    Sorry if this has already been mentioned but I've not been here for a couple of weeks and really can't face trawling back. Nothing came up in searches.

    APG gave me this last night:

    16 items (6 different) on your bill qualify for comparison Tesco
    +£14.43

    2 x ASDA Baby New Potatoes with Herbs & Butter (360g) £2.00 £0.78
    1 x ASDA Chosen by You Smoothie Orange, Mango & Passio... £1.00 N/A
    1 x Muller Fruit Corner Yogurt Variety (6x150g) £2.00 £1.94
    1 x Muller Crunch Corner Biscuit Yogurt (6x135g) £2.00 £1.94
    1 x ASDA Chosen by You Mixed Berry Smoothie (750ml) £1.00 N/A
    1 x ASDA Chosen by You Extra Strong Garlic Baguettes (... £1.88 £1.00

    Was in a hurry so grabbed one of the meal deals for £6. Multibuy on receipt - not on APG. The only thing which compares is the garlic bread.

    We had an attempted burlary many years ago and hubby was upstairs tiling. He looked through the window when someone knocked, but didnt bother but had had a good look at him. Next thing the glass came in the door and he run down stairs and chased off the guy.

    But he then had to go and look at some mug shots and couldn't believe just how many folks he knew by sight, from the local pub and from work :)
    Thats one dodgy hubby you have there Izzey :rotfl: His first name isn't Don is it :p

    Same thing happened this morning. The SA put them through anyway (we definitely bought at least the minimum salad/veg/fruit to use them) but they didn't scan! Can't help but wonder if these have been voided due to abuse :/

    Same happened to me, the SA put the veg one through manually.
    I assume it's because of abuse, didn't worry me too much because we'd got more than £3 in veg, just ended up chatting with the SA as to what classifies as veg and what is salad :D

    Morning
    Not caught up yet as the plasterer was here at 7:eek:
    Hugs Sarahdol hope your cat turns up soon. I'm looking after a stray as no charity had room for him. I'm also having a new bathroom fitted the blooming cat keeps disappearing under the floor boards for hours. Before Izzey tells me off yes Wallace the cat is staying.
    Hugs to all who need them.
    Off to catch up
    Hope everyone has a good day x

    And here's me thinking Wallace was looking after you - he should be relieving your stress levels and you should be smothering him with kindness :D:D (failing that, whiskas and felix) :):)

The wedding is Monday �� Mum flew back from Spain yesterday and is en route to me as she is having the ankle biters.

    I hope you get a gazillion glitches on everything you want :D


    Have a good trip and enjoy LV and the wedding.

    Don't bring me back anything to big !!!
