    I just know I've bought stuff in last month or so...in non targeted shops that have compared at full price when on sp offers. Beer was one example, I also bought lillets on 2 for £4 that compared at full price, some cheese that I can't remember? and I bought loreal kids shampoo last week on offer and it compared at full price too. I got nice APG back on all of these things

    It does happen a lot here and there on some lines. Usually when an offer just comes into effect instore and MSM hasn't updated yet

    Right now seems to be a far more serious system failure at work :D

    Another question...sorry to be a pest....Is it ok to mix and match the Lynx? e.g. 6 of one type and 4 of another etc? Thanks.

    If you do that you will only have 2 different comparable items - as opposed to 5 if you buy all the varieties Scamps did. This means you'll need to buy more fillers to make sure you have the minimum number required :)
    My husband says he will leave me if I don't stop shopping......... God I will miss that man.

    * trout specifically mentioned the word 'fraud' and 'those high valued vouchers where they didn't spend much more than the voucher' and when pushed as to how you could commit fraud she mentioned something being wrong with the APG system and people taking advantage. My first thought was "boo hoo" and my second one was "oops I did it again" :D

    I agree with that but the stuff I was buying, I was buying every time I went shopping. I made a killing on beers, ales and ciders and I did post on here a few times about them, but as I said it prob got swallowed up in the bigger glitch. I have no doubt this has been happening for ages.

    As for the system, I see it like a big version of an access database. The top layers are easy to get to and put fixes on, but fiddle with the lower layers and it will all fall down
  • I am from an area that speaks ulster scots - this language is what we would speak at hame.

    Seriously? The only time I've come across Ulster Scots was someone saying they had to get in a translator for the assembly as someone decided to speak Ulster Scots as others were speaking Gaelic. Bar that I've not come across it.
    Sorry to be a pain, WW, but did you pay £14.76 for that shop and get back a £15 capped voucher? Thanks x

    You're not a pain don't worry. My calcs were slightly out on both shops.

    ^^ This one, I paid £19ish and got an APG of £16.xx capped at £15. Was really stuck for flavours so had to double up a fair bit.
