Yes they have to authorise all the APG's and more than 2 coupons but they just put them through:T:TIf it wasn't for blinds it'd be curtains for all of us:dance:0 -

I am sure that such a big APG will draw attention ! I would suggest that you use it on a big fairly normal shop (one that doesn't include more wine!). Use it on a Saturday when they are busy and try to find a CA who looks like a student laid back' type. And keep them chatting if you can. They will have to call for authorisation as bigger APGs (I think> £10 ?) need a Supervisor to override. Hopefully the CA won't notice the details on the receipt and the Supervisor will be so rushed off her feet that she will just punch in her authorisation code and shoot off again.
Stay calm ! (and good luck). Probably best to keep your future potential APGs down in size (hindsight is a wonderful thing) and maybe keep a very low profile in whichver store you spend it in.
The apg you have just quoted was only for £5 or so, we did ask the op to post the details late last night so we could see where he/she went wrong.
Apg's over £10 don't need a supervisor to authorise, at least they don't in the store I go to.0 -

No they don't its just the sa, if they are not sure they call someone.........as I said before, choose your sa carefully.
Young lads are very good at these and the ones i've been to never call a supervisor or scrutinise the receipt.0 -
Why are HUKDers fools and idiots if they post MSE finds over there, but we are thanked and applauded if we import their good stuff over here? Wasn't the Lurpak an HUKD find?
Surely it is swings and roundabouts? Everyone posts their finds on whichever open forum they prefer and we all benefit. If peeps start only posting in closed shops we will all lose out. Prefer the idea that we can all share the joy0 -

So two coupons without authorisation on SS?:beer: (Just wish I could find the five beans! I guess they dont stock as its a small store.)0
