    Maybe i've gone way too far on the first go :o

    Didn't really understand the rules so thanks for letting me know! Next time I won't be buying so much, I'm really nervous now about using the voucher :(

    I won't be using this voucher until next week so hopefully doesn't impact anyone on here wanting the same.

    Sorry again guys, didn't realise

    It might be an idea to use it in the clothing department, if/when queried you can be all 'I was so surprised to get so much, I thought I'd treat myself to new clothes' or suchlike. Act innocent!
    No, Mr A, that is NOT 'Great news'!!:D

    Wombling totals: Oct = £243.32 - £93.32 over target!
    Nov Wombling Tally: £27.36 so far... behind target :(
  • Afternoon all!
    Does anyone know how long a strained ankle will take to get better?
    I'm still hobbling around at the min and the bruising has come up but I just want to walk normally!
    It's also my last Friday off tomorrow as I start fulltime on Monday. It's been a long time since I've had to work five days.
    So I plan to have my last Friday afternoon in the pub, then back to mine for some wine or possibly a few Bavaria.
    Glad the Tomato Ketchup is still working. I got enough yesterday though I think

    If only new people to this thread would read over a few pages to get to grips with the shopping and getting apgs

    Looking back I see plenty of posts with the usual 8, 9, 10 + items in their basket so why do others seem to think that going ott is the way to go is beyond me

    Yes I have taken part in apgs myself bt only stuck to the required amounts so as to keep my head below the radar and no doubt I'll do it again :cool:
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    Am very new here myself but it would be nice if people could let others have a chance at glitches before posting their ' stashes ' if that's what floats your boat.

    That is what I would do. Buy some clothes and then take them back and hope they give you ordinary gift vouchers that you can then use to shop for groceries.

    are you for real? Can't quite believe that if you've done as much lurking as you say that you've done and yet don't realise the potential consequences.

    Mr a is very kind to offer us a wonderful bonus of apg use - there is really no need to be stupid about it and do it to death. What is so difficult about splitting the items up and therefore helping to keep things under the radar.

    Id second this! When I used one for £15 recently, lady said shed never seen one so high. Said I know I couldnt believe it! She scanned it fine and said well done. Maybe use it in a different store? Or with clothes as suggested.

    New he might be but most of the elite wouldn't have the nerve or the b*lls to try that amount of stuff in one shop. Its so not necessary and this sort of action will def kill off APG usage. Those of us who go back a bit have seen similar things happen:(

    Hi all,
    Hope some one can help. I had a Tesco grocery ordery delivered on 27 August and have just realised that one of the products on offer was not discounted. £4 overcharge, can i get DTD for online orders and how do i do this?
    TIA


    i dont think you can get DTD on online shops

    Give CS a call and see what they say
