Asda took all of my coupons from the insert in the Tesco Mag for the Kipling Cakes plus another for Finish without batting an eyelid, however needed to get a £4.98 APG authorised. This APG was from a virgin shop so receipt had no deductions. Needless to say queue was building up behind me while receipt and APG was s!!!!inised which took an age and then they tried to keep the old receipt. :eek:
Only shopped in this store 3 times in the past fortnight and this was the most varied shop I had done. Yet DD on the next till had a £10 plus, with the relevant receipt showing a previous APG for £14 not a word said and she was doing a cheese shop with the minimum of items.0 -

No wonder I can't keep up with you all. :eek:
I am going to have to give everyone a big thank you for all the info and help being posted. I'm sorry I just have not got the time to thank you all individually.
I won't be around tomorrow, Mr Tinyshoes has arranged a BBQ and invited more people than I realised and 40 people have accepted the invite!! :eek: I know we have a few bottles of wine and packs of Bavaria to use up and lots of whoopsied meat in the freezer some of of it was even free due to the multibuy kicking in at Ts even though reduced. But it will break my heart to see big dents in my stash. I think he is trying to reclaim some of the house I have taken over. And I know the freezers really do need defrosting.
Take care everyone. :A0 -

Allsorts 4 boxes of - changed them for celebrations which were cheaper so gor 5 boxes for same price...
Why don't you spend some time doing your research then you wouldn't have to mess around taking stuff back?
Whose fault is it that you got it wrong? :huh:
I've done about 6 or 7 shops now and had no mistakes.
Edit: if I do mess up, I will just put it down to experience and take it on the chin."I expect to pass through this world but once. Any good, therefore, that I can do or any kindness I can show to any fellow creature, let me do it now. Let me not defer or neglect it for I shall not pass this way again."

Whilst I can see how easy it is to get these glitches wrong, at least accept personal responsibility!!! After all, whose fault do you think it is?0
