  • Hi and thanks for that, I have read on the apg site that you have to wait 48 hours before checking an online delivery, shop ones are only 3 hours.

    I hope it works out for you, I thought I would give it a punt and anyway if something goes wrong at least I will have a good cereal stock. ;) I am hoping for a good apg though.

    Oh and can I just say that after getting Mrs Stinkface's name so wrong when I first popped in, I have been reading pam's posts and I thought her name was PeskyPam. :o So sorry I think I may need new glasses.

    Please don't take offence if I substitute your username.

    But one last question please? If my order is delivered without my trigger pot of ambrosia what are the options?

    Many Thanks

    Ps I forgot to say earlier I hope that Cosmic Dust is ok? I felt very upset when I was lurking and read her post.

    I must admit I uummed and aahhhed about substitutions. I kept changing my mind, and in the end went for 'allow subs' and took a chance. I understood from their t & c's that they have to take your original ordered items for the apg, whether they sub it for something else or not. I think that you may have a problem if they don't have it at all. Is it too late to change the substitution bit for your order coming tomorrow?

    Please don't take my word for it though - I'm still a novice at this! ;)

    Good luck - I hope it goes well for you. :)
    You can't have everything.........where would you put it?

    I thought I was Ok but I'm a bit confused. Unless I've read it wrong, Henlans very helpful list now seem to say that you can only buy Coke plus trigger plus filers - and nothing else. I thought you could combine coke with 2 Nivea and the Nivea trigger - it certainly worked for me this afternoon (and gave me another embarrassingly high APG).

    It is quite confusing all this talk of Ambrosia
    The Ambrosia tin custard is for the coke glitch
    The Ambrosia pot original or cho - not apple is for the cereal, cleaning, robinsons glitch

    Ah, thanks, so my shop should be ok - fingers crossed! Will post it later.

    You only have 5 hair items, not 6. Needs to be divisible by 3.

    Baptiste does work, I bought 6 earlier today!
  • Good evening everyone. Huge thanks to Nikkilala, Henlans and Fudgecake especially, (sorry if I have missed anyone) for the lists which have been really helpful. I have now managed a 'few' more shops but am up to the dreaded £100 limit, so having read several options to get around this, can I ask what is the general opinion as regards the best method? I am not sure if the system picks up the comparison of the shopping on the day it was done either-can anyone enlighten me please? So if I leave my latest claim until October and the glitch is sorted, might I lose out altogether?

    the 120g pots trigger the Mr W's cereal/cake glitch and the 400g tin triggers the Mr S coke glitch.

    Well thats what I did, but not sure now.............maybe the plastic pots work too. Doubting myself now so best leave the experts to explain.

    Correct!:D

    lots of school[STRIKE]boy[/STRIKE]girl errors being made today:eek:

    always check the trigger for your targeted shop

    Remember the Locarr mantra;)

    3 for 2 = Multiples of 3

    bogof = Multiples of 2

    plus 2 over the 8 never lets you down!!:cool:

    you only have your self to blame if it goes wrong all the info is on this very thread!!;)

    good luck!!:D

    I hope you don't mind me asking :o but I've been looking at msm at all the cleaning products and wondered if everything on 3 for 2 would compare. I was thinking of getting the Pledge wood cleaner and Mr sheen leather wipes or Lord sheraton Leather wipes, but haven't seen these on any lists. I have done a search but not found anything but I seem to remember a while back that someone said the wood floor cleaner didn't work? Has anyone bought these products please ? Thank you all so much :)
