    Friday: Music 1 : Easier
    :D

    Well I don't believe it! 2nd woop woop (so far). Got all ten in 55 seconds. :D
    Nowt wrong with socking it to em, just do it quietly!!![...]

    Agree in principle but some times you have to define your ground for future battles. :D
    Wise words.
    The first half, maybe, the second were purely selfish (and no manner of "but I posted this, that and the other that helped person a, b and C" will change my mind).
    That was me. Total miscalculation on my part so had to grab a tin of beans from the person behind. I just said, excuse me, can I just borrow this for a moment.
    I paid for it and left it for them it was a pressie! Sa was bewildered but found it amusing.
    Wasn't a big shop though.
    Brillaint! The other week when I was producing vouchers left, right and centre with the pizza and ice cream deal, I gave two lots of B&J's and 4 pizzas to a man behind me. I then saw him with his family a week later and they were all so nice (gives himself pat on the back). :rotfl::A

    Had a run around today. Needed some crafting stuff from The Range for the dads group and then went over to ASDA. Got a shed load of pop plus 8 lots of tea. Remembered my 8 items. Used my £2 gift card and 78p APG. Spent about £60. Results due in 30 mins.

    Then went to Mr T for petrol and had to pay full becaus eI lost my voucher folder! OMG OMG!:eek::eek::eek: hundreds of pounds of PPs, vouchers, receipts, all sorts. Arghhhhhh! Drove over to Mr T main shop and found it in my one of my empty bags lololol! :rotfl::o:o:o

    Got a load of Fruit Loops for DD at £1.34 a box - bargain. They are £8 a box in our local specialist shop. Looks like Kellogs are now importing to UK so woop woop! Got 3 variaty packs, some more pork (I have no where left to put it so it is pork, OJ and cereal for tea :rotfl: Got some Cinnamon Grahams too with the 50p off vouchers. Another 3 petrol vouchers, 3 PPookies used and hopefully get two £7 ish ones back.

    I hope everyone is enjoying their afternoon. Last day off work for me so I'll be back to being a lurker for a while. :(

    PS - Go Vicky Pendalton great race. God this in the bag! :T

    Completely the wrong attitude for this forum, IMO. Whilst I agree with what you're saying in principle, if I was out for myself, but I've had so much from the MSE forums that I like everyone to get the deal.

    ASDA will have to change their policy soon. I said from the beginning that this would happen. The reason there were 500 threads on Tesoc was not because their price teams are worse, but because we were all shopping there, targetting them. AS soon as single use £10 capped vouchers came in at Tesco, what happened? The flood gates opened on ASDA.

    Whilst it would be good for me to have my little haven, I'm all for one and one for all - not all for me. :D

    I feel somewhat responsible for the mass detour to Asda having highlighted the Muller glitch and the fact that other multibuys were being calculated funny. I've used the APG system for a while now to grab a bargain but never really paid much attention to the workings out until the Mullers & Fruit Shoots were paying dividends.

    I agree with others that things should be done in moderation but lets face it, we've probably all been guilty of pushing things whether it be using more than a single "one per transaction" coupon or going so mad with coupons that we end up with negative amounts (yes I have been caught out too when I first tried the Huggies starter pack).

    Everyone has their own limits on what they find acceptable. There are quite a few things on here I don't agree with but that's my prerogative. I keep schtum now as I've learnt that opinions differ and we're never going to get everyone on here to agree but I really would prefer that our Asda glitching was kept more under the radar. Phoning CS may have been done with the best intentions but the only people who should have been doing that are LadyLeenie and Looby123. The more people that call to 'query' the policy, the more likely that policy is to be changed.

    Can you point out where in my post it says or insuniates that I am all out for me please? I have given advice on APG's and answered any questions I have seen and encouraged people to do them not tried to put anyone off.
    I have ALWAYS tried to help people whether on here,the coupon thread or generally on mse and have NEVER taken the attitude of all for me.

    Exactly and therefore I had no idea why you posted what you did. It confused me. Mayhap it was unintentional on your part, and you were making a different point but you say, and I quote:
    BLUEWKD wrote: »
    [...]

    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.

    If that above doesn't state "It is OK for a few but will end if lots do it" then I don't know what does.

    I actually agree with you. It will end soon, or be capped. But that is natural progression. ASDA is now target no.1 because Tesco have sorted their system as has MR S - sort of.

    I repeat, it may not have been your intention, in fact I'm nearly 100% sure it wasn't, but the deep down meaning is there in the text. Sorry.
    I am firmly across the line. I won't impose my values on you if you keep away from mine.

    Not sure about Ts since they moved the already dodgy goalposts but yes, it does matter in As. You can't use batteries, books, clothes, entertainment etc to use as a comparable but you can use things like bin bags or clingfilm if that's what you mean?
