Extra Lessons In Tempting Essentials

I got fobbed off last night on overcharge of a sauce, firstly that they don't do the £2 gift cards anymore, and after she checked with superior they only do it for Asda products.
Meant to check today whether it is written in black and white somewhere.
I did see Truffle Hunter there eyeing up the sauces when SA came with me to check SEL but I don't think she recognised me without my winter coat on. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Or maybe the beauty sleep is actually working.
Hi TS, :wave:
Im afraid asda have been telling you porkie pies (perhaps because you didnt have your lucky coat on!!!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:) If you have been overcharged they will issue you with a refund for the difference and a £2 gift card as a goodwill gesture, I learnt this from the elite
and is confimed on asda's web page and when I phoned customer services recently when I had a similar situation and the helpful person sent me
a giftcard, so maybe worth a try
I did get a couple of heinz sauces but not the problamatic one!
Followed by a trip to t3sc0s where I was pleased with all my bakery bargains- just going to enjoy your favourite-rhubarb pie!!!:rotfl:0 -
Not quite how he described it to me. I thought he meant if you were unhappy with something after you tried it you could go back.
I contacted customer services when I was unhappy with their value loo roll and a pack of peaches. They told me to take the packs back to store. Took empty packs back for both and got a refund, and she miscalculated and gave me double She's a bit of a pain normally so saw it as my reward for patience.
The peaches were good value but flavourless, don't normally buy fruit or veg from there, definitely do not after that What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare0 -

It was the 39p glitch pots i took back. Well i took back the packaging and ONE potato with a black centre
Just said i buy them all the time, think they're great but on this occasion i wasn't 100% happy, more 95%
They didnt have any to replace so i got a £2 refund. :money:
Didn't affect apg usage because i didn't take the receipt back in
Was easy as pieApparently, everybody knows that the bird is [strike]the word[/strike] a moorhen0 -
