I live closer to cribbs now
I can't believe someone would spend £500 and bin the reciept!! The only time I've ever spent that much was on my phone and the reciept lives in my purse in case it ever has to go back
Then it will be framed as proof of what I've achieved since discovering you lot :T
Where did you live when you were there?0 -

I'm just glad I gave my mum two lists of stuff to get, I had to plan it down to the last item and put a basket in her trolley just because she always puts stuff in that she hadn't planned to. :eek:
She had put the above cream in one of her shops because she'd read the Nivea visage bit But not the q10 that I'd put on there just as well I check things before she paid and checked with my 'master' list to see if it would but it wasn't on there.
I too have loads of lists in my bag and take out the appropriate one for that shop, which sometimes does mean I'm rummaging through it when she changes her mind!!!! :mad: talk about raising your profile!SPC #329 £471/£500 banked

Well after one week of completely bonkers glitch shopping, I'm done in.
Relieved to be back at work tomorrow for a rest :T
Out of all my shops I think I flumped 4 of them, 3 were cheese shops. One was Tres shop they had reduced them yesterday to £2.00, but somehow they just didn't work, even though id bought them before, a member of staff stopped me after seeing my 5 x tres in my trolley and said are you buying these because they are cheap in tescos? I said they are down to £2.00 here you know! She said a lady last week had a trolley stacked full the other day!
Oh well, all will be used. I've put all my shops into excel, along with the APGs to see what I've spent/earnt. That's what made me stop. I've confused myself so much now, I know I have an amazing stash, but I also know I've spent a bit. Therefore I'm raising the white flag on the present glitches.... But ready to rock n roll for the next ones :rotfl:
And in the middle of it all, a jar from my squeezed full cupboard fell onto my iPad and smashed the screen:eek:, slightly made up by BS refunding my cards nearly covering the excess on my insurance to get it fixed/replaced
Blimey I'm exhausted
I'm converted though. Asda staff are totally fab, although its a 20+ mile round trip, I'll be making the effort more often, for better prices and the friendlier staff :T
Thank you to each and every one of you. Special thanks to those that first found the glitches, first tried them it, and in particular to FC for making things so much clearer for everyone.
I have only been around 6 months or so, but before I joined in I read at least two whole threads before I asked anything or got involved. Not only do you learn so much this way, but you get to know this wonderful, very special group of peeps, who are aptly called ELITE for a reason.DS 17 yearsDD 16 years DS 5 years
