Are there any brands other than Kleenex that will do or do you want me to stick to Kleenex? In other words, do I need to do a full comprehensive check of all tissues in M (and which is best price per tissue/per unit) or can I confine to Kleenex (and also M Savers being checked every time:rotfl:)? Is it Mansize in particular that it has to be or will any Kleenex do?

No dont go checking on my behalf, you do enough already for which we are grateful :T:T:T

I’ve had a few issues recently using MOCs and APGs at my usual store. I have tried normal checkout, SS conveyor belt and standard SS. Managed to crash a few different tills and had to take shopping to customer services. I try and keep a low profile but I think I am being watched now (maybe I am being paranoid).

Today I used 3 smallish APGs at the self-checkout, scanned the bottom barcode on each APG followed by the barcode on each receipt (if the scan of the receipt doesn’t work then manually entering the full transaction code from the receipt should also work).

All 3 went through approved and I went to pay the correct amount when the SA came up to me and asked how I managed to do that as she has to approve the APGs. Told her what I had done and she checked the receipts, hopefully it carries on working and I can glitch in peace.

BTW, I managed to get my refund for the 12 bottles of wine that I was over-charged for last week. Price should have been 12 for £50 but discount did not come off.

Thanks anyway :D:T but a's dont sell the twin packs, good value though at £2

Yes I bought a couple...it's the first lot ive actually bought since getting those boxes in t with the moc and pp a while ago.

Just make sure no offer sneaks onto the Dettol 36 Surface Wipes instore whilst I am yet again not looking will you. A £2.26 and currently £1 in T and M (M only went onto offer yesterday so may still need to await for update).

So, I'm putting those onto the list - I don't expect anyone to compare for straight 10% off £1 - even though there are some 84 pack versions at £2 in M but A and M uselessly price-matched. (£2 for 84 is way expensive - there were real cheaper prices on bigger packs than that I seem to recall when they were being discontinued and cleared out, for those lucky enough to find stock of those left at that time.)

I had a problem with scanning yesterday - as the machine asked for scan other barcode. I then got into the loop of scanning anything that would scan and, in the end, it scanned the 'wrong' barcode (the one we all used to scan before) and took the voucher amount off the bill as a manuf's coupon. Then wanted SA approval:( - but, anyway, the SA put their code in and voucher safely deposited into the machine.

So, after a run where they all scanned voucher and receipt fine, it seems it's now back to not doing so on some occasions:(.

We sold something to Siemens once, they neglected to tell us that they take 6 months to pay:eek: All big companies do it because they can, even if you sue them they just ignore it.

Fair enough. I think I may have to actually do some work this time :rotfl:

I'm tired and hungry. About to go to a carvery to remedy that! Going to back to work tomorrow and working every day bar 2 until the first week of April I've really missed bargain shopping, America is so expensive for basic things, like broccoli costing £2.
