Sorry I can`t congratulate you like some. In my mind it`s still pushing the APG to the limit.
I also think you should have thought twice about posting it on here in full detail.
A short "Everything went ok" post would have been more appropriate.
Long may your "Fame" on here continue?

Some of it 'may' have been a bit tongue in cheek methinks

I understand what you are saying. But many the criticisms have been far more than that. I see many shops posted on here which are basically pure APG items with minimum cost items to pad the shop out, but still low cost/high reward. If you do that every day, or several times a day, or split it up into several on the belt, then really you have no grounds to criticise others for what may happen to the scheme.

There are also people here getting stuff they don't need and giving it to a food bank.... now that sounds all very noble and good but if it is basically free to you then thats costing Asda! That is surely just as bad? If you just get what you can use, and need, then fair enough.

I know it seems now I am judging, all I am doing is trying to make people see that doing a big APG shop of £40 or so is no worse than doing 4 of £10. Yes it may get noticed more. But to use the analogy above - it is still shoplifting (even though it isn't)

Yes sum people are doing so many shops to generate an APG but they are not drawing attention to themselves by having huge amounts on it. I would certainly take notice if I was the SA and was handed an APG for £50 the SA could have a look to see what's been purchased, then before we know it the glitch has been fixed. Preventing others from benefiting from it. Where as, if the APG is kept low then highly unlikely to turn heads. It's common sense.
Simple really - don't just think about yourself. Think of others.

No one is saying it's any worse, just not sensible.

Very true, can't thank everyone on here enough!!!

I'm back to work tomorrow so this is probably a 1 day mad buy for me, i'll use this information and contribute on our weekend weekly shops. So no more big APG's for me.....until Xmas!!!

:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j

Chortle, chortle, chortle. Aye if you say so. IMHO I don't think you will be stupid enough to brag about it again on here, but I have no doubt whatsoever you will continue to generate your BIG apg's you couldn't help repeating it when you went for your second shop.

Yes you can but be aware that that SA will check your reciept so it nay not be the best idea to go buy all the same stuff again

There isn't a limit as to how many you can use in one shop, just basic common sense

dont intend to buy wine tk, havent got any more room for it!

Go like me and get 1 tin of beans every shop:D
