I think you are 1 glitchy item short (you need 6 or 9, not 8)0 -
Yes, i'm less than impressed with them at the mo.
The SA used the till to print off a list of my shop, and tried to pocket it so she could replicate it herself.
Which wouldn't have been a big problem except she was being super rude & trouty to me at the time, and then lied and denied that she had printed the list. Then another customer had the cheek to tell me I was being 'abrupt' to the SA.
I would have said just two words to him, and the second one would have been off.
The stories I am hearing of SA's are totally shocking.

Went with my daughter tonight for two shops both with £10.50 APG's (Our last as we will have now hit the £100 APG limit for the month for our address, BTW does anyone know if it is per calendar month or per 31 days?).
I went through fine, but daughter got trouted!
Assistant was fine still she gave over her APG, then looked daughter in the eye and said, "Are you doing a targeted shop like they do at Tesco's?" (Why Tesco's when I can assure the cashier in question that most people's targeted shops feature Asda at the moment!!!).
Daughter puts innocent face on saying,"A what?".
Cashier starts ringing for supervisor, who comes over, looks at APG and says, "yes, put it through it's under £15", and walks off.
Cashier gets up and chases supervisor and remonstrates angrily with her, supervisor says something to cashier and she comes back and looks daggers at my daughter, puts APG through, scribbles all over receipt and says 42p.
Daughter pays, gets receipt and walks off trying soooo hard not to laugh at cashiers attitude!!!!"Sealed Pot challenge" member No. 138

Think you needed one more item on there for them all to glitch...those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

Apologies as this may be a little long, I've had to catch up on 30 odd pages! :eek:
Thanks again everyone for your kind words, it really did help and made me smile :A
And tiger - hope you manage to stop easily when the time is right for you. And hope you start getting the support you need.
I get exhausted just looking after my nieces for the day, let alone forever! And judging how you were before your pregnancy I'm betting your still zooming around like superwoman!
Madmuppet - thank you Me and mum are off our for a spot of lunch tomorrow
Jamsponge, glad you are feeling so pain free! Hope you manage to get something sorted for long term

Wool27 - words from me just can't match up but :T:T:T
Mhoc - I hope your son is safe and well
3010 - I understand your frustration! Roll on Monday - well for you, not for me as I don't want to be at work again!
Budgie, yes I am thank you, hope all is ok with you
I went to my non-smoking appointment today to get more Champix and have my CO levels measured.
I explained to the nurse all that had gone on, and on my progress report she still put me down as a non smoker as she said as you guys all did, it was understandable and just a blip!
Best of all, last week my CO was 29..... today it was just 6 :j
So I've had no cigarettes today and am feeling more positive, I haven't even had a single craving, so maybe that witchface did me a favour, as smoking yesterday made me feel so crappy that there's no point craving something like that
OOh and thank you Clairebear :T:T
and double Oohh - welcome back Lovingtescoforever! :j Now can you tell all and post some pics please!Hope you had a super fantastic time!
