I was in a store today and the lady checked 1 of my 3 transactions and she did it for me. no hassle.. but she did say that last week someone was being watched for a couple of weeks and they watched them picking up recipets and then making vouchers tally with the recipet. I think this is happened at the same time and they watching out for it.

Probably a wombler, as I don't think you could 'make' the voucher match the receipt. If staff are worried about the validity of the voucher they only have to put the receipt details in on the apg site and verify it for themselves. Seems like A staff have been taking lessons from T staff on how to make things up as they go along.

I have done my first APG shop today (nearest supermarkets other than Morrison s over 30m round trip away so needs to be worth it). So Asda virgin so's to speak. I have been studying the thread for two days - it moves so fast! Huge thank you to everyone for your posts and to Henlan for the lists (hope you are feeling better soon) I think I have an NVQ in APGs!

So did a choccy and toothpaste (T) shop and nivea (S) shop. Concentrating on getting it right and using other posted lists as guide but now realise I have 2 APG's which I may get trouted about- he ho! (£18.51 and £21.14) so maybe I am still working towards mastering this after all .

Peanuts didn't work - not sure why - will post my choccy just in case it helps anyone.

Re the cheese - I saw a post re one cheese (ie cheddar not the pink one) but couldn't see other detail (someone mentioned dairylea?) not sure which supermarket compare with.

Here is choccy ......

Exactly! Whilst the 'pretend' manager was on the phone to head office, I did show supervisor the Asda app on my phone, and entered the receipt details and hey presto, there is the genuine voucher for the correct amount.
Have to say, am disappointed that A's staff dont seem very aware of their own APG system.

one thing i learnt about hollywood films is that they don't stick to what the author created and you have to suspend belief for a while .

It's a pity that so many JR (never heard of him until today) fans will judge the film before watching it but it's easily done as when we read we build up a mental picture in our mind of events, what characters look like etc .

edited to add ; wiki stuff ..
Reacher knows how to drive and enjoys cars, as in Tripwire, Running Blind, Bad Luck and Trouble and One Shot. He has never possessed a driver's license.

I really like the Jack Reacher books, and am reading A Wanted Man now. I hope they don't go for a pretty boy for the part.

I won't watch the Chronicles of Narnia films as I adored the books as a child and can't bear to watch the characters and storylines destroyed, lol.
