    Hi i wondered if anyone could tell me if theres anything in particular i should be looking out for with the toys in Toscos. Is there specific items i should be keeping an eye on or is it just a case of scanning everything to see (my tescos decided to turn the 2 scanners we had off months ago!!:mad:) I have seen on here people mentioning mega blocks which im really interested in finding i just wondered where i should start to look, is it things that are already reduced but then are actually scanning at less than advertised? thanks in advance for any help :)

    the mega block items i got were just on the normal toy shelf with yellow price cut sels i dint notice them at first it was only when i looked closely i noticed the low prices hth:)

    PP worked for HD & CT deal - we got 2 cheese CTs & Strawberry HD & a Praline HD + 55ps worth of 7 items = £10.55

    Price promise for £6.25 :D:D

    Phew thanks for that Snap, I was panicking about the Strawberry HD! Just hope the Pepperoni pizza is OK as well, thought I had 2 cheese ones, but apparently not :doh: :rotfl:

    back from T's and they had no reduced toys:(. took quite a lot of lego and various bits to scanners but none on reductions. had to think quick and tell my boys they were the wrong ones as to why we were putting them back on shelf when they wanted them, especially as putting them back right by members of staff
    will try another store tomorrow

    There was a big 'clearance' se ction in my Extra, there was toys and clothes in it. All the reduced toys had yellow sels. Hope you manage to find what you're looking for for the boys :)

    I did notice there was some other toys at the end of an aisle but that stuff had yellow reduced stickers on it, don't know if that's of any significance though :think:
    ...those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

    There's a fork in the road, which way will you go
    You standing still or will you step into the great unknown,
    Is yours to decide, this is your life.

    Help :eek::eek::eek:

    i'm having same problem - can't print my APG :eek::eek::eek::mad::mad::mad:

    we have 2 laptops connected to wireless printer

    i printed them off before from one of the laptops

    i have reached a £100 limit :o

    i cleared cookies / browsing history etc. on both laptops, tried using IE in private mode, different email addresses, post codes ect..

    NOTHING is working :( i can't print my APG :(

    do i need to go to library to print them off????
    this is from last week. it happened to me, that my apg was reduced to half price as i'd reached my limit. i pm'ed another 11+ member the details and he could not get any better result. so in effect everything was different laptop, ip address, email, home address. so once entered thats it. i have not made that mistake again.
    in the past i have managed to get the full amount but i think they have updated their software.

    should have caught up on here before shopping, would have known to look at the olympic mascots then, never mind
    for anyone local to me- was very surprised to find all 3 scanners working in the big T's (H@stings):D

    Got trouted today....... i tried to use a £15.55 apg. It appeared that all tills had a photocopy of an apg coupon saying 'dont accept any coupons with this barcode.... these are fake'. Sure enough the barcode was the same 999 one. She called over sv who said it was a fraudulent one theres no way i could get a £15 coupon on a £25spend. I protested my innocence and said that i didnt understand why it was so high but i just followedcthe instuctijns online and printed the coupon. She continued to say it was a fake and i was fraudulent in a loud voice so that everyone around could hear... it was awful.

    I debated about what to do next and thought if i walk out now then im going to look guilty so i asked them to put the receipt through the apg system.... my transation was suspended.and.they took me to cs desk and they all assumed it was a fake, however they came back from back office saying that it was genuine and that there must be a problem with the apg system reading the wines.... they never mentioned ketchup or shampoo! I said i was more upset about the sv embarrassing me and saying i was fraudulent in front of a lot of people cs apologised and gave me a £5 giftcard (woopdedoo). They said that they will also let till staff know that they are not all fake

    Needless to say it was very unpleasant and im worried about spending other apgs over 10 now (i have 3)

    But worst thing was i had dh with me and made him do a shop at a different till and he got pulled up too, they didnt say it was fraudulent just that he couldnt use it, so he left all his stuff at the till. They tried to keep the apg and receipt but he fortunately stood his ground and got it back. Hes always been suspiciuos of my so called dodgy dealings and is now guilt tripping meabout time wasted and no food for kids over the weekend! My shop that i didnt manage was more bloody wine and shampoo!

    Ps pls excuse typos.....i hate tying on tablets

    Afternoon all

    It really must be just certain stores where there are troutings taking place.
    I have been really worried about using mine as they were nearly all around the £15 mark and I had two for £20, where I completely misjudged the shampoos.:o:o

    I used a £16 one last night in my little local as I knew the SA was lovely. I told her I'd been dreading using it and she told me not to be daft!!

    I've been to a larger store this afternoon, and decided to bite the bullet and get rid of all of them. :eek:
    I bought an ipad for £329 and used 10 APG's to bring the total down to £198.43 :T:T

    The SA called a supervisor to ask if it was OK to take so many at once and my heart sank :( I was expecting the trout of all troutings but she couldn't have been nicer :):)
    She said she was amazed when people said they couldnt be bothered to check their receipts when you could make such huge savings.:rotfl:.....I was just thinking please don't look too closely at the receipts and see what I've actually bought :o:o
    She said that she hoped I would tell everyone to use the APG as it's daft not to. ....Yes of course I will I said ;);)

    I had a trolley full of different comparison shops, which I was going to use the APG's on but decided to put it all back and stick with the ipad.
    So I'm retiring now from the APG glitch ;) I never did get any household or dental but I'm more than happy with the poos, deos, wine, chocs, TK and cokes.
    :T:T:T:T:T
    My husband says he will leave me if I don't stop shopping......... God I will miss that man.
