  • Good morning everyone ,gosh i read for nearly 2 hours on the elite thread last night ,wish i lived near to an Asda but noway would i be able to do some of the shops that are beimg done ,someone wasnt happy because they only got a £4-£5 apg on a £9 spend ,i would think these smaller apg would be much better than say £22 back on a £24 spend ,i can see this being the end of Apg or limits being put on.

    You missed the £42 APG on a £45 receipt then

    and more and more people are having their high value coupons refused and/or taken away to a PC where the details are being entered to verify validity, accuracy and that its authentic and genuine

    what a bunch of ........s


    You are all so correct :eek:. I have found myself getting swept away. The probs with the glitch it takes so much to get your head around how it works worse for people that have never done an APG many are so focussed on getting it right then adding cheap SP things to get their 8 items and not even realising what the APG is going to return:eek:. I got caught out on 2nd shop purchasing 6 of sauces returned £18 APG :eek: only hits you when you go to print voucher so now try & keep it around the £10 got lower but still ended up with a £15:eek: so think more work needs to be done to find normal purchases that are the same at comparitive stores ie bread drinks etc.

    Can't believe the people complaining and talking of returning:eek:. This is probably going to cause the end of APG or atleast changes to rules as people get carried away and do very silly things:o and I include myself in that over the last few days. I also think people expected it to be fixed quickly.

    So I think my rules for me are keep below the £10 and make sure you have geniune other purchases that compare equal to A's to bulk out the spend and show some restraint. :)
    Atleast this migraine will help hold me back as won't be on PC much today once caught up here will be signing out
  • Can you only do 2 quotes when you press multi quote as tried to also include Aesop post in my last post also:A.

    Think it is good posting these as makes us all stop and think what we doing. :T Although don't think the Elite thread would listen and you would probably be shot down for posting more's the pity:(

    After reading/skimming thru' elite posts - I would suggest that you print your price guarantee comparison details take it with you should they said its fake (this will show the breakdown of our shopping list & it will tele with their receipt to us) when you are redeeming your over £10 vouchers.

    I got £20 & a bit:eek::eek: wasn't expecting it I got carried away with TK bought 6 yesterday:o

    A's should check it themselves if they think it is fake. I don't understand why they don't:mad::mad:

    Hardly rocket science

    6 x £3 = £18 minus 6 x 19p = £1.14 + the extra 10% = £16.98 APG

    BEFORE any more items

    and as for the 1st point - Actually show ASDA the glitch on TK is the T price of 19p :eek:
