    Just looked out of the window at work, and an old-fashioned fairground merry-go-round has turned up, out of nowhere ... all very strange:think:

    Are little poeple going to descend there for a party or fete do you think?


    The little people are here!

    Lots of excitable children, who get to ride on the merry-go-round and pretend it's Christmas (we've had pretend snow as well, and there's a Christmas tree, and a giant Santa too).
    And they get to have their pictures taken, too.
    Though I did overhear one rather harrassed mum telling her little daughter: "Now, sweetie, please don't annoy the man that mummy works for":rotfl:

    On the mend now, thanks Bubbs.:)

    There has been one good thing that has come out of all the suffering I have gone through and that is I have lost nearly a stone in weight!:D:D

    I'm speechless (for once)! I told my dd my tale of woe about being so dizzy I can't travel and my frustration at not being able to do a Sada shop for all the glitchy things at the moment and she very kindly offered to go for me late last night. I gave her a list which included 6 bottles of fizzy, 2 packets of pork chops and a packet of carver ham (plus a few things we needed and some fillers) as I thought this would be about right for a reasonable APG without pushing it.

    DD came home very pleased with herself as she'd found everything on my list and decided to double up the quantities! This has produced a voucher for £23.35. She had no idea that large APGs can cause problems - mind you, I'm so new to this myself that I don't really know what the problems might entail, I've just read advice on here to keep APGs below £10.

    I'd be really grateful if someone could advise me on what problems this large voucher could cause and if there is any way I can spend it without it causing difficulties. I'm assuming that we haven't done anything illegal or against Sada rules have we?

    Plead ignorance and that you sent your daughter for shopping and she saw APG advertised and thought she'd check it works for me except I am the daughter doing her mums shop and I just get what is on her list so no idea how it happened

    £9.99 APG will scan without intervention
    £10+ APG will need manually inputting
    £15+ APG will need manually inputting and is supposed to be checked by a Supervisor. However the reality is it probably won't be, but that's very store dependent. I've used dozens, if not hundreds above £15 and never had one checked....that's not to say one day one of them might be checked.
    Pick your SA wisely and you shouldn't have any issue...hopefully. High APGs could alert staff to glitches which obviously you wouldnt want and it could get you noticed, but that again is very store dependent and depends on how paranoia affects you ;)
