    Patty granted some of us like to stay under the radar for glitching etc but putting up with bad customer service isn't something we must do I feel, having said that is wimpy me gonna do anything about it when trouted unfairly and with no grounds to be questioned...probs not, but you have guts I know it Ms.Oh La La LaBelle and I think you should get an apology...Very similar situation with her too...but over a coupon, legit one too from their own mag...supervisor made her wait just as u were made to (trouty tit on the till asked her, is couponing a habit then, do you fill our tills with your coupons? :mad: cheeky git, he said this to her, I can't believe it, this is whilst the supervisor went to check a 60p coupon with the manager, yes 60p:eek: my sis did lean in and tell him I have 500 more of these and I'm coming through your till to use them all, yep I nearly wet meself laughin:rotfl:) she came back handed the coupon to the tit on the till and said 'well he says it's ok, I'm still unsure but put it through just this time'

    My sister called out to the supervisor and said 'Sorry what was that'
    she answered 'I didn't say anything'
    sis - 'really?' I'm sure I heard something?'
    supervisor - 'No, I really didn't'
    sis- 'I could swear I heard you say, I'm so very sorry to keep you waiting. did you not say that? Oh that's right that's just the manners I have been brought up with, which were telling me you were supposed to say so'
    supervisor - 'I'm sorry to have kept you waiting'
    sis- you are? that's wonderful, are you also sorry for calling your manager wrong? I understand you have done me some kind of favour by putting a 60p coupon through for me which my sis(me) has cut out of your own magazine. My sis (me) has worked as a till supervisor at a supermarket before and never undermined her managers decision. I see you do, whilst making Sada's customers feel uncomfortable. I hope you understand whilst in this green uniform, you represent this company, I don't believe sada pay you for the privilege of being rude to customers, I am about to go report you, I'm heading to cs now, would you like to accompany me'
    (she started walking and to my surprise the supervisor followed her...I am now left at the till, as my transaction is the next one this tit is putting through and I have 3 apg's to use, here I am thinking, ohh great! now hes gonna trouble me over apg's)
    supervisor- walks to the cs desk with her, all the while apologising, when they get there, my sis calmly told her, I'll let it go this time, next time, I'll make a form a complaint and they walk their separate ways.)

    Now I was all prepared for him to say no you can't use that kleenex coupon and not all your 3 apg's...tit called same supervisor over asking about coupons and apg's ...she simply murmered to him 'put them all through, just do it' I was :rotfl: whilst I grabbed my trolley and walked towards my sis who was cool as a cucumber, she knows full well how to deal with trouts:rotfl:


    I was stood next to her as all this happened at the till, and was laughing so much quietly to myself...just kept a straight face...now had this been me in her place, no such thing would have gone down...I wouldn't have said anything probably:( but her, she just get's right in there:rotfl:
    One badass your sis :eek:

    Hi Flabs.

    It is much easier just to give in and accept that these three despicable characters will continue to call you every variation of FF that they can think of. Look at me, I have a perfectly good username and all I get is DJ, Dumpy, Grumpy etc!! How hard is it really to type FF or SFSB??

    Anyway, at least we are both still young and extremely attractive, traits I doubt any of the aforementioned trio can claim!!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: and bitter and twisted ;)

    Hi

    I think there may be some PP scope with the new Breakfast "meal deals for £5" at T, particularly the berry cereal one

    http://www.tesco.com/groceries/SpecialOffers/SpecialOfferDetail/Default.aspx?promoId=A30276646

    the 2 x cereals are I think £2.99 at T and £2 at A, so assuming they compare that is £1.98 back before taking into account the other items.

    The egg and sausage one also has potential as 6 medium free range eggs are £1 at A and the sausages are 39p cheaper. This isn't such a bad deal in its own right

    http://www.tesco.com/groceries/SpecialOffers/SpecialOfferDetail/Default.aspx?promoId=A30276646

    Not sure about the brioche/coffee one

    http://www.tesco.com/groceries/SpecialOffers/SpecialOfferDetail/Default.aspx?promoId=A30276605


    Good spot and this is one of the items:D
