    I think your target amount of £250 is way too low darling- you sound as if you could do the 1k.

    You can do more than £250 in a month, can't you?;)

    However, for me, this is not entirely true.

    Recent events have taught me that when it comes to the Elite, you appreciate people much more when they return and you realise exactly what it is that you have been missing.

    We have been very fortunate recently to welcome back a few people who were forced out by certain plonkers (who we all know about, but shall remain nameless in this post).

    As someone said earlier, good will always win in the end. All we need now is for the people on the MIA list to return.

    Happy New Year..;);)

    I know- I have got one in me box at the moment where somebody returned a game and it is signed at that point. I got about £1.50 on it but I don't think worth the trouting that could arise. What do you think?
    To me its not worth it and to you definately not give it to Dave if he manages a full page before 12 ;)

    Only time I could see them ever going after anyone if it was a dodgy credit/bank card that paid for the original shop and then maybe look at cctv see who bought it or used the apg. But watching mission impossible now so anything is possible but is it probable no


    Never thought of that one - I'll send the kids through with the credit card ones:rotfl::rotfl:Only joking!!!

    Another 'horror' story for you...

    When I first started Primary School - age 5.
    I had gone to the loo which were outside & across the playground, from class.
    On the way back & passing through the cloakroom I decided I was going home.
    Got my hat (which was a strange knitted thing with a tassel on the back & a metal enclosed alice band ???) & set off.
    My school was in Charlwood & we lived in Lowfield Heath - 3 miles away around Gatwick Airport. Busy road.
    Anyway I'm halfway home when a man appeared & said he would walk with me...
    Next thing I can recall is the headmaster stopping in his Rover with my elder sister & taking me back to school.
    My teacher - Miss Crampion shook me :eek::eek: really shook me :mad: & made my sister escort me everywhere after that :o

    omg dosnt even bare thingking about im glad your safe, :j:j

    Good evening everyone:) I've been to co-op, T's & A's today. Lots of nice bread reduced in co-op. I like co-op bread:) T's was rubbish. No whoopsie bargains at all. A's had no whoopsies either, apart from meat. I think I was too late! I used up 4 apgs (3 wombled and 1 of my own) I have found a nice SA who will take very tatty unreadable receipts (with apgs) :rotfl:
    DD & I wombled 4 receipts between us. I had to rummage in the bushes to retrieve one receipt :rotfl: it was worth it. I got an apg for £7.09 as asda wasn't 10% cheaper:j DD got an apg for 78p. The other 2 wombles didn't produce an apg. I am going to start to keep a record of all our wombles. I'm aiming to make £60-£80 a month. It probably won't happen though, unless I visit A's daily:)

    If you womble and haven't got a Ipad or whatever and have to use your home computer/IP address, who's name and postal address do you use?

    I use mine, my sisters and my MIL's but, are they likely to trace the IP addresss and could you get prosecuted for wombling?

    If you get your APG printed instore, they don't ask you for your details, they just input random numbers and letters and use the store postcode
