    Asda just said this
    Just been told this by ASDA That you have to spend £40 and

    In order for your shopping to be eligible for the Asda Price Guarantee, you need to have purchased at least 8 different items, of which at least 1 must be comparable to the above competitors. If the total cost of the comparable items in your shopping isn't 10% cheaper than the above competitors, we'll give you the difference.

    Do you mean how did the poster get an apg? only the bottom bit of your quote needs to be fulfilled to get an apg. The £40 or more applies to get a £5 off your next £40 shop. I hope I'm right there x
    :D Coupons = the only money we can legally print for ourselves:D

    :j A coupon for a free item that is price glitched in Mr T's to be cheaper than Sada for an apg = HEAVEN :j

    :money: total = £47.48 cc = 413 selling stuff = £23.00 Floor pennies = £5.79

    Yes me too, and nearly everytime I use them I get trouted!!! I have got to the point now where I target the younger sa cos they don't seem to care :D Always though they have to look back on the till receipt to see how much to key in. It's got to the point now where I automatically say the price when I give them the moc! So you are not alone on this one. Never used them in co-op cos I don't have one near me so can't help you with that one. I think I have read on here that people have used them in there though. HTH

    I now always make sure that the reloaded is the first thing to go through so that the price is easily seen at the top of the receipt coming out of the printer:)
    Awaiting a new sig
