    Thank you for all of your kind comments :A

    I really do appreciate them. Hopefully we will have a good outcome, but cancer is very sad and unfortunately it touches so many peoples lives. :(

    I am also watching the news and poor April is still missing, how sad and it is every parents nightmare.

    Lets hope she is found safe and well?

    Budgie, hope everything goes well for your dad and take a bit of time for yourself because as you said cancer touches all those around a suferer and sometimes you just dont realise how much you are affected.

    I think everyone's prayers are with those in Wales.

    The Staff are much nicer?????? I dont think so!!

    I used to do all my shopping in Tesco or waitrose as the stores are always a pleasure to walk around and the staff a better quality than any Asda.

    There are certain Asdas that I hate going into as the staff are beyond a joke, ignorant, unhelpful and often even dirty as in hair uniform etc. One particular Asda is like walking into a supermarket in Beirut its that rough.

    As for cheaper this is not always the case I manage to do most of my shopping by picking items that are on promotion in tesco, sainsbury or waitrose so cheaper or even the same price as Asda this way I always get an APG and my shopping will always then be 10% cheaper than the best price anywhere.

    You get what you pay for and Asdas own brands (chosen by you) and smartprice items to be quite honest are vile. Their fruit and veg are the lowest grade cheapest sourced produce. Try buying a cucumber and keeping it for a week if you can keep it that long without it becoming a soggy mess with fur all over it. Then do the same at Tesco and I will guarantee the cucumber will be almost just as fresh as it was when you bought it, hard and easy to slice and flaour good aswell.

    I lived in the USA for 3 years and Walmarts produce over there is unbelievably bad you would have to see it to believe me. All of it is only fit to put on a compost heap.

    I dont know if you have seen the bananas in Asda most of the time their black and bruised and again within a couple of days are bad (rotten)

    Even some asda employees have also admitted their meat or butchery is not of high quality.

    So yes they may be cheaper but the quality is cheap or very poor.

    If you want fruit and veg or meat you cant beat Tesco, Waitrose, Sainsburys or your local green grocers or family butchers

    am i being thick?

    If you shop at tesc0 and waitrose how do you still get an APG to be 10% cheaper?
    You can't make someone love you. All you can do is
    stalk them & hope they panic & give in

    God created men first, cause you always makes a rough draft before a masterpiece!

  • I have to say that I'm so relieved that I can go to bed tonight and hopefully get some sleep not thinking about shopping lists and whether I'm buying 2 lots of batteries or 5 boxes of cereal or if I'm mixing Waitrose with Tesco!
    Thank you for everyone's help with this. I only went to SADA about twice a week but even that was enough for me. I've completed the coupon days, done the DTD, now the APG....wonder what's next?
    Here's hoping for a decent sleep!! Night all:)

    Would appear that I am getting the above when I input a receipt over 28 days old, one from a few days ago that I haven't used the apg on yet shows glitch totals so looks like I have lost my apg's that were 'on ice' :(:( Oh well, that will teach me :rotfl:

    I get this too when I input an older receipt:mad::mad:
