    Oh I totally understand the rhyme and reason behind keeping things as under wraps as poss, it was just the fact that it seemed good sport to baffle newbs.

    Oh trust me, it's not just newbs that get baffled! But stick with it. All becomes clear (as mud!) in the end.:)

    I've had this thought.If an item is not appearing on comparison and is not part of a multibuy so cant be used as a trigger.If it was a very good price it could still be bought in with a glitchy shop without affecting the APG.Correct me if I'm wrong.

    As long as it's cheaper in the target shop - T, M, S, W. I think.

    Edit: Ignore me, you said not on comparison didn't you.

    Yes .If it was even the same price on all shops but you had to travel to the others.It would not affect the Apg.

    incresaes your spend and helps disguise your high APG

    won't count as 1 of your 8 items though

    I have a question that I hope someone can help me with. When you do a floflo shop and wish to return something, how do they work out how much to refund, especially if that item you wanted to return is more or less how much the total shopping cost. Do they take the discount away?

    I've read different posts stating that the discount stays on but I'm just wondering what happens if I return at a store; won't the assistant query the discount when she looks at the receipt?

    Does anyone know the answer to this?

    Pm'd you


    I did two on a C&c, but only did one instore. I add £5 to a GC when I do a bigger APG, just in case someone looks at the total. Another trick is to fold the receipt in half, showing the top half they need (transaction no etc) and they very rarely open the receipt to check the amount. ;) plus I top it up with a baby milk formula of £8 that I'll always use

    Tiger, do you mind if I ask how you do the gift card thing?
    Is it better at the top or bottom of the receipt?
    Is it like TS where they have a gift card section you grab them from? (I've never looked for them in my local As and its a small one :( )
    I keep bulking my shops out with stuff I probably don't need :o so gift cards would be much better :)
    Please and thanks :)
