    Nowt wrong with socking it to em, just do it quietly!!!

    My OH got trouted on a set of denby in one store a while back. Snotty bird on CS thougthshe was lady muck!

    It a store miles from either of us but one I pass on the way to hers so just made it a mission to get even. I took 3 nice big DTD's from that store over coming weeks and also emptied the store of 1p boxes of chocolates and the £1 cheese.

    I felt good and they didn't know I'd had my 'pound of flesh'.

    I bought a bottle of single malt from asda last night and paid 56p. I went to a different store than usual and chose my SA carefully....a nice lad in his 20's who I thought would like some 'posh alcohol chatter' so I fired up a convo with him immediately and he was good as gold. I left with my head still well under the radar.

    Learn the new ways young jedi.................. :)

    My new Asda has only been open 2 weeks, but there's one lovely SA who recognised me Wednesday evening (when I got some great salad whoopsies) from going in there last Sunday, when I got loads of meat ones.
    I've just been in again and got some Fanta and PG Tips evening one and used my Irn Bru APG £7 odd with an SA I'd not seen before.
    As I was leaving the nice SA was on the SS tills and called over to say hello and had I found any bargains :D
    "No, just normal shopping today" I said ;):o:o
    "Come back tonight" she laughed!!
    I'm going to use this store for buying my Whoopsies and any items I know will generate an APG, but I think I'm going to save any bigger vouchers to spend at an Asda a few miles away (near T's) where no one will ever recognise me.

    I got 5 of the PG tips and 6 bottles of regular Fanta, so hope they compare later
    My husband says he will leave me if I don't stop shopping......... God I will miss that man.

    I managed to get a +£40 shop down to 33p using all sorts of coupons. Then i noticed i was ovdrcharged by 2p so got a refund and £2 giftcard :rotfl:

    I remember reading someone else had their shopping ring up as a minus figure. They had to borrow something from the next persons shopping to get the total into positive by a few pence so they could pay :rotfl:

    just brilliant - thanks for sharing:T:T:T

    Thanks. Ha, no I'm still at it. I managed 5 days then gave in. Although I've tried many times. Hopefully one day I will succeed.
