    What a great tip! *puts tweezers in bag*

    I bashed my head on a metal bar last night pulling a receipt out from under a trolley. F me it hurt. And I felt like a right idiot.

    Times like those I question this habit :rotfl:

    I can't take the credit. It was a tip I picked up when I first started posting here :D

    You don't actually have to have a valid e-mail address eg.

    1@1.com is sufficient. Basically as long as you have *@*.com/co.uk/.es/.fr etc it will work. The e-mail address does NOT have to be a genuine one.

    try Wombler@Asd a.com :D

    Agree, I've not used personal one in ages. Just hit the keyboard with random letters and .com then I use random postcodes tOo, must have used most cities by now. Good wombles tonight, must have been the sun and wind. Loads of points and £5plus. I know that's smal by some standards, but good for me recently and included 3x T PP.

    If I changed the email address and postcode etc., would it still not pick it up from the cookies?

    I'm popping off now, but please still reply to me if you wish as I'll be back and will catch up in around an hour or so. TIA.

    Nope, the system would have to clever for that to be noticed and as we all know it's not ;)

    Savvy if you put it in you are at risk of losing it if you are up to your ten claims. Have you an ipod in the house?

    One other way to avoid losing it is to reboot your modem.

    Well before the app we all used to use made up names/addresses/emails. Clear cookies, use incognito or private browsing windows. These work I have never had the dreaded 10 item /£100 limit message.....even during the big glitch where we were all filling our cupboards every single day.

    I don't use the app, just use various emails addresses etc and the head office post code, so far touch wood I haven't had a problem.

    Were you in westie carpark today?


    Well let me tell you this- early am it was sparkling ......not a piece of litter in sight. By the end of play this evening there were two nappies in a trolley and a huge pile of vomit beside the bin at the front door:eek::eek::eek: The worst part of the vomit thing is that there was a juicy womble face down in it. I wasn't tempted:D but my DD took a photograph:D:D

    I started off by using real postcodes and made up emails, and thn found the app and it massively saved my sanity :D when you're doing 3 or 4 shops a day it starts getting difficult!

    Now I just check it on the app and print it off in Asda. Sod using my own ink :eek::rotfl:
