Did anyone enter the Alba science research for a body cream test? My wife did and got accepted but as she's not here, she can't do it! I was a bit bored earlier so I took the stickers off to see what it was..

DON'T click the link if you do not want to know what it is!!

It's this...

Why is it that whenever someone is just downright outright rude to me I just turn into a blubbering mess and I don't stand my corner.

We went out last this morning having waited for the postman so it was late when we went out but whilst we out a company tried to deliver flowers. Apparently they tried twice sometime between 10.30 and 2.30 and the neighbour would not take them in.
So the company left a message on the answer phone for me to ring.
I've just rang and a very sharp lady answered the phone and more or less said it was my fault for not being in (although I obviosuly didnt know the flowers were coming) so I am not getting my flowers despite my not knowing they were coming. She now says her delivery driver does not work on Saturday afternoon so the flowers will not be delivered until Monday. She might try and deliver this evening but this will put her out as it will mean her going the wrong way home.
She knew the person who ordered them was abroad and I told her it was my son out in kabul. I don't think they made much of an impact on her.
She said she might deliver them tonight which I said would be nice as its my birthday on Sunday - made me feel like getting the delivery tonight I will be inconveniencing her.
just looked the company up and they are situated about 10 minutes from here and their website does say deliveries 7 days a week - I can't believe a flowers delivery company only does Saturday mornings when everyone is out all week.
not in the best place as it is. We try not to listen to the news if we can but sometimes it sneaks up on you and it was on the car radio. yesterday there was a big bombing to do with the forthcoming elections and several UN employees were killed - it brings you up sharp. I know son is safe or as safe as its possible to be in that hellhole but its still far too close for comfort.

What a horrible thing to happen - this womans customer service is appalling and as someone who used to work in the flower business, all I can say is that she shouldn't be dealing with customers in this manner and doesan't deserve your sons custom. If you can summon up a bit of anger I would be ringing her and saying how much her attitude has upset you :mad::mad:

:hello:

I've done another test shop today, hopefully the glitch is still working, i've attempted to add another item

Results @ 5.15.

Is it worth waiting for please, as you gave no clues yesterday what it was or where and unfortunately did not report back.

Personally, I would prefer not to receive a glitch alert without any further information ... Saves wondering what I am missing and on an evening is the difference between a relaxing evening with a selection from my cellar or a coffee in case a late night visit to A or T may be required

That said, I appreciate these things being tested to save everyone a wasted journey or to see if corrected on MSM/APG.

Given your comment about waiting for results, we can deduce it is in A and linked to APG results. Any further clues please?

Many thanks

I tried a couple of items last night and the buy it now price has to be 40% more than your auction starting price. Unfortunately it does not include best offer, but that would be wishful thinking.
