    Hello,

    Just got a lovely email from Mr T CS offering me a £15 GC for overcharge on meal deals. DTD was not offered in store.

    Thank you to posters on here who share their experiences, I was brave enough to query the DTD policy. :A

    I dont want to keep going over old ground. Weve all said our peace as far as im concerned. Nerf I saw you posted that you had collected your squash but I saw none of your posts showing which to buy until well after I had posted my questions so im afraid not being psychic I didnt have that information until id returned from my shop.

    As it happens my risky shop paid off. I decided just to buy the fruit and barley and see what happened. As for the deodorant, I just copied someone elses shop and thankfully they had more stock today so i didnt come unstuck with that.

    Mine compared favourably to tosco and I got an APG for £9.35

    Just got a Chokablock Billionaires Egg for £1 :D

    It was on the RTC & had a yellow sticker for £8 (from £10)

    Took it to CS who peeled off bit over BC & scanned it at £5.

    Sold it to me for £1 & it is delicious :D

    You need to be a PS Plus member...costs about £30 per year but well worth it for the free games.
