    with thanks to the kind person who runs total couponing on FB

    you can register via your FB and then click on the quiz, top left hand side. The quiz is one muti choice question.

    it then sends you a print off MOC to your email address for 50p - these are on offer for 75p in Morrisons

    http://www.mysupermarket.co.uk/brands/barilla_in_morrisons.html

    MOCs are valid for 3 months so when they go off the offer in Morribobs stock pile the MOCs until the price is correct again

    you can do this 3 times a day!

    Perhaps the link needs to go onto the daily list, possibly???

    Nice one mhoc:T

    Just reading through a thread from September last year when T were taking apgs , now what a shame they don't do that again :)

    oh if only they would. I must have been at least 20 mins at the checkout in Asda today trying to use my APG. She scanned the barcode, scanned the other barcode, scanned the receipt, the till voided the lot, so it still said I owed the original amount.
    So she tried again, using a short cut she had been shown how to use, the till voided the lot again!
    Supervisor called, he put them through & the till voided them all. He suggested they had been used before & that was why they didn't work! I told him I wasn't happy he seemed to be accusing me of fraud.
    This situation has been going on in my local Asda for weeks, every SA has a different solution, but today was by far the worst, The queue behind gave up & went elsewhere.
    I suggested to the supervisor that maybe the manager should do something about it, only to be told the managers do nothing.
    in the end I told him the total of the APGs & they were put through as coupons, leaving me 14p to pay as I expected.
    Asda shopping is not a lot of fun at the moment!! :eek::eek:

    Beware the elderflower, though it is probably as cheap as buying a filler for the sake of it.

    SA put each voucher in at £2 so £3 extra off my shopping and the £2+ APG more than paid for my newspapers. All fillers removed but were items I needed or had MOCs for, so Picasso is very happy. Roll on the next time!

    12 items (8 different) on your receipt qualify for comparison Asda Tesco
    1x Stella Artois Cidre Raspberry Cider (500ML) £1.67 £1.66
    4x Stella Artois Cidre Cider (568ML) £6.67 £6.66
    2x Stella Artois Cidre Pear Cider (568ML) £3.34 £3.33
    1x Stella Artois Cidre Elderflower Cider (500ML) £1.65 £1.69
    1x Stella Artois Cidre Peach Cider (500ML) £1.67 £1.66
    Comparison total (compared products only) £20.50 £20.50

    Off to visit friends later this week. Sadly an email conversation reveals they are not cider drinkers. Shame!!


    It's just the way the APG system has split the 3 for £5 between the bottles Picasso. If you add up both sides it has compared ciders at £20 v £20 as it should.
