    I prepared my list, v A. Had various MOC's, and did a thorough walk up and down the till's whilst I shopped wisely for my SA. :rotfl:
    turns out i chose the wrong one. :doh: Trouty von trouty, she scrutinised every coupon ..so i had a few replies back, such as "oops, have i picked up the wrong uncle bens", "oops, isn't that cream MOC for the same cream", "isn't that shaving foam from the same brand," . Total £21, moc's used (incl. 3 UB's) then a £10 giftcard from a previous complaint. £5.49 to pay. But it should have been about 20p. and I expected at least £5 in PP. Apparently I "saved" £1.62 :think::naughty:

    So as i walked back to the exit, I popped the CS to refund the nappies - £5 back. ;) I can deal with 49p spent.

    Whoops, my son says yesterday that some shop assistants have delusions of management. That they go above and beyond their pay grade. :)
  • Just a quick heads up, I got a BS order dispatched email at 2.16pm. I placed the order approx. 9.30pm and ordered as a guest. HTH
