    Oh NO!

    I cant find my pencil case with all my coupons!

    Some SSM car coupons
    5 beanz
    greenz
    l'oreals
    can't remember the rest, but there were quite a few:(

    I never take it out of my handbag in the shop (just in case a SA sees me and marks my card as a 'professional couponer', and also the potential embarrassment of them all falling out and scattering in the isles:o)

    I'll not be able to sleep till I find it. Ive had half a bottle of albali as well:rotfl:

    Kadison, or anyone else whos gone back for another 6 bottles, did you use the APG from the previous time for another lot of wine?

    Im really regretting doing 6 instead of 3 twice, i was so excited that Id found the rose AND red, now I have an APG for £15 and worried what else I could buy to make my shop significantly higher if I only buy one lot tomorrow (if its still on of course) the more things I buy, the more likely I am going to cancel out the APG... its SO difficult to put something in my basket thats full price, it really is, its like stroking a cat the wrong way, horrible feeling:o:rotfl:

    When they give me receipts back I tear them through in front of the SA before putting them in my bag - that way I can dispose of it safely with my card details on it but they know I'm not going to use it again, and I know it's used so there's no danger of me inadvertently reprinting. I also tell the ones who haven't a clue that they need to check that the receipt matches up with the voucher.

    To those who buy vast quantities, really take the mick and draw attention to themselves, the question is very simple - do you want to get banned? These stores do not have to let you through their doors. To me, it's that simple.

    I agree, it is just not worth it. I staple the receipt to the APG so when I get the receipt back and it if is unmarked, I know from the staple marks that it has been used.

    Goes straight in the bin unless I am using it for the supersavvy promotion:D

    I did call Asda HQ when my APGs receipts were being put in the back pocket of the SA (:mad::mad::mad:) and they said all tills are covered by CCTV so that can track people who use them again so it is NOT WORTH IT!!!

    I stopped smoking and put on loads of weight, so I have 3 sizes of clothes. Im keeping the 12s and selling the 10s, I know I will never get into them again.

    A couple of years ago I sold loads of stuff and funded a week in Amsterdam off my sales.:T:T:T

    Just my own stuff, not dealing or running a business.

    Now Im just confused:rotfl:This is my work one, and Im at home, oops.

    No I was going to use the APG to get more wine but decided against it, I had a terrible feeling of inpending trout-dom!

    They are valid until 22-23rd September and I'm on hols in Weymouth from the 15th to the 22nd and will use them up there on my food shopping if not before on pyjamas and shoes :rotfl:
