    I would give it a go tweets...you have nothing to lose if the machine cant cope with mushing peas then you haven't really lost out.

    I did a steam generator iron test for MR last year and I was really impressed with it...it was and still is certainly better than my previous generator iron.

    Its good to see that MR are testing things again...its not a very active panel but if you happen to get lucky and be offered something its usually nice to try and at least you get to keep it afterwards.

    I have tested things for them in the past and you don't have to do much in posting reviews etc and like you say get to keep it after.

    I will give the curry I try later :)

    I once tested a steam iron out for Morphy richards, it was the best iron I ever had until it blew up. My friends uncle worked for them, that was how I got it.

    I tested an iron for them when DS was small it was a good iron.

    Just been to Asda to get the pizza meal deal and used my APG from fridays deal and it was refused, they called about 5 staff over and the manager and were trying to say its already been used.

    They did let me have it eventually but were really funny about it.

    I use SS and approve it myself ;)

    The 2015 Moto G is a great phone otherwise. It's like a cheap Nexus. Was worried about having the bootloader unlocked but EU law means they have to honour the warranty. It's a common issue, wonder if I'll get a repair or replacement... :money:

    Hope you get a new one ;)

    Sorry bootloader don't know what that means .

    I had one the other week, which certainly had not been used before. Does this come out of the system randomly voiding vouchers off? Supervisor got called over - said this meant it had been used before. Well, it had not, I can say that, but my word against a system? However, they did take the amount off 'just this time'. Pretty worrying though if the system is going to result in staff accusing customers of things they haven't done. I had another shop, in which several vouchers were used. It voided off one of them. Staff tried to correct it (obviously those staff must not know that it means the voucher has allegedly been used before) - it then voided off another which it had previously accepted.:mad::mad: So, clearly, it cannot mean what the supervisor from the other occasion said it did. The SS staff saw the problem. I did manage, a month ago, even after a voucher had been voided off, to scan the voucher and the receipt again, and that time it worked. However, this time it voided the deduction and then, when that got manually corrected, it voided a different voucher's amount. Presumably if that is then corrected, it then voids another different one that, up till that point, had been fine. They suspended the transaction, took the whole thing to instore CS and had them manually deduct all the vouchers.

    I don't know if the apparently random voiding of the voucher amount has anything to do with checking a receipt but not claiming the voucher immediately and then coming back and checking it again later and then claiming the voucher? Does it then think it's been issued and used before?

    I think it is nothing to do with the meal deal and the shop being 'glitchy'.
