I know the Puppy Dog Glitch will drive you mad. I am here trying to do the vouchers maths about how many I will get and how many vouchers I will have.

Don't mention the word virus to me. :mad: DD3s laptop picked up a rather nasty one even though running McAfee. A pop up from the Metropolitan police turning her webcam onto her telling her that her computer had been blocked and asking her to pay a fine otherwise she would be arrested in 72 hrs because she had been breaching copyright and apparently looking at sites that will rename unmentioned. Poor thing burst into tears and it took me nearly all night to get rid of it. :mad::mad::mad:

God that's awful. What a nightmare :eek::eek::eek: hope everything got sorted ok and your DD is ok

I love you guys

just back home. First T's got nutrigrain, Andrex and Kleenex wipes with the fb voucher. Onto A's and it had been cleaned out of everything on my list :eek: used an apg on an ordinary shop and managed to get a reloaded. Next T's used my andrex voucher and got more nutigrain.

Popped into superdrug and also got hair dye on b1g2f which is great as all this glitching and couponing is turning my hair prematurely grey :rotfl:

going to an express soon in search of nutrigrain and if OH falls asleep I might manage another andrex run

Morning all!



An interesting point was made about people using the coupons on the wrong items - didn't we mention this when the T pizza vouchers scanned on the wrong pizzas? Of course it's up to the individual how far they want to push it but as far as I'm concerned I wouldn't use a manufacturer's voucher for the wrong thing but shop's own vouchers ie pizza, lenor, Andrex are programmed by the store themselves. If they scan incorrectly then the mistake is with the store and they are then saying they will accept them on different items because that's how they've been programmed.

Surely that comes under what we call a glitch? Let's face it, A$da's APG was up the spout for weeks and many of us took advantage knowing it was incorrect...isn't that the point of a glitch and aren't we here to make the most of it?

It was me who posted about this earlier this morning....

I agree in the sense that the stores should program the tills etc properly so that this doesnt happen....but I dont agree with taking it to extreme levels...bending the rules is one thing, breaking them another.

My point was that people are being trouted over the use of mocs (not just these ones, but any mocs)...why make things harder for us, by buying the wrong product, or even no product at all?

Taking advantage of a glitch is one thing...but we're all aware that ts could pull all mocs if they wanted to if they believed they were being misused.

A's tills are programmed to accept any moc...even if you didnt buy the product....it relies on the SA to verify that the product was purchased. But we're not all going to be running in there with our £2 loreal mocs to buy a tub of icecream are we? So why abuse the system at T?

Comparing this to the As glitch - imo, the glitch was great, and yes I joined in....there were thousands of us nationwide doing it, and As were aware -they could have pulled the plug on APG, but they didnt - but they have tightened their T&Cs about it (maybe temporary, but who knows!)....but if other glitches with APG came along, they may well decide to scrap it.

Ts have already changed their moc policy a few times to combat 'misuse'....so how long before they stop altogether?
I just think in light of how many troutings over mocs there have been, and with Uncle Phil talking of weaning people of mocs, it wouldnt be too difficult for Ts to pull the plug on mocs. I for one would be very disappointed if this happened as I use a lot of mocs for a lot of my shopping!

Its only my opinion, and I'm not judging anyone for bending or even breaking the rules - but I dont think its right to promote breaking the T&Cs on an open forum. And I hope the people that do misuse this dont complain when trouted or when mocs are pulled altogether

I got the same but with West Yorkshire Police. Nearly browned my pants at first.

But as they say google is my friend. I typed in the message and there were loads of helpful sites.

I downloaded a small program that cleared everything.

Did you get yours sorted properly or I could always give you the link I used.

Had to do a system restore. McAffee found it in safe mode and supposedly dealt with it but we went back to normal it popped back again and then I could not find the original named file. Found the ones that the shortcut in startup was using but it would not let me delete them. If I deleted the short cut out of startup it just kept reproducing. I don't like mucking about with registry etc. Fingers crossed it's fixed. Thanks though.
