    Siobhan, I think what they are trying to say is its part of the 'game' Some you loose, some you win. If you win, woohoo! If you loose, take it on the chin, its only 'fair' in the 'game'. And yes, food returned gets binned.

    This song was a Northern soul classic as the company changed the mind about releasing it - only two copies are known.

    i agree as well if we are not willing to take an occasional hit we should not be doing glitchy shops as we all know its a gamble and its not fair to take it out on the shop just because it does not work,,

    Another example of the same.

    Thank you, my shops actually worked. And if they hadn't I would of kept them ( we each a lot of chicken) it was a passing comment to those who Prehaps could afford the hit. I just find it odd people taking the moral high ground at all discussing any of this.
    So where's this code of practice then? Or is it a general code?

    No, not a general code, just as you say, a moral code. It just develops I guess. :)

    That's not on Siobhan, it's not the Elites code of practice and it's wrong taking fresh stuff back to any store. They throw this out! Wasted food.

    You maybe shouldn't attempt high value fresh foods hoping for an apg without being prepared to take the hit. There again too much returning of any item/items just because they didn't glitch will raise your profile in store so please be careful.

    Whilst on the subject, I have had a quick skim over several pages and it seems apparent that people are just not reading the posts thoroughly enough :mad: I've seen people asking what size pack is the toilet roll, is it a 9, or is it a 12 pack?
    Another was the yogurt, a few I saw were totally the wrong SORT of yogurt! Please read posts thoroughly where someone has reported a shop that works

    I don't mean any of this in a nasty way but needed to be said ;)

    edit: oops, that's bigger than I intended, so so sorry

    I agree , if you're not willing to possibly pay full price then perhaps you shouldn't play the game.

    The amount of likes show that lots of people agree.

    I think of it as gambling. If you win at the bookmakers, you win, but if you loose, you dont ask for your stake back. If that makes sense at this time of night.

    Not at all. Its always good to discuss, different people have different moral standards, no one is right or wrong.

    As above my personal option is I would keep things and have, but I think if some poor soul got caught up in the excitement and could really afford it , who are we to judge?
