    Went to B3dm1ns3r store today. It was swarming with managers and their staff with handheld scanners on the shop floor. I overheard one say 3 for 2 offers and they were bagging up a sample of certain items, one of which I noticed was Rocky bars (trigger for batteries). It could just be updating SELs but I felt as though they knew something, plus there were four security staff there and I've never seen more than two before. Too anxious to use an apg voucher so went to another store, apg was initially refused as they said the amount was inconsistent as a % of the total spend. Checked with manager over the phone and who said they'd just received an email to say their system had been hacked into and a virus had caused this problem, but reluctantly took my apg voucher.

    Funny thing happened to me at Longwell. I was doing the first of a couple of shops and bumped into an Sa that dosen't like what were doing!!. She said "so you're still at it then!" I just carried on walking. When I got to ss, I was about to go to till and a security guard appeared:eek: He said that I couldn't use vouchers for my shop as I'd used more than 10 and knew what I was up to!!!, This was with trout Sa in the background. I just replied "ok" and went up to till and started scanning, Guard said "did you hear what I said", I replied "yes, I haven't got any vouchers, I have a gift card!" Off he went with his tail between his legs and the Sa red with fuming:rotfl: To really pi55 them off, I done another 8 shops:rotfl:

    2+1+1+ rice = 5? you need 6
    If I put a 3 for 2 offer AND a 2 for 1 offer on same shopping list do I need two trigger items?

    Would it make a difference if one of the offers was at one supermarket and the other from another supermarket?

    yes you need to keep shops seperate

    Guys, I thought this thread was a chat thread

    So can everyone learn to think before they put to print their insults.

    Full of hidden swear words, aren't you a naughty girl.


    I think you need to chill btw

  • Before I go I will leave you with this thought for the day, seems a good way to start the week.

    " Instead of putting others down, try improving yourself instead. The only person you have a right to compete with is you. In the meantime, treat others how you'd like to be treated. One trait that some of the best communicators share is empathy. A couple of kind words can not only make a person's day, but earn you a friend and supporter for life. For the rest of the week, whenever you see someone you want to judge negatively, pay them a compliment instead. See what happens."
    I think this is a great philosophy..I sometimes find myself wanting to "have a go" about something and then realise its only me that is going to be negatively affected by it so I either say nothing ( most of the time:o) or try to say what I want in a more positive way..I refuse to let others impact on how I feel :D

    Forgot to mention. The Asda butchers choice smoked gammon joint, 1.6kg is still going through at £3. Just make sure you don't pick up the 1.4kg with the £7 sticker on it.:D
