    Their system would be more generous if everyone used it and they must have tested sample receipts to see how much it would cost them if they left the terms and conditions unchanged but issued at point of sale or deducted from bill.

    Therefore it will change in a way that will promote it to reach more people.Much less generous I'm sure.

    Issuing at point of sale would cost them an arm and a leg I'm sure. Plus it's an unnecessary cost as muggle shoppers are neither wanting it or expecting it....if they wanted it they wouldn't be chucking their receipts away:rotfl:

    Anyway enough of this rubbish, I need to catch up with aau's knob:D

    My understanding was that the £5 off £40 was devised by a person who left A several years ago so wasn't going to return. And it hasn't returned so far.

    It would be a shame if they just went to comparing branded goods - I'd have thought a major selling point of their current scheme is that they are now the only place that is comparing own label! That could be promoted more to get people to shop at A. However I suspect it doesn't matter at all - the stores just pretend it does - as people shop at their nearest store regardless of which store it is! Does anyone really shop elsewhere because of a price scheme? Apart from us minority on here seeking to take advantage from it.

    This was the case for decades, where supermarkets built their entire business model around the idea that their customers would return week after week. In the past few years this has started to change pretty drastically, with more people willing to go out of their way to the German discounters, and also with more people shopping online, where its irrelevant how far away the physical store is. A's sales fell more than 3% last quarter, and its market share has fallen to its lowest level in nine years. Aldi's sales were up more than 15%.
