    CS very apologetic but MrsBartolozzi must have gotten the last giftcard as they didn't offer me one! Instead the maggot will be speaking to his staff (I call him a maggot as he was trying to put the blame of everything onto his staff last night instead of standing up and taking responsibility) and retraining them that monitoring customers they way they did with me isn't acceptable.

    So how soon can I go back and spend my next big APG there :D Kidding!

    No didn't offer me a gift card after being touted this morning, never mind thinking of going back to that same store and till operator and wave another couple at her:rotfl:

    This isn't quite right. Ref the coke I bought an even number plus the custard and it compared fine. I didn't miss out on anything as the coke was two for £7, if I'd bought an odd number I'd have paid £4.49 for one pack instead I paid just £2.51 extra, got the extra pack, and got all comparing at the glitch price. I've been buying 4 packs and one tin of custard and some fillers, it works fine. Otherwise you are paying £4.49 in Asda for one odd pack of coke.

    **edit just found my shop. Yes did lose out on APG on the custard, so lost out on about 47p on APG for that BUT as I say, by buying the Coke in multiples of 2 the multisave at Asda saves you spending £4.49 on one instead of £3.50 each (2 for £7). So you save £1 to lose 47p So buying coke in 2's makes more sense.

    Yes an odd number total works - to an extent - but it's not the best deal because one of them will be full price. It's also risky because you don't know which one will be full price - some people did end up paying full price for a coke because they had an odd number total. They also didn't save anything by taking that risk, because they could've had an extra rice pudding or custard for nothing.

    Please can I ask is it just Iams dog food or is it Iams cat food as well?
    Ive looked at various shopping lists but it just seems to be dogs.

    Also is it just 2 and do you have to buy another item to make it work?

    Another quick/silly question before I brave it. Does this work in little A's the ones that were Netto's as T and S don't let you use locals/metros do they?


    No problem using apg's in little asda's. I have one near me and regularly give them an apg.

    Update on the pink stained t-shirt :j

    Stains come out and t-shirt now hanging on the line drying.

    Forgot to say earlier :

    No 4p socks in my T's and no cheap mens stuff all selling at correct price :(

    Are the 4p socks the ones mentioned on the other side this week?

    What menswear was supposed to be cheap? must have missed that.
