    Nope, nearly had someone elses beer they were trying to give me, perhaps they gave someone else your ham and scotch eggs!

    Locarr, not sure if your comments were aimed at me? I've done 2 C&C's this week, and asked about a third. I haven't done any other C&C APG shop since whenever the bags of chocolate were out (early summer I think?). I did one Pringles shop this week, but other than that can't actually remember the last time I did an APG shop in store.

    I don't think thats particularly ripping the a*** out of it, maybe others do? Apologies if the comment wasn't aimed at me.

    Its quite rare for me to do APG shops to be honest, since my surgery I literally can't be bothered to go out much at all. I do "muggle" shopping at Tesco these days, using the free delivery saver thing I got when it was glitching to get an any time plan for nothing (must remember to cancel that next year!).

    I suspect that its not so much the total number of CC shops - its the sudden glut of several in a few days that might well cause problems especially if you get the same staff member more than once and you have non supplied UDIs on more than one of them. Staff aren't as daft as we sometimes think they are, they do notice and wonder customers keep ordering the same OOS item and are likely to mention it to their Manager.

    I've tended to do one CC every 7/8/9 days and have varied my collection times to try to avoid the same staff. I'm not sure if even that is pushing my luck.

    I've had different staff on both collections. However, the c&c stuff isn't picked at our store, its picked elsewhere then sent to our store. Not sure how much notice pickers take of name/address etc?
