Squills I try not to comment my opinion too much on the thread but some of your posts are so obviously upsetting many people including me and I am sure many have stopped reading the thread last night and today until the conversation stops. Perhaps you could delete the offensive posts and stop posting in that way. .

Please keep posting the funny and helpful posts and update us on how your mil is improving.

Right I'm off away for another year then, same as last time.

Bye

Do T staff get into trouble for overcharges resulting in DTD?

Feeling slightly guilty if they do as I got DTD on a large electrical item that was supposed to be RTC but went through as full price as no RtC labels over barcode ...

Not all activias comparing:o

I have been clicking some random items onto Tvs A on MSM whilst checking the new items for the 'vs M' lists (well, not entirely random, given they're all cheaper at A than T - and by at least 10% - but random in that that happens to be the various stores' prices).

I'll try and check the result of my 'clickings' more fully later - I've added T Eday Value Sultanas (500g) 98p T, 84p. Strange how psychology affects us all - my T(vs M) list has had the Apricots and other ready to eat pack (not the pack obviously the stuff in it! Stuff that temporarily escapes my mind) - but those packs are actually lower weighted and more expensive - just they are same price in T & M and haven't increased in price. Whereas the S/P/Value Sultanas/Dried Mixed Fruit etc. were a lot cheaper than they currently are - and I became averse to them after the price rose, yet they are still cheaper (and per g cheaper) than the Ready to Eat ones I've got on Tvs M (page 254).

I've also got Bernard Matthews Breaded Turkey Steaks (400g) £1.75 in T until 4/6 (perhaps wait though; for DTDs?) as being a Tvs A filler, but check a.com carefully as this is from MSM. Youngs Flipper Dippers 10s - £1.75 T £1.00 A, but you're getting T to overcharge you, yet again, instead of going Avs M on them when M were 89p (now expired).

Rant warning:
Best to buy the Sultanas straight in A on a non-comp shop (or MSM is suggesting they are a potential Avs W filler item for outside N.I).
The Activias may be non-comparable - but, if they are versions that are stocked in A, is T going to rely on its T&Cs "reasons why items return N/A" i.e. T's own computer fails, and not refund to in effect match the prices. I'd rather not risk buying them in T. I'd just buy what I need separately in A and not need 10 different items. It may have been different if there was no A available nearby to me, but then again if say M's were cheaper and I had a T nearby but no A, I'd shop in M rather than go Tvs M for the same thing (or rather for a more expensive result, with a refusal from T CS to rectify the matter - they've done this three times on me in the last two years - yet another broken promise).

Nonetheless, I'm pleased that T does seem to have some good offers on at the moment - and that I can shop in A and S for them and avoid T altogether, as well as getting them cheaper (via APG) and/or better customer service from A and Sains (neither of whom have ever refused to make up some difference the systems didn't pick up properly).

Oh, that's the 'third person' I've now expressed my dissatisfaction to - after two members of my family so far - did T never learn the basic marketing concept of "the customer is right" and that dissatisfied customers/former customers tell about 20 or 30 other people about their treatment by a company that has provided them with poor service? In fact, how many read this thread? Not even just told merely 3 people now!
