Fave glitch of 2012 has to be the Sada super mega uber duper mess up with the cereals and cleaning products. Still shed loads of cereals all over the house. Eeeeek. Would not have done it had it not been for Melgirl who mentioned it to me and if you guys had not contributed on this posh glam thread. So thank you all he says whilst eating yet another cereal bar

I'm giving up on the Glamour magazine hunt. I must have flicked through about 500 magazines now and now a £15 or a £100 in sight.

So what is everyone using the Sada apg vouchers from the Vinnies on? Just normal shopping or is there something else going on at the moment?

Is it just me or are the sales pants this year? All the Boots stores near me are still more or less fully loaded and the fragrance sets are not shifting either. Levis store didn't even have a sale on? And most other posh clothes shops only had 10 to 30% off. !!!!!!!

I used my remaining apg's on my normal Christmas shop. They paid for my turkey, all the veg, dessert and general Christmas food :j

And yes, the sales are crap this year :mad:

Oooh, Love to Shop vouchers. That reminds me of another favourite - Mission Control and late night tipping and thumbs upping and trying to work out the Mission Control names of the MSE peeps. And some well dodgy but very funny hints and tips

Oh yes, that was a fab one! I used my vouchers to get gazebos for me and my parents, and a proper garden parasol for my garden

Not that any of us had much chance to use them this year

Just argued with 3 SAs in sada. I spent over £40 and tried to use a £5 coupon with 2 APGs for £19.40 and £15.34. They said I wasn't allowed to use all 3. I insisted there is nothing in the T&C to say that but in the end I paid £20 and didn't use my £19.40 voucher just read the T&C incase they have changed something recently but it even says that you can use a£5 in conjunction with APGs (plural). Stupid jobsworths :mad:

I'm sat here thinking how much the elite have grown together it started with tesco dtd and support but we have now added competitions,quiz,coupons,friendships and meet ups. We should thank T's because what started with an error on their behalf has become a lifeline for most.

Should have gone to Sada on Xmas Eve when they were dropping the turkey prices by 50% at about lunch time and then by 80% at about 4pm. Mind you, you would have had to prep the bird and all that, so maybe not such a good idea.

But well done you. I still have 3 apg's lying around. No idea what to use them on save milk and bread as we are fully loaded with cereals and chocolates and stuff.

And I think the one glitch that deserves a mention of its own was the WHSmiths glitch.The one where you got a £15 GC for £10 everytime you bought a card.I've got enough greetings cards for years:beer:And bought DS enough stationary for years with the GC's

squigs

I've just remembered another great glitch.:D

The T. Finest pork steaks, where the A. comparison was really low for PP

I think they ended up costing between £1 and £1-50:T

That is so true, we evolved from the old DTD glitch and needed a "home" when it finished:)
