I count myself incredibly lucky in that I don't need to make a paper profit out of it. I work damn hard for the money I earn, and a comibination of that and finding you lot has meant that for another month, my overdraft remains untouched there was a time when I would not have enough money in the bank the day before payday to catch the bus to work so had to walk 9 miles. Those days, fortunately are behind me :j

I don't have a dishwasher so have no use for that stuff. My kitchen roll mountain is on a par with my coke stash. I have tons of washing stuff and softener, don't need to buy shampoo for a long time and the rest is just immaterial

But, so much more importantly, I am healthy, as are my family and friends. I have a good family and some very good friends.

Now if only I could get my parents into this properly.....:rotfl:

Sorry had to ask before i went "kitchen roll mountain"? Have i missed this? Thrown my mountain of paperwork/shopping lists in air & cant find it!!!

Thanks in advance

Do you remember Mr T's?
Well last time they had the 25% off wine if you bought 6 bottles there was a glitch. It took the 25% off the full price on the buy 3 for £10/ £12 wines. I wonder if that is happening again.

Dear Diary What I day I've had!

Today I have had the worst trouting ever an uber trouting.

I will try and keep the story short.

Taken to one side by the duty manager as sada [EMAIL="Ch@rlt0n"]Ch@rlt0n[/EMAIL].

Then manouvered into the back room , confronted by the securirty lady who said that my legitimate voucher (£18.xx ) was fraudulent.

They had photos of me from this morning and yesterday.

I said its not fraudulent and advised them to check on their own site or call customer services. They refused to do either and called the Police!!!!!!!

I called sada customer services from the Asda back room but all but the junior sv had left , sada customer services agent was horrified.
He tried to call the store but could not get an answer. The Police arrived and asked me what it was all about. I told them to ask the Sada manager as I have not done anything wrong.

So the Policeman disappeared along with the manager , security person and head SV. Came back 5 mins later and said sorry!

I had told the duty manager he would have to say sorry and give me a £5 voucher at the beginning of my kidnapping.

The Policeman was quite wry , he summed up by saying to the duty manager. So you have learned something today about your system and the he agreed ( basically saying to him ' Do you know what you are doing ?').

Duty manager was quite humble once he found the voucher and receipt were/are valid. He gave me my shopping with no charge ( would have got it for a few pounds anyway ) and a £5 voucher ( I know I could have got more , but I didnt want more , just the regular £5 ). Said I am welcome in the shop.

The chap from customer services rang an hour later and said the manager and security person will be spoken too.

Manager was ok really , it was the security person that was sure my voucher was a fake. She was convinced it was a fake as it was an iphone generated voucher. They had only seen pc generated ones before. ( the iphone ones are slightly different than the pc ones , the sada logo is smaller ).( Not a nice person the security lady , thinks she's some sort of dectective)

What convinced the manager was that he went out side and used his own iphone , input the details and up popped the voucher just as I told him it would. If he had done this in the first place it would have saved a lot of kerfuffle or if he would have spoken to his own customer services.

Strangley I got two new receipts with glitchy items on from the free shops , I will put them in soon and see if they work.

I doubt if this will happen to anyone else , but thought I should share as this would be traumatic for the fient hearted.

I am fairly thick skinned and have had lots of debates with toscos sv about DTD on misprices , jtd and dtd , so I understand its all a game. But this was different!

Definatley not under the radar now.

Big thanks to all the contributors on here.

So anyone in the [EMAIL="Ch@rlt0n"]Ch@rlt0n[/EMAIL] area should be able to use as many and as big vouchers as they like for a while!

:rotfl::rotfl:
My OH always starts his crazy ways with... "I have a brilliant idea..." whilst jumping around like an excitable puppy! We had this the other day when he came up with rather than boiling the potatoes in a pan he could do them in the microwave!!
