  • Hi Henlans.

    My initial reaction to your posts was pretty much the same as everyone else on this thread, i.e this guy's a greedy nutter who's gonna bring down the apg system single handed.

    However, when you look at your reasoning, it is not flawed at all and seems to make perfect sense.
    1. The system is in place so that Asda get all our cash, not Tesco or any other supermarket.
    2. Why fanny around with vouchers under £10 which means you have to buy loads of sp items that you don't want or need? Better off buying more items each time which cover the 8 item limit.
    3. I had a ball during DTD last year and have absolutely no doubt whatsoever that the apg system will be withdrawn/severely restricted very, very soon, regardless of who does what. We should all therefore batter the living daylights out of it asap.
    4. Basically, what I am saying is that I am now a member of the Henlans fan club. From tomorrow I am going to go from 5 x £10ish vouchers that I use twice a day to 3 x £20 ones. This'll make life easier and mean that I have to buy no sp products.
    Those of you who had so much fun with DTD 18 months ago will realise that the apg will be pulled or severely restricted very soon and we should all take the m ick as much as we can as soon as we possibly can.

    Why do you buy 'loads' of sp items?

    I tend to buy 1 sp conditioner 2 expensive shampoos and then 5 other items that don't have to match, so i just buy the cheapest items in store or stuff I actually want

    You only need 1 item to match not 8!!
  • Thanks for your replys - how could I have gone so wrong when I was hours trying to work it all out ! Just looked at my lists and I had them written out seperate T and S . Then in the excitement ran into A and threw everything into the basket I could remember.:eek:
    Dont mind taking coke and rice back but ive printed off the voucher now so is it too late for shop one to return coke ?

    shop 2 even worse
    I did the same shop twice but with the cheese dlea and 3 x mature chedders aswell as shampoo and coke . Oh God what a mess.
    Would I be best taking the shampoo back instead then would be coke and cheese voucher . What happens if you return part of the items then put in the receipt to compare prices ?

    I mucked a previous one up by getting the cow & gate juice instead of the Heinz one and almost done the same tonight with the boxes of baby cereals, I wouldn't have lived that one down with my cousin as she's trying to support herself and her DS on tax credits alone while going to college. I took the hit on the first one but glad this one worked for her. Had more on my list but they didn't have them. They are on a post on the last thread though. HTH


    My daugher is having a baby in jan so this the food i got for 4 months and 7 months will help her not to pay for the food. thanks for the info.
  • Congratulations Tiger, she is just perfect :)

    Hope you're both doing well xx

    That honestly wasn't the intention. I was interested in other views; but it clearly wasn't a good idea to ask. Sorry everyone! :(

    Don't take it to heart, I'm sure once people realise you were just worried about the impact such a high APG would have on the scheme, they'll calm down a little. I hope you don't feel bad about asking.

    Hi everyone as usual have not read the last xx number of pages been out :beer: but what I have just noticed is in my supermarket when you have an item in your basket and it says 3 for 2 for instance if you click on that it gives you everything else in the offer.
    No doubt the elite know that but I have just found it and it has got to make it easier to see what the cheapest or most usable cheap item is in that offer.
    I have been looking for herbal essence anti breakage shampoo but can not find it on tesco, asda or sainsburys anyone know if it is now called hello hydration or am I just missing it.
