OH, Logie
take it easy, you must rest as well......we all admire your spirit and are an inspiration to us all.....well done you.

Has anyone reserved one of those three wheeler buggies from the dark side??
I have one reserved but its about 35 miles away and a fiver in tolls so don't think its worth it.....went to my local Argus today and someone has reserved one which runs out tomorrow, if they are not there by 5.25pm I can have it but its a slim chance.

Ive been trying to compile a shopping list for A/T/S and using quidco to my advantage but I have a question.... If for example I buy the dettol spray, you can get 50p cb. T&Cs state "this offer can only be redeemed up to 3 times during the offer period". Does that mean I can buy 3 dettol sprays on one receipt to upload or do i have to buy them in 3 separate transactions (and receipts). I is confused ......

I can't find an answer either but I bought 2 Schweppes 2l lemonade on the same receipt and one has tracked :mad: although the confirmation email says purchase price £0.00 and all other conf. emails have the correct price on.

Surely whether it's done manually by a real person or with some computer thingy that goes straight to A and checks the transaction directly, they can see I bought 2 and qualify for 2 payments?

I'll let you know anyway!

Confused atm...

HERE, HERE.
You're not always right, you got it very wrong last week with paracetamol and ibuprofen, you mixed your caplets and tablets but you wouldn't listen.

Head right where it shouldn't be, but can't be helped sometimes. Frequent - thanks for your witty comments (maybe they aren't, but taken that way anyway and I can laugh at myself).

Wendyak - oooh... a complaint - many thanks for this feedback and I've taken this complaint on board (without any negative connotation intended). You say I got it very wrong. If I did, I wasn't aware of this and I don't remember anyone posting to tell me it was wrong. I am all ears - it's probably that I didn't see the original post, if there was one, as I don't see everything on here and/or my attention not drawn to it, rather than that I wouldn't listen. If I do go wrong (and this is also addressed to 'the world in general') please P.M. me to let me know and I can correct it. Other than that, as I've missed your original complaint, or it didn't dawn on me, please tell me specifically what I mixed up and what the correct combinations would have been.

I was saying Paracetamol tablets but Ibuprofen caplets. (Vs M.) Then M's price increased on both and I then 'advised' neither. Did I make a typo? Or did I then get confused - as every one of us is prone to that on occasion - and write the wrong ones vs other competitors? Not claiming any perfection but just a self-correcting mechanism, to put right if actually dawns on me. Apologies if you tried to tell me before but it didn't get through.
