Will look online at PALS thank you. :T

they might well be called something else locally but the concept is still the same

Or you could go straight to chief exec level. The complaints then get passed on to "middle" management to deal with

Which way you choose to go is entirely dependent on how serious your concerns are.

Feel free to PM me if there is anything I can help with

Currently making a list for Asda. PG Tips are showing as out of stock in Tesco on mysupermarket. Will it still compare?

Mine compared this morning

asda have saved me 5 boxes of the evening tea. is it any good? does it taste icky? wonder if my caffeine friends will drink it?

They're all drinking it in work and they (we!) are die-hard full fat caffeine tea drinkers

I quite like it. Word of warning though....you dont need to use so much milk with these. MSE on both counts :j:j

thanks for the updates. Don't think we would ever beat China and USA in the medal table but would be great if we could get to third place.

the only way we are beating China and USA is for them being disqualifed

We're above Kazakstan (SP). They were above us for FAR too long :rotfl::rotfl:

Blue Riband 16 pack £1.00 online and instore @ Asda:beer:

The 16 packs in tesco are 8 plus 100% free at £1.55. They wouldn't compare would they? I couldn't see any standard 16 packs yesterday (my lot love them!) x

Advice pretty please re Asda. I want to get Pepsi max from Asda and it seems to be comparing this morning :T Would it be Ok to get 4 bottles - I am a bit worried as everyones lists just have 2 on them.
I've also noted what other bottles people have been getting, not sure if any of ours drink these and pop we only really have on summer picnics (2 things that dont seem to happen any more)

How long are APGs valid for? The print is not good on mind, the expiry date is over the barcode, just wondering wether to scrap these and print them off again...

Oh, so he got away with it then?

I think you need to have a little chat with the store manager and make him aware of what is going on. When I had the problems in my local, the management didn't even know. Once made aware of it they sorted the problem swiftly.

Thank you.

I did;)he said that they've tried everything. They've done the reducing at the cabinet but in this T's they've had people put stuff in their trolleys 2 hours before final reductions and then gone to the SA to get it reduced down at 9pm! He's said they are going to have to rethink it again and I said it's quite simple, just change the reducing time by 15 minutes every day.The reason it's so mad in there is because they do the reductions bang on 9pm every night and all the locals know that:(

Sorry but I don't think it was a good idea ringing head office and highlighting that big APG's are being generated tbh. I agree the person who got hassle should take it up further but others shouldn't. As has been said previously there is a lot of people using the APG now and we don't want a cap like Tesco/Sainsbury's when HO realise that people are targetting shops. It is one thing to do it and Asda to say no problem, but what they really think and will do could be different.

I have done high value APG's for a long time but not many others had until recently and I'm sure a lot of high value ones flooding into cash offices will make them look into whether to cap or if it is worthwhile. It is like DTD, no problem when a few were doing it but when a lot of people started doing it then warning bells rang up at stores/head office.

Wise words.
