    A little tip when shopping in Sainsbobs....


    When loading your belt, put the first item as a separate transaction. It often spits out a £1.50 WYS £15 CS that can be used straight away on the rest of your shopping.


    Worked for me today. Milk (£1.39) was enough to trigger the spit! Obviously, need to use Nectar card.


    Shame I only spent £13.44 on my 2nd transaction. Doh!


    Has anyone figured out the pattern of these till spits in Sainsbobs? I seem to get one every other time.

    I put the first item in a separate transaction every time I go to Co-op too. I don't go very often and it usually works.

    I have done a cc for the ariel for a 10am/12pm so will let u all know if it's ok after i go and do the m7s run so should b back for about 1pm.
    I ordered 10 of the same ariel +fillers so i hope that works as i have noticed that most people are getting a mix of 3 ariels? :idea:

    Never done an apg with an online shop so i assume i check as soon as i get home and if it shows an apg it will keep it for when i wan't to use it in a further glitch within the time period?

    I have read that i will not get the apg untill Tues or thereabouts but that's ok just not done 1 online b4.:o

    Sounds like you've got it ;) sometimes there's a delay in being able to check APG....it says 48 hours I think? Ignore that, as soon as the store updates it to having been picked up you can check.
    Mine is always ready to check by the time I drive home but I know others have had a bit of a delay

    Same happened to mine, jumped from payable back to tracked. They had an error on system so it will remain in tracked until M&S purchase is confirmed & while they check if you are in catchment area for local paper selected on promotion :mad::mad:

    Can someone remember what the local paper was please?

    Have just done a CC for tomorrow morning with Ariel. I'm still not clear what I need to check on the invoice?
    Can someone advise please?
    Will it say £3.00 or £5.20 and when can I input details to see if an APG is a goer?
    I've read back and all clear till this point for me.
    I've been sick for a while and stuck at home, so this will be my first outing for a week. Wanted to go to M&S today but was still unwell.


    Thanks guys

    Thanks fc the OH is sitting here shocked at the cash am spending just now between Ts, As and m7s :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:but she is really worried about the As 1 as i allways show her the coupons when the 3hrs r up.
    But she is happily watching the fridge and freezer fill up whilst she is lying and dying with the flu god bless her.
    PS. The OH deals with the food budget. :p

    I might be able to arrange a sneaky peak of a recipe binder - colour-coded and finger-tabbed.:wink:




    I don't have a euphemism, unfortunately. I used to have an innuendo, but it escaped and returned to the wild.

    Eeep :)

    I've saved those organisation !!!!!! links for the weekend. Genuinely want to give them my full attention :rotfl:

    Still catching up....gimme a mo' :D
