    Morning all...

    Just caught up with yesterday's posts.

    MT sorry to know about the missing digit on the receipt. In my opinion you can go to CS and let them know the problem so they can check other receipts from that till and can sort out the problem. Also as BL has suggested you can get re-print of your receipt from CS. Hope you are feeling better today hun xxxx:A

    Jeff you are so lucky for not being asked for the receipts especially on the back ground of all the trouting experiences people are posting. Sometimes its good to be in a small store rather than in a big city store ;)

    BP I would like to add my BIG BIG THANKS for the job you are doing hun xxxx Its so much easier to waddle through all the posts on elite. You are a star....:beer::beer::beer:

    CL sorry to know you having problems at work. Hope you get it sorted soon hun xx Do open up here at least we can send you virtual hugs your way (((((((CL))))))))))

    AH thanks for asking. WM hopefully is working today. Will try with 1 more load later today.

    Blue sorry to know you got trouted. May be we all should go to Jeferey's store ....:p:p:p:p

    Time for me to TIDY HOUSE......:o:o:o:o:o:o:o as its soooooo messy that I don't know where to start from LOL....:(:(:(:(:(

    Have a great friday everyone...:A:A:A

  • hi IS

    feeling abit better today
    but really can't make up my mind what to do about receipts:(

    i've been very lucky with this store so far, stayed under radar and no probs with excepting APGs so very reluctant to draw any attention to myself.
    receipt have total £30 APG use on them and new APGs will be £24 so they will know i'm near my limit. as a regular user of store with coupons anyway some know me fairly well.


    thinking another option would be to go to my next local store with APGs (missing number written on corner) then if queried say prob with till & CS said to write missing digit on receipt so they could check it matched on there system.
    that way if any probs i could still use my regular store.


    oh i don't know:(:(:(:(:o

    oh i don't know:(:(:(:(:o

    If you have no problems using apg's in that store then why would yo be bothered about using one which you have figured out the missing digit on? If they say anything just be honest and say you figured out the missing digit so you could input it onto the website. I wouldn't go to cs about it as you are then bringing attention to yourself, esp if you get another receipt printed cos they will look at the receipt/what you bought more closely. Then just avoid that till.
    Be thankful for what you have because it could all be taken away tomorrow.;)


  • Hi sorry if this has already been asked. Have just been reading through a few posts so understand the system a bit. I wanted to know if the shampoos still glitch. I've searched for 'shampoo' in this thread to find out but it's not really clear. Hopefully someone can help.

    Apologies again if someone has already asked. Been searching like crazy.
