  • Well couldn't resist popping into A's again:o

    Did coke and nivea shop. SA scanned my coke from trolley instead of loading them all onto belt. Put my card in to pay then realised that my custard was still in trolley as cokes had slipped over it and covered it up:eek:. Boy did I pull my card out of the machine quickly and offer to pay for the custard..:rotfl:

    Popped back in for shop 2 which was a poo and facial shop. The 24p conditioner looked like it had been hidden away, right at the back of the shelf behind loads of the shampoo:cool:

    Luckily SA scanned through APG without even glancing at it and it was a rather large one.

    Everyday I keep thinking they will fix it so maybe will try another shop tomorrow.

    Hope everyone is well:)

    I bet that feels lovely saying DH ooh:A

    I was going to say that too :)
    Well been to A's again tonight tried 2 completely different shops not sure how they will turn out. One cleaning and the one most nervous the clearasil one let people know how I got on as they didn't have the cheap gel so got the 44p which worked with the shampoo so hoping will be fine

    Went on to S's got 3 x Desiree potatoes 30p from £2, 2 x cauliflower 20p from 95p half price Pork, Beef mince & lambs liver :j :j :j so it will be Shepherds pie for tea tomorrow and liver & onion for breakfast/brunch

    Ignore my last question I await your results AH :rotfl:

    Why did let them keep your signed receipt? I always asked for it. Infact I don't have to ask for it - my regulars always give it back to me.

    Answer to your question - they are unable to refund you cash or giftcard for the shaver foam because technically you could have bought from tekco:eek: you just have to bite the bullet & tell OH - shut up & just use it up:D


    Genmod - I'll let you know tomorrow if they reply back ok. Unless you try it again before I switch off in 10 mins.

    Good night all xx

    I know, I am a complete twit - usually I do ask for my receipts back (when they're mine anyway ;)) but we were chatting and i totally forgot that I did actually need it. tekco...what's that, haven't been there for weeks :rotfl::rotfl:

    1 x Clearasil Ultra Rapid Action 4 Hour Treatment Crea...£6.50£0.29
    1 x ASDA Extra Firm Hold Styling Gel (300ml)£0.44£0.29

    But gives over the £10 APG

    cleaning shop

    1 x Mr Muscle Oven Cleaner (300ml)£2.98£0.54
    1 x Buster Bathroom Plug Unblocker (300ml)£2.89£0.53
