I was there this afternoon but didn't see any nutters (and shop alone so wasn't my OH), but feel free to say :hello: - all that is in my trolley was IAMS, porridge, a trio of JFs and the usual fillers :rotfl:

Actually, I messed up today and can't work out why. I was about £17 off my monthly limit so it can't have been that....Any ideas?

At closing time? If it was you, well done on getting OH to go with you - mine refuses but has just enquired whether there is any more wine glitching atm - cheek of it eh?



Deff wasn't you i saw then, but hello also - never realised how many of us use that store, esp as it's usually quite well stocked.

Were you trying to go for the Iams v W's? It looks like you only have 5 items incl the porridge (not sure what else you bought though) - I've only done iams with a mix of cleaning and rice pudding before, as I tend to but porridge as Oat So Simple in the cereal glitch.

Speaking of which, came home to find OH tucking into a bowl of glitched bran flakes mixed with our last box of (slightly out of date) Honey Shreddies.

Ah, I see it now - actually, I have 2 porridges too many :rotfl: I was trying to do 3 shops at once, then had a panic and decided just to do 2 so that's where I made the mistake! It's kinda difficult splitting everything and thinking on my feet and making sure I've not duplicated my fillers

Must make sure I do the trolley waltz tomorrow before reaching the checkout....1 2 3, 1 2 3, 1 2 3

I know what you mean. I have started putting a basket in my trolly now too for when I am doing 2 shops at once. That way 1 can go in basket and 1 can go in trolly.:j

Others have mentioned that you only have 5 items - but the important bit is you don't seem to have the Ambrosia Rice trigger? If you had, and still only had 5 (including Rice) two of the other items would still have glitched (from experience ... a couple of times ).

Totally glitched out. Was hoping for a day off today. My printer ink ran out yesterday and did not want to buy one as waiting for one to arrive off Ebay (bought this week with the £5 discount LOL). Thought I would print them of at A but when we got there yesterday the printer was no working.

Was cringing a bit as the boy on the customer service desk called the manager to see if he could fix printer. Same manager that has seen us almost every day for the last few weeks. He was very nice and said do you mind coming back tomorrow. LOL

Of course not Mr Manager

The oats is an alternative to the rice, although would have compared to a higher price. We don't really know what the problem is as the OP has not yet posted the comparison to Waitrose.

Same as the other replies you've had. You only have 5 items.

Also, unless you really wanted them, you only needed to buy one of the porridges as the need to have item

I HAD the rice in my trolley and took it out in favour of the porridge a cupboard full of porridge is actually quite useful. Doh!!!!
