    £680,000 ASDA voucher thief

    http://money.aol.co.uk/2015/01/22/thieving-asda-worker-ordered-to-repay-680-000/?icid=maing-grid7%7Cuk%7Cdl7%7Csec1_lnk2%26pLid%3D324089

    she was responsible for "destroying used vouchers"

    Not sure if this article is referring to APGs or store gift vouchers because I was under the impression the APGs got sent to Valassis but it says this
    Ward worked in the cash office at Asda and was responsible for reconciling accounts and destroying used vouchers. Instead, though, she stole them, along with cash, and falsified the accounts to disguise what she'd done.

    This made me smile :)
    "Anyone who suspects someone of living beyond their means should not hesitate to report it to the police - we will take action."
    I'm sure many of the Elite could be described as "living beyond their means" judging from the amount of expensive toiletries, cleaning products, major brand cat food, crisp treats etc that we possess :rotfl:

    If it weren't for the fact she worked in A cash office and stole cash and gift vouchers too, a lot of the evidence used could point to some members of Elite :eek::

    A large number of A vouchers
    A number of gift cards
    Numerous bank accounts
    A stash of unopened items
    Lavish holidays including cruises

    At the end it says if you suspect anyone of living beyond their means you can report it to the police ... the Elite ways would take some explaining even where staying within the T&Cs ...

    That's right, I just checked my receipt and that's definitely the correct shampoo Scamps bought, same code but mine had an L on the end. Either this means that the shampoo is no longer in the offer or I wonder if the Ls appear at the end after you pay and the L didn't show because the SA voided :think: I say this because I noticed that if you use an APG on the self service tills it puts your voucher near the beginning of the receipt after the first item. It seems the till has a way of inserting information in the middle of the receipt so maybe it can insert the L codes at the end of the shop :think:

    Edit: I just noticed Scamps receipt is from a self service till, see how the vouchers are near the beginning of the receipt. The manned tills put them at the end. Scamps I wonder did you notice yourself that the multi didn't come off or did the SA do this?

    When on self scan you can see the Multibuys coming off as you scan at the top of the screen and the total reduces, so those at least do process the multis as you go along and I feel sure the staffed tolls do too (unlike W system where it takes them off at the end when they press total).

    We will not know until someone else tries whether it has been removed from the multi or just the system playing up on that occasion.

    The manned tills in my A also put the apg vouchers near the top of the receipt.
