    Yep.

    Nothing to do with me if the store does not train their staff properly.

    Not like i'm shoving it my jumper and legging it.

    What is the difference between using an APG twice, and doing two targeted shops, obtaining two APG's and using them separately ?

    One is fraud the other one isn't.

    I was honest with the customer services and they said it was fine. I was not dishonest. I asked if I could return them for another product and they said it was ok to do so.

    The reason I posted it was to tell others that they allowed it, If you didnt like the beans you could return them for another product.


    I didn't say you were dishonest, I said your actions weren't very clever. Drawing attention to the fact you'd got so many free cans drew a lot of attention

    a) to you and
    b) to the fact it was possible to get so many free cans.

    Funnily enough, encouraging other people on here to do it as well doesn't make you any cleverer.

    Carry on, I can't stop you, but you won't be doing it for long in that store and possibly others.
    Hope is not a strategy.

    Smartprice mushy peas compared today to 4p at T, 18p at A for APG. Do you all print APG in colour, just done one in black and white and don't know if it will be accepted ok. TIA

    I think you find that picking up someone else till receipt and then claiming the money could be dishonest or maybe illegal. Someone was taking to court for finding a lotto ticket and then claiming it. Maybe a little over the top but you could say the same?

    What about the claiming of other peoples tesco points. Just cos you can dont make it right!

    I have to agree on a potential grey area here because you earn money/points on money you have not spent. I do womble but I can see that some may not agree with it.

    What she means is that the other day I used a apg voucher and they gave me back the till receipt. I said I may reprint it and use it. Not in the same store but another. I got a lot of people !!!!!ing about it. I didnt do it but I wonder if people was doing it.

    Post it to me. I'll help you with it.

    Consider yourself slapped around the face with a wet fish. :D

    The 11+ police have started.

    Erm, does anyone think that any of the stuff that happens on here is exactly above board ?

    So how far a person pushes it, is up to them.

    If they get banned then they get banned.

    One person alone cannot ruin it for everyone.

    But a crowd of consistent users /abusers could.

    What is the title of the page ?

    "Grab it while you can"

    Shuffles behind HC's sofa, erm on second thoughts he did say he had a curry, maybe not, googles rentasofa. :D
