  • Well what a rubbish weekend, yesterday out for dinner with family, came home with 2 laptops and a DS lite, you'd be pleased wouldn't you, unless that is you were invited round for dinner so you could repair faulty things :mad: oh and to top it, 1 bottle of wine on table between 4, whilst I'm looking at problems another 2 bottles appeared and I got a coffee. :mad::mad:

    Not happy, and then to top it just as I'm about to serve a roast tonight, ex-neighbour turned up from 4 years ago, his dd brought a galaxy tab and can't use it for work java won't work, so dinner was delayed for 90 minutes before reheating, then to top it iPod touch sold on fleabay for £70 instead of £100.

    Sometimes I wish I didn't help people, and the best of it is do I get anything back no nothing.

    Why do I bother.

    Hugs (()) but its not as bad as my friend, she was working in a shoe shop and a regular customer invited her to a charity event she was hosting.

    Friend said she would go to offer support, said lady opened door invited her in and handed her a tray of drinks to give out.

    Turns out she was invited all along to be a waitress and she thought she was invited as a guest. :eek:

    Sharp exit just doesn't cut it. :o
    Budgie xxx and I do hope Chris Malloney get through to the live X Factor shows as the wild card.
    Cherish the ones you love and travel back on the road that brings you home :)

  • My carefully selected OEP shop is all ready to go and can I find the bloody car keys? Can I heck! Aaargh. Think DD must have put them somewhere because I can't find them anywhere. They're not even in the tumble dryer which is where I usually find anything I'm looking for :rotfl:
    Cba looking for them anymore, so guess it'll be an early morning trip to A's instead.

    only the syrup sponge compare in the pudding offer unfortunately, so the bourbons would be the best trigger



    it rounds them up/down so 61/62p would be the trigger price for all those that compare

    I'm pretty sure this is misinformation :p

    It only rounds up/down if the cost of 2 triggers is not divisible by 3

    eg

    if a 3f2 trigger was 92p each in S then 3 would cost £1.84, average price of 61.33p. This would mean comparison prices would show 2 products comparing at 61p and 1 comparing at 62p (61+61+62=184p which is the cost of 2 triggers)

    if a 3f2 trigger was 93p each in S then 3 would cost £1.86, average price of 62p. This would mean all items compare at 62p (62+62+62=186 which is the cost of 2 triggers)

    I'd need to see the colour coded results to decipher what is happening

    All this fun has passed me by until today. I read about the glitch just as I went on holiday so have been itching to try this out after enjoying the Tesco PC days.

    I managed a successful shop today after reading quite a few posts but am still a little confused about the magic numbers. I'm sure everyone is fed up of questions but....

    I bought :

    1 x [trigger] A.R.P.
    1 x Weetabix 72
    4 x Weetabix 48
    plus
    6 x very cheap filler items

    (yes - it resulted in losing £1 odd due to the cap)

    As I understood I need to have 3 glitchy items [or 6] (including the trigger), and over 8 [eligible] items total (for APG rules).

    Are there any other rules?

    e.g. Do I need to have 9 or 12 (or any other) number of items in total?

    How do multiples of the same product affect the numbers?

    Are the filler items important - ie the N/A status of them, or is it just that they are cheap. Say I add Heinz Beanz (that is the same price at the other supermarket) instead of a 10p choccy - any problems?

    TIA & apologies if this is the 416th time of similar questions.

    Thanks for the #tweet.

    if its 3 for 2 you need it in 3,6,9 including the trigger.
    if its buy 1 get 1 free you need it in evens. so 1 trigger and 3,5,7 or 2 trigger items and 4,6,8 etc.
