    I had a weird experience today too :(

    I ordered 2 different palmolives and they charged me £2.19 for the ones they had in stock despite them being RTC £1 instore

    As if that wasn't odd enough what they did with the subs was weirder :eek:

    One was delivered in full, but some of the 2nd scent were substituted for imperial leather and more of the first palmolive

    The imperial leather were charged at £2 (and this was shown as a saving against the £2.19 order price) but the Palmolive were charged at £1 :huh:.

    So I only got the RTC price on the delivery note for the ones that were offered to me as subs. It meant I had 2 different prices for the same item :huh:

    Did anyone else order any RTC items today?

    ETA: APG is in and results are all good

    4x Palmolive Mulberry Indulgent Handwash (250ML) £8.76 £4.00
    4x Palmolive Lemongrass Invigorating Handwash (250ML) £8.76 £4.00

    You paid for them :) lol.. the ones I got were free :)

    I need to start doing the veg like that.. I have bags and bags of sweets. its crazy!

    I've started getting veg. - it's usually a lot cheaper than 10p sweets overall - and, if you get a glitch, doesn't matter if the veg. are a penny or two more expensive elsewhere as the glitch far outweighs any minor 'loss' on the veg.!

    As long as you don't buy any washing powder though:mad::rotfl::(.

    It is ;) which is good because I'm not too keen on the lemongrass one.

    But free is free and the kids will always go through a million bottles of hand wash a week!

    Yes but when/where are you told when the store your order is coming from is starting the trial system?

    Instead of buying 10p sweets, buy

    A carrot, an onion, a parsnip, a potato

    Chop it up, sweat in a bit of butter add a stock cube and water. Simmer until soft and there's your lunch for tomorrow:)

    Then buy a banana for dessert:):rotfl:

    I had an email from them ages before Christmas saying what Sal has quoted so assumed that I would get another email when my store is trialing. So far nothing. I'll see if I can find original email. Don't hold your breath though.
