    I agree. People stuck to the t&c's of APG but were still criticised for posting their results.

    So my point is people picking up other people on something that might happen in the future. As I pointed out Morrisons/Sun may change the t&c's if they run it again based on what happened this time.

    I wasn't around for the big @ glitch. But what did that enatil? Was it APG related? Did it have any adverse effects afterwards?

    Yes it was an APG glitch. A vast array of items were available at silly prices, using triggers to get them to glitch. It lasted a fair while as well. A £15 cap was imposed on the APG either after it, or towards the end? I don't remember now.

    I'm probably in the minority but I didn't mind the £15 cap and nothing about my shopping habits would change if it ever were imposed again.

    i think the one you are talking about is someone that's apg came to over £100 so had gone over the apg's t&c

    But then as per t&c's it would have been restricted to £100 and their limit gone for the month.

    Interesting point of view

    The t&c most relevant to hammering an apg glitch is the. "Over £15 may be delayed/verified" which highlights that such shops could flag glitches to HO

    I don't recall an apg t&c saying they will pay you to take stuff away

    If Morries want to repeat this and make the t &c per person/visit it wouldn 't be the end of the world. It's a nice rare offer (not glitch) and we don't rely on it for our bargains like we do apg

    I agree it doesn't say you can take stuff away free but it also doesn't say you can't if their system fails. All of these must have been checked as "over £15" but none cancelled and the Reeds still working.

    Anyway, I am getting away from my main point which was the varied reactions different people get on this thread dependant on who you are.

    Thanks for clarifying that. I wouldn't mind if there was a £15 cap per shop also.

    I'm just thinking (I know bad habit!)
    We're off to Ms later to get more fruit and veg.
    I'm hoping they still do a kids eat free offer in the restaurant on weekdays.
    If they do I could be super lazy and not bother cooking tonight :think:
