before"
I said "excuse me, of course I haven't"
"I've just seen the very same no.s at customer service". I proceeded to explain that was for something completely different it was for an exchange Bla bla!!

By this time I was fuming being accused of using the pookie before in front of customers. Anyway, she said she needed to keep my receipt. I said the receipt is my property it's about time you tesco employees knew their jobs & a few other choice words:eek::eek::eek::eek:

Went back to cs person as I knew she was the one who started it all & gave her a piece of my mind & explained how the other incharge person had made me feel very uncomfortable & how embarrassed I felt & that I would be contacting head office :eek::eek::eek:.

Got several more mags on way out but got far too many as is

It put me into a real bad mood & I couldn't think straight went on to A's & messed up my £15+ APG by not buying enough comparable items.:eek::eek:

My day had really started well though. I had been to my local Boots & bought 6 Soltan & glitch worked so £5.49 for all of them.

Sorry for long post. Probably doesn't make much sense but knew this would be the best place to vent:o

Chin up.

The world is full of people throwing stones at us. Its what you do with them that counts. Build a wall or build a bridge.

You dont owe anyone an answer, unless you know lottery results for friday, then i wanna know!

Ooh, bad times.

My approach would have been harsher. Id have called cs infront of them. It would have made her sqirm as much as she made you esp if you have a nice queue behind you!

Could be a double edged sword but worked a treat for me a while back when i was in dorset (:j hi fb crew!) and could do no wrong afterwards. Amazing how their attitude changes if you treat them with the same contempt.
