Oh my goodness! I don't fancy that kind of hassle!! It seems that some stores are aware and there are no problems and some haven't a clue. All very well but very very embarassing trying to explain things to them when they just think you're on the con!!! I don't know what to do now.... :eek:

Hi, everyone.

Lizziedrippin I had the same problem yesterday with no pins showing only a map. I deleted the app and reinstalled it and was asked for push notifications to your current location.. I clicked yes and the pins appeared. All green and not very close to me but decided to give it a go. I went into coop picked up the maltesers in a very busy shop and decided to find an assistant before attempting to purchase. I explained that I had downloaded a new app and as a reward the maltesers were showing as a free gift...but didn't want to embarrass myself by going to the till when the shop was really busy in case it didn't work. I showed her the I'D page with the bar code and the voucher page showing the free maltesers and she said all we can do is try. She went over to the pay point machine near the tills and tried to scan the bar code on my I'D page that didn't work so I showed her the help page where it says how to process ...tv licence etc. I said does this mean anything to you? She followed the instructions on my phone typed in the I'D below my bar code and voila a free box of maltesers. :jShe asked what app it was and said " might have to download it myself"
It's worth a try the worst they can say is no...


On a separate subject I went into mr shoes yesterday and they had a small reduced shelf on it were some Trevor sorbie curl mask reviver tubes..purplish in colour ...reduced to £1. I got one and went to the adv points kiosk to print vouchers for other items I was purchasing and there was a voucher for 150 points when buying certain hair products which included Trevor sorbie...so I printed one and got 150 points on a £1 spend:T I went back in today and there was one left, did the same again 150 points on a £1 spend. Only thing is I have straight hair:rotfl:
Little sister has curly hair so I'm sure she can make use of it.


Enjoy the rest of your day

Morgy, this is exactly what they suggested. They said once on school property, to leave it up to the school to get him out. They also suggested I don't leave it so late in case this happens as that raises my stress levels. Hmm, try waking him up earlier -that will go down well!

Do you have any voluntary groups near you that could offer the counselling sooner but for a fee? I know we have some in this area where counsellors are in training and they offer supervised sessions at reduced fees.

All counsellors have to go through a lengthy training period before they can set up on their own so lots of them do voluntary work at these kinds of places. It could be a good way of getting counselling quicker?

Thank you for the M&S natural extract link the other night. I've been and collected my 6 hand creams from store this morning for the bargain price of £3.20.:j

In the Midlands we have a place called the What centre. Is there somewhere like that nearby?

Also correct me if I'm wrong but I thinki it would have printed the APG without having to put your email/postal address in if it had already been used:)

yes you are right.

Yes! It is showing the malteasers under my offers but no coloured pins are showing on my map! Do I just go into a coop food store and show them the my offers page and hope they know what to do? I'm a total newbie where all this is concerned so please bear with!!!

Yes that's exactly what you do

Spirallingdown,
I was not a bit surprised as this is typical of a boxer with separation issues.
He is probably a sweetie when you are around but a monster when left alone.
I used to breed boxers years ago and did a bit of rescue, he needs to be rehomed to someone with no other pets and lots of time to fuss him, probably with him sleeping close to them !!!!
Not at all your fault as this dog has issues, a slightly older couple would be ideal, if you were near my elderly neighbours would have probably had him but they have vowed not to do any more as they are getting on.
I came home once and my lovely boxer had eaten through the plaster in the hall and ripped my new carpet in half....... I ha d only been gone an hour:(

I know this sounds bad but I'm glad someone else has gone through this
The part highlighted describes him to a T! He cries when I go out even the lurcher tries to reassure him that everything's ok and spends time licking him and even gets into the bed beside him so he feels safe but it doesn't help and now she's starting to cry too
This is him at the moment, he's only just moved to this position because he got too warm lying right beside me with his head on my knee



I wish I had someone like your neighbours near me to have him, most people I talk to say it's not normal and that no one will have him it's so upsetting because he's a good dog in many ways and his problems would be easily sorted with the right owner but I'm not that and I want the best for him, he deserves it.

started this thread so people can discuss any good offers and issues.

As I said give them a call if there are any problems. I installed this app a few years ago, long before Martin started promoting it.

Yes so did I.

The problem is the shop assistants don't know how to do it. I wrote all the instructions down for them to read as it was holding up the queue but it wouldn't if they knew how to do it. These instructions are all on the phone too but my phone always plays up when out of wifi so that's why I wrote it out.

To be fair I had to write quite a bit down so not that straightforward. Obviously the manager doesn't t show all the various workers how to do it. I don't think you need to use a certain coop I just got to any it's only if you want to take advantage of a kitkat or something that you look for green dots. I don't bother with that though.
