I think they work from a database of what prices are in each store on any given day rather than look at the price on the receipt.
I've seen people pay £10 and get £12 cashback so it can just as easily work for you as against you
Just email them and ask them to correct itApparently, everybody knows that the bird is [strike]the word[/strike] a moorhen0 -
Hi ILTS, sorry cant heelp but ask and bet someone who is lurking will know

No worries, I just want someone to have a look at the car and see if they think it's around the right price for what it is as I am a bit cautious about cars as we don't really know a lot about them

[1] I know - people generally (seem to) think that things are not okay, for no logical or rational reason for it and are quite emphatic in their views about that. As you have demonstrated now. You'll telling me something isn't okay?
(I'm, perhaps, inappropriately detached about my views in this post:o:o.)
I'm not shocked at all. To some extent, I like people that profess to be "shocked" by you (although I hope that that is in no severe emotional sense for you). Maybe it's a sad indictment of human society or human behaviour that I am not shocked. However, I take no view on it. Being the completely detached, totally objective and impartial person that I am. Perhaps seeming to be inappropriately so sometimes. I think because, when it comes to societal standards, you (that is "everyone in general") cannot not have a view on something.
You know what, I didn't think that song was okay, even with the alteration made to it. In the place in which it was in. And it did give me some negative physical effects as a result of it. Actually, I get quite emphatic about things sometimes - and what that does is I feel very angry indeed inside and then start having heart racing for absolute hours on end (sometimes days) - the more unacceptable I think something is - fortunately the heart racing thing (from me feeling inside quite uncontrollably angry - I never express it on the outside) hasn't happened very recently.
Thing is, even if I consider things "acceptable" or - even if I don't consider them acceptable because I neither consider them acceptable nor unacceptable but have no view on the matter (being impartial) - that does not affect that other people have a say and usually their opinions about unacceptability are given automatic acceptance and trump the matter. Except when I myself think something is wrong or unacceptable and then apparently it's okay:huh::(. (:rotfl: - got to laugh I think.)
It's most sad people think it's the norm ,savvy so maybe you're not alone.
Rotfl savvy I haven't heard that for ages did make me laughIgnore reality.There's nothing you can do about it.
I have done reading too!

Really? I'm actually intelligent, rather than "sad" and calling me "sad" could offend me. However, fortunately, I'm not letting it get to me. It is your opinion and I'm taking it that way - you're perfectly entitled to your view (and I think your view is one that is widely shared). I don't know if it's "sad" people - and I'm not quite sure what that means - for whom it is the norm. Maybe it is a generational thing (and gender thing - don't bring gender into it Savvy for goodness me:eek::rotfl:) or maybe it is not.
I don't think I'm sad. I've just gone at it completely (and possibly inappropriately) objectivity and without any preconceptions - or erased any preconceptions that were given to me as a child and looked at it from complete afresh and entirely detached - and reached my own views on the matter. Rather than the views that my parents or teachers tried to give me - and had me believing for several decades, automatically and without question - and the views that almost everyone has been given through societal childhood indoctrination. I am being a provocative read. However, I suspect I am - or it seems to me that I am or maybe I am - out of step with what is generally accepted on this at the moment.
I think we set our own individual standards, as long as we're all behaving within the law and any terms and conditions that websites etc. impose on us, arguably for good reason. If I don't have a problem with something personally then I don't, and if someone gives me a problem, then I have a problem with it. For me it's as simple as that.
I think the whole point is that we get along in society harmoniously and without causing undue upset (or other 'bad' emotional reaction) to people. It's about that - and as long as no-one's unduly upset (an example of due upset might be a doctor informing someone they have a terminal illness) then that is fine. Well, it's not fine that people have terminal illnesses, but you know what I mean.
Yet how do I do that? Someone, somewhere, may be annoyed by my repeated posting and if I've annoyed them, then that's me being unacceptable since it's caused someone some bad emotion. I hope not. However, even despite my hope and even despite my lack of intention, that does not account for the effect on others or how they feel.0 -

nerfys post quoting me is still there, any asterisks youve seen other than that post were altered by the quoter.0 -
Depends wether you think it's exceptable to call people greedy [etc.]...
In retrospect, now, I don't think it depends on whether I think is acceptable or not. I think it depends on other people thinking it is unacceptable.
:doh:Those pesky 'other people' that have to be taken into account in the consideration again:rotfl::rotfl:.0 -
