I wombled a long receipt though not very hopeful. It's odd, though, because at the end it has a lot of stars, then tells me store transaction, terminal trans-no and amount. No indication about whether clubcard points have been claimed. Tried to key it into PP and it asked for my email address.

Can someone explain this one to me please? Thanks in advance.

Weird. It's not a suspended transaction is it?

Can you see any payment details at all?

No, no payment details...

I might try to take it to CS and see what they say..!! They spent £156 so CC points are not to be sneezed at!

I'm looking at the coupons in the latest A mag. There's 50p off Clover lighter than light. Does anyone know if this compares to £1 at M's please? Thank you.

visited my local Wilkos and they'd covered the De Icer barcodes and labelled them 50p! I wonder if they're meant to do this.

The coupons normally take a few weeks so I wouldn't worry just yet. If everyone else is saying 'I've got mine' and you still haven't a week or two later, then I'd give them a call, but otherwise it's a case of waiting it out.

I'm very popular in the office this week, just dropped off 10p bags of whoopsied Maris Pipers to some of my colleagues and have promised them the berries coupons when they turn up! If only T would take the hint and send me the homeware one, which I would actually use, I'd be very happy, but it doesn't seem likely.

BBQ with friends tonight, really looking forward to it! Unfortunately we won't be using the patio dining set like I'd planned (Homebase :mad:) so it'll be the £3 camping chairs which were RTC in T last year!

You should really claim for loss of enjoyment/loss of utility or something - they're lucky: if it'd been me I'd have tried to charge them storage costs for keeping all the stuff at my house (and my 'storage costs' folks are absolutely exhorbitant charges;)) - I could have 'hired' out that part of my house for all they know and thus lost the hiring charges. Now, Savvy not quite in the real world is he?:o, back to RL.

I know you mention 10p whoopsied potatoes - you people always do it better than me:o. Back from A - I asked them instore about the Desiree ones. Apparently they "don't do them anymore" (they are showing on a.com and msm - maybe I ought to be trying click and collect and get a sub?:think:), but they are now the Red Potatoes instead (Romano on this occasion). So, I've bought those, took a punt on them, I thought "I don't remember ever seeing Red Potatoes on msm for A so maybe if I buy them they'll appear as Desiree", with a further item in my shop in case they are a no-show - unless I still haven't bought enough beyond that:o:rotfl:! (Red do say "Marvellous for mash" on them just like the Desiree do on a.com.) It's looking good - *no* Red Potatoes 2.5kg on msm signed in or out but the Desiree ones are there - wonder if the Red ones will appear as Desiree? I hope we'll find out in the next couple of hours (an hour already gone since my shop:o:o). Yes I'd end up paying twice as much as Mr T if they fail to appear:o:o.

I wouldn't

It might be an aborted or suspended transaction

You: can you add these points?
Them: you haven't actually paid. You owe us £156
You: it's not my receipt :eek:

I speculated yesterday that S would be the best comparison; If I get chance to test in the next day or so I will and let you know the M comparison, but RL and a need to use up a PP might keep me away from A for a day or two.

Nothing glitchy but maybe some useful fillers.

Savvy mentioned the Desiree, couldn't find 'em, but the twin Cathedral city compared nicely at M. Only after did I discover a T's CC mailing for £1.20 off anchor cheese which is about £2.20 a block doh!
Cadbury Dinosaurs compared better at M that T if anyone needs any (79p)



1 x ASDA UHT Semi Skimmed Milk (500ml) £0.54 £0.54
1 x ASDA Gold Roast Freeze Dried Instant Coffee (100g) £1.55 £1.55
1 x Cathedral City Mature Cheddar (2x350g) £5.00 £3.82
1 x ASDA Smartprice Pure Orange Juice from Concentrate... £0.65 £0.65

Glad you got a glitch on the SP Refuse Sacks:D.

Also pleased you got a different coffee than the one suggested on my list - the 500g CBY Rich Roast Granules - they are cheaper per g. but work out at spending somewhat over £4.00 than getting the 100g ones for 'just' £1.40:T. Glad people have their own minds, that see what's best value for money and avoid falling into my own 'pin up backside' approach.
