    You can still shop tomorrow, just make sure your apg is under £15.

    Any apg's we have, I have two over £15 are still valid so thats OK.


    I used one for £15 today, I got £5 of it put on a xmas gift card.

    I have 4 x APG's over £15 totalling £90:(
    Be thankful for what you have because it could all be taken away tomorrow.;)

    I can see lots of problems with this £15 cap. The store I went into today told me it was £15 worth of apg's that you can spend. So you can't spend loadsa apg's if they amount to more than £15 total. Luckily it isn't one of my regular stores

    There is just going to be loads of confusion and stores will be making up their own rules:(

    Will lead to yet more trouting:(

    Might be worth ringing customer services and getting a reference number saying you can use them. I did this when one of my stores refused my APG. You don't have to give your real name or the receipt/voucher details

    Tomorrow would be a bad day I think, for using coupons over £15, but Monday the change will be in place and hopefully everyone will know whats what.

    Good idea about contacting customer services at head office before shopping if you have a big apg. Should help avoid too bad a trouting at least.

    I am sure you will be able to use them, just not all at one time. I would do as BP has suggested. Phone head office and say you have ONE apg for just over £20 can you use it. Don't tell them you have 4 of them though.


    Actually just checked and I have 3 for just over £15.
    I just might try and use one tomorrow. Just to be awkward like:rotfl:
