    Part of the Furniture 1,000 Posts I've been Money Tipped!
    See post below. I don't mind, and if she'd asked for a box before I had started paying for them I'd have quite happily of given her another one. :)

    It only annoys me when sheer greed by the staff comes in to play.

    Oh don't get me started on that. Last year I was in Uncle Phil's and there was this woman with a trolley full of meat. I asked if she was reducing it she said when she had the isle. She then finishes the isle I ask if she is going to reduce what I want. She says no and pushes the trolley into the bakery to reduce it (RAW MEET IN A BAKERY :mad:) in the dark. I walk off as she did have a quantity as I return she is just placing it on the shelf. Another staff member approaches and says where did you put mine she says all the stuff for us is at the back. He gets his bits and as he and she walk off I scoop the bits I want from their bit.:rotfl::rotfl:

    Tonight there was a nice roasting joint for £17 on the trolley. :eek:
    I asked if he was going to reduce it. Get told after he has done the isle. I go walking around and come back to see he has just reduced it and runs off into the back with it.:mad:

  • The four pack of cushelle is £2.18 on Tesco - 40p coupon is £1.78
    but as this is £1.80 in Asda it might give 38p back too? (plus 10% which I can't work out), not as cheap as andrex but maybe an option? Also £1.71 in |Sainsburys.
  • off to play the numbers game ;) I'll be back dead on 10:21pm. no pressure lol

    Nothing exciting doing in A's this evening, although it was nice to walk along without getting trolleys shoved into you left right and centre! But whoever thought it was a good idea to put that mooing cow in the milk aisle should be shot!

    Very clean car park, only managed the one womble, can input it in 15 mins or so :D

    We went Geocaching in te woods this evening and I've just removed 3 ticks from OH :eek: Gives me the heebie jeebies *shudders* Just hope there's none on DD, or me for that matter :rotfl:

    There's a fork in the road, which way will you go
    You standing still or will you step into the great unknown,
    Is yours to decide, this is your life.

    Finders keepers I say - you found the bargain therefore you have every right to buy as many as you want. If she had found them first, do you think they would have still been on the shelf for you to find?

    Not sure, although she genuinely only did want one. and that's all she took when she could have took more.:)

    Those are examples of what I don't agree with, and sadly I think this is happening more and more now.:(

    But then again, what do you expect when Mr T pays his staff peanuts in a financial climate like this. :(
