    Trigger (as at today): Kellogg's Breakfast Biscuits Chocolate (6x22g) - "Image coming soon" it says on a.com - a nice new item!:)

    But... A5da Spring Greens?? I didn't buy Spring Greens: I bought Curly Kale:mad:.
    :mad::mad:Argh - these SAs can't be trusted with anything - even watched her earlier in the shopping to make sure it was loose bananas she put through* - I'll make sure I go through SS next time, clearly I have to watch them on every item otherwise.

    So there I am - :j from the Nutri-Grain but :mad: from the incorrect item being put onto my shop. In fact, it's rather taken the :j:j off the Nutri-Grains - not only not charged 10% cheaper than 75p each, or even 10% off £1.00 but increased to £1.30:eek:-10%. ...I'll go and lie down. Back soon!:cool::D

    [I bought the right Herbs/Butter Potatoes - as ever!:D:D]

    *And separated out the Spag/Saus. to make sure the right number went through.

    Grrrrrr just checking my apgs from earlier and realise I have been charged 3.98 for each of my olive oils rather than the £3 roll back price. Will I get a gift card for this do you think?


    Its clearly an overcharge so, under their rules, you should get a gift card. Might have to press them a bit though as not all staff hand them out 'willingly'.

    Yes:j:j. (Liking seeing that package as it's worked for me.)

    Now..just need it to work again:rotfl:. Thirty long minutes to wait:eek: (probably the time they spent before refusing the Campbell's MOCs - relived through now).

    I thought I was the only one who rememebered when we had to buy two magazines to find out what was on in any detail . I once lived in a city where different streets had different ITV franchises and you had to be careful which TV Times you picked up at the newsagent.

    And the TV didn't start till close to five and it was kind of a children's hour with two programmes and Jackanory. Except for Friday when it was Crackerjack!

    And they played the national anthem after the last programme. And you needed a special button so your telly could get BBC2.

    My grandparents telly was older than that and they called BBC1 channel 3 and STV was channel 3. Of course it wasn't called BBC1 back then!

    And every second TV show (Gunsmoke, Bonanza, High Chaparral, Wild, Wild West, Maverick, Alias Smith and Jones, the Virginian, the Lone Ranger, etc....even Kung Fu) was a western (as were half the movies).:D

    I remember Alias Smith and Jones, Pete Duel and Ben Murphy as Hannibal Hayes and Kid Curry. Pete Duel died in a shooting accident, just googled and found out self-inflicted, and cast apparently had to get back on set 12 hours later :eek: (according to Wikipedia) http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alias_Smith_and_Jones

    I loved that series.

    Thanks for that. I'm quite prepared to press for it as the staff don't know me in there (yet :rotfl:)

    Whilst I wait for my second shop, one useless womble in the meantime.

    I wouldn't have bought anything that they bought (at least not in the manner in which they did:D).

    Just this of mention:

    1 x Princes Tuna Chunks in Brine (4x160g)£3.00(A) £5.00(Sains.)

    T at £4.00 on the comp. And M at £6.99 (undoubtedly correct:D).
    Not that I would be happy with that £3 price:eek:. Need to wait for someone to go down in price, to around £3, then Avs them, preferably at the same time as significant cashback like we did last time:rotfl:. If trying from S though (despite all this!), need to check that S is exactly the same size (and also check it's on a.com at that price).
