:(It turns out the 'rest of my shop' was all paid for at full A price:mad::mad:.

They're playing a cruel trick on me! The Radoxes fine, but my substantive shop, of four items, all N/A vs T:(.

These now N/A as well (old site):

2 x ASDA Smartprice Cornish Pasty (actually Minced Beef & Veg. Pasty) (150g)£0.76N/A
1 x ASDA Smartprice Sparkling Water (2L)£0.17N/A

As long as there are two systems running at the same time asking them to check validity is risky

Eg. What if you buy bog roll on old system and get an £8 apg but they check on new system and it says you get diddly squat?

Thats what was concerning me. Up till now my store has been great apart from 1 SA that I avoid like the plague ! Others have commented on some of the bigger vouchers but appear to be pleased for me - I sometimes comment that a particular item is reduced to clear in T's especially if I have bought some more of the same thing. They seem to feel that I would be daft not to stock up on something thats giving a good return. May well not last though ! The supervisor went off with my receipt after she had OK'd it today (quite happy and certainly no hassle) - the CA reckoned she was probably going to go and buy the same 'basket' herself.

I suspect they are. It always makes A more than 10% cheaper:mad: as 3 for £1.00 vs 3 for £1.20 loses a bit. I so wish T were ever 2 for 80p or something like that instead, rather than always being so much more expensive! (Could then have used them with a Wine Gums pack as a trigger... but, no chance, T always wanting buying in 3:mad:!)

For SFSB... I hope you dont mind

I went into my sada today and collared the manager asked if i can speak with him in his office. He was really nice and said of course. I briefly explained that a friend of mine that lives up north has been banned from using apgs in his store.. the manager was shocked . I said my friend sometimes shops every day with 3 4 5 or 6 transactions he asked wheres the problem in that ? I said my friend was told that hes abusing the apg system..he said thats ridiculous if hes shopping for family members / friends which im presuming he may be each person can have apgs up to £100 a month each. I went on to say the manager told my friend he had been onto asda house and they agreed my friend should be banned from using apgs..my manager said.........no way on earth would asda house say anything like that because its classed as turning customers away..I'll call asda house now and keep the phone on loud speaker which he did and the lady confirmed everything he had told me I suggest you ask your friend to call asda house himself and explain whats happened he may well be posted a gift card as an apology too...
The manager said to me I know you use apgs on a daily basis have any of my staff given you any problems ? I said only if the apg is over a tenner then they call a supervisor but thats it.. He said we all know the apg system has many flaws mainly when it does not pick up multi buys..and I know if I was a customer and saw multis not being picked up I would go back again and again thats only human nature.
So SFSB please ring asda house yourself cant hurt to queery this

There's been some lovely comments over the last 24 hours and I would just like to say thank you, they are all very much appreciated.

Dippydoo, what you did was absolutely amazing, thank you. I just wish I had read your post earlier, however I have sent an email to Asda asking what the position is and did they sanction the course of action that was taken or is it possible that an over zealous manager might have gone it alone? I'll let you know how I get on.

Evening Elite!

Popped and bought some play wipes after work and used an under the radar APG of £4.75 from a receipt of £28. The checkout operator had to get someone over to authorise it. Said they were having to do that now. Will have to be a tad careful to keep under the radar. Going to have tea now and catch up with everyone's day. More later folks.

My e Vouchers seem to have all arrived in my account. I perishing well wish A's wouldn't change the dates on 'old'vouchers' that are the same denomination as new ones - it makes it harder to shop 'flexibly' ! Now I've got just a few left with the old dates and some more with the new dates but I have no way of telling which are which. I will have to refresh the whole lot otherwise some may expire on their original old dates and I will lose them.

I suppose the answer is to use all the vouchers at the same time.

Following savvy's post about the election, who is planning to stay up all night? I don't know if I will last the entire night, but I'll stay up as long as I can, I think it's going to be a very interesting evening.

I'll be up, as usual for an election night, and will have no trouble staying up the entire night as it's my usual hours these days:rotfl:! I used to become nocturnal whenever I was on leave from work anyway - I prefer the night-time and I'm a long-term night owl!

Actually this time, I don't think the night is going to be interesting at all (except possibly Jeremy Vine's quadruple swingometer:j:D:(:rotfl:) - the night itself will, I think, reveal absolutely nothing of substance and, instead, it'll be the period from 5am onwards that will be the 'interesting' part... the election is not going to settle the result, in the sense that it won't tell us what government we'll get... instead the important part is the day and days afterwards in which the parties take the result and do whatever they do with it! So, in fact, Mr Landale was probably right - we should miss it all and go to bed and get up from about 5am, see what the 'results', in terms of the numbers then are, and watch from then onwards as to what is happening. Nonetheless, the fact that something was a pointless exercise itself has never stopped me:rotfl::rotfl: - I'll be staying up through the night anyway. (The 'pointless' exercise here being the individual declaration of results and the watching the numbers add up throughout the night - that's pointless instead the actual totals that they have added up to at the end of it are extremely important and far from pointless.)

I've booked Friday off work for this very reason :j

I've done that in the past. (Nice long weekend as well:T:j. Although then completely useless for the Friday as I've stayed up!) But no need for me to book time off now, as I'm not in work at the moment, though I did come out of it fairly well and I'm still doing alright.:) At this rate I might stay up until Friday night:rotfl:, with probably still no resolution and then get up as normal for Saturday (probably find they've done a deal in the dead of night just after I went to bed on Friday night or something:(:rotfl:).

I was up for 1992, when it could have been Labour but wasn't (the polls got it wrong). I was up for 1997 when it was Labour landslide, didn't pay much attention to 2001 when it was a foregone conclusion and had become rather disillusioned with it by 2005, but 2010 I was there - became interesting when it started to show a hung Parliament - I'll be up this time, just to see!
