    Feeling confident after my first shops yesterday - done 3 today and made mistakes on 2 - pooh!

    Despite writing my list re coke - I forgot the odd/even rule so glad was I to find the product (after others re clean shop missing). Tosh.

    Tried the cheese shop for S - no Lake District cheese but used Pilgram's it hasn't worked..... so watch out.

    I knew this but forgot to write do not buy the lemon dishwashing cleaner on final list and I ....brought the lemon one - disaster pay for this and 2 others as no longer have comparable in group of 3. But I have learnt - I just need to remember - must try harder...! :o

    It was tricky finding 750ml bleach as most bottles had extra 33% free so still £1 but now 1 litre - unsure if they would still work if 'free' or change in ml size would mean not compare. Anyone know the answer to this?

    Re choccy and discussion - msm prices went to 2 for £2 yesterday - my shop went through ok yesterday. I haven't done choccy shop today but sounds like still working against previous price - fingers crossed long may this continue...!

    I think the tweak might be a higher number of items than the current 8, or a cap on each apg of say £10, or a apg of a max of 10% of your total shop value.
    Even with a cap the glitch wouldn't stop. People would just buy smaller shops. I wonder whether you'll be able to submit an apg voucher against a new shop if the receipt submitted has already had an apg voucher in payment against it, thus allowing you to gain an apg but once used cannot then generate another. It's all guesswork like everyone else.
  • Budgie - sorry about your dad's op, hope it gets rescheduled ASAP, but they would not have postponed without good reason.

    I for one have not participated in this current glitch, mainly because I have to cycle to A's and I simply do not have the room to store a lot of stuff. Currently building up a stash of Five Beanz, also have a lot of Febreze spray and Lenor, there is a limit to what I can store.

    That said, if it had been free and from T's I may well have had a go.

    So the trigger for the Doritos is the Liptons!:):)

    I didn't try that combination today.:(

    :beer: for a new find!

    Looks like it. Good to know. I was going to try the Doritos and see if they worked with Rockys, but Liptons will do just as well.

    My mind is not as great as yours.:)


    You keep beating me in the quiz!!:mad::mad::mad::mad:
