  • Odd, my easter egg test didn't work.

    14 items and it says I didn't have 8 different items with 1 comparable?

    The basket was:
    TC egg
    Wispa egg
    Twirl egg
    1 x baking potato
    4 x Johnson's Shampoo (multi worked at till - 2 for £2 - 1.25 on sel)
    1 x banana
    1 pint milk
    1 x 250 value straws
    1 x schwartz five spice shake
    2 x whoopsie bakery items.

    Am I missing something obvious, I know the johnson's count as 1 item (although on the receipt they say "baby accessory"), and the whoopsie bakery ones don't count but I still make that enough items to compare?:mad:

    Thanks to the ops today anyway, and my pizza shops were all fine.

    TC doesn't show on APG so can't count as one of your items. Not really sure the straws would have counted or not

    I got the same eggs though and mine worked. Sorry yours didn't

    Dont take your old dress with you. Just buy the same dress, then walk round to the returns and return it with the old receipt. HTH.

    That's providing they have it in store though - not likely because they don't keep much stock in of that type of dress :o

    tc egg and whoosies won't appear leaving 8 items, are the straws comparable :think:

    you could try using 'receipt upload' on asda.com, see if anything is missing from the basket / unavailable to order.

    Sorry about this - you have 7 different items:(. TC egg does not count. Straws are a non-grocery item, and the whoopsie items appear as "Reduced" on your receipt so neither of them count either:(.

    Not sure if straws compare and was one of the eggs a trigger ?
