    for those playing with the coke glitch, why both going over to Sains to get the coke. i know you get brand match but for the tiny bit extra is it worth it.

    I buy 4 reg coke and 4 zero coke a time and use 4 labels so paying £1 for 8 bottles of coke plus get 4 more fresh labels to redo the offer. Yes my initial out lay has been £4 to buy the 4 bottles of reg coke at the start. But when you factor in the time and fuel to go else where is it worth it.

    My only issue is what o do with the reg coke as i prefer diet.
    Well if you live where I live, A and S are across the road from each other :D I'm not buying regular Coke though, it's bad for your teeth and makes you fat.

    At the end of February I ordered a Lenovo all in one computer online from PC world and collected it instore.

    Its windows 10 which is a big jump for me as I have been using Vista and also an iPad and I took it in to my local computer shop (to a guy I have used for years and who is extremely good with computers) and got him to set it up for me, install various programs such as Office etc and generally get it running as I wanted it.

    All worked well for a few days and then it started playing up - freezing completely several times a day. Took it back to local guy who did a system restore and re-installed all my extra bits - he thought the problem was caused by a rather large Windows update not installing properly.



    Again, all worked well for a few more days - and now the B***** thing has started to freeze again ! The only way to get it going is to pull the plug and then re-start it.

    I want to take it back to PC World and get a refund as it just isn't working and there appears to be some basic in-built problem. I can't see that it can be fixed by doing another restore as it didn't work for long last time and I'm really not satisfied that the computer is fit for purpose. I'm out of pocket anyway because I obviously paid the local guy to set it all up.

    I reckon PC World will not be too happy to do a refund and am wondering exactly what I have the right to insist on. Its not a month old yet and the troubles started a couple of weeks ago.

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    id never buy another lenovo
    if you open task manager, i bet its running at 100% which is why its freezing. microsoft edge takes up a huge amount of cpu
    i close the program and see what happens when its running twice. alternatively try closing ie as i call it. and surf using google chrome

    COT I owe you an apology :o:o:o I have to confess to shopping in Ts yesterday and buying Coke with free Coke Zero labels and knowing it was n/a. no excuses except not firing on all cylinders and skipping. I felt guilty when I saw your post earlier and I'm sorry :o

    Don't shoot me. :o

    Please could someone tell me what happens when you click to get Caf! Nero code on nectar, nothing seems to happen for me done it twice now. No points been taken off my nectar balance or any email. :o
    I've just got one. You have to click through to the offer page then select 'get voucher code', then select it again, then select the quantity you want and then checkout securely, then agree t&cs. Vouchers are valid until the end of May this year, although this is contradicted in the t&cs which say voucher codes are valid for a minimum of 12 months. At this stage, for security they email you a 6-digit number that you have to enter on screen and then finally your voucher code is displayed on screen and also emailed to you. Now I just have to find Cafe Nero to use my voucher!

    I know it's a little steep:eek:, but I have Olay Classic Beauty Fluid (200ml) at 2 for £10 in M - I can only see 100ml online and, any way that would appear to be bought, that appears to work out more expensive. Except perhaps if it could be one of your chosen offers on a Waitrose card? However, I am not a Waitrose expert so I don't know. Hope this information helps!

    Offer on 200ml was seen in an M last week and I'm sorry I'm only just getting to this now - so, don't make a special trip, because I am not seeing it everywhere!

    Hi, Just waiting for DS1 to get in from a night out.... the joys of having children home ftom uni....

    Anyway, my email ftom T's BG has come through with the failed Faustino shop.
    All of the items appeared on the receipt and it provided a BG of £5 on the wine. No idea why it wasn't deducted at the till, but there is a link to a voucher, just like the old PP system.
    So it is definitely worth checking failed BG shops online :)
    OH got a refund on the wine though, so I suppose I shouldn't print the voucher......

    M list now has new items - do have a look - that of course are not new items but have been waiting for months or years until I happened to come to your store to see them. And they'll still be more around elsewhere:eek::rotfl:.

    There's maybe a few more to add later on as I am working my way through and get to them:). I haven't really started to look at the wines - that'll be a 'special project' for later again - obviously I miss the most vital thing:rotfl::(. I've looked at just one of them and checked msm to see initially if T has it - some Weight Watchers Rose wine at £6 T vs £5.50 M:(. Hardly any good at all - but I may start off a list of all wines I have that have 'cheaper than T' M prices whether good or rubbish just for completeness.

    The M list itself is becoming sometimes not necessarily the 'best value' of every item that it once aimed to be - but some, especially if they are not on msm/m.com, are really there for you to see (depending on what you need to buy) and consider whether or not you think the price is worth it - I'm basically having to just put items onto the list that I find and can't literally check every one of them to see if the price is really very good or not (beyond a quick check of msm - and sometimes going to the other (competitor) sides of msm as well to see if they've ever had a lower price showing on there than M now is - or if M has been cheaper before). So, items are just going onto the list, sometimes, at the prices I find (which obviously must have been (allegedly) 'cheap' enough for me to note them in the first place) - but then some items I take, I soon find later that the M price is way too high and some competitor on msm is way cheaper! Those items obviously don't make the list - and occasionally I mention in separate posting, ad hoc, that T is cheaper on this etc... Of course, you may find some items on the M list are not in your M store at all - and are also not apparently in alternative M nearby that may also be available to you:(. But it's there and you may find them. The items that really go onto the list without ability to do detailed checks - otherwise I'd be spending ages searching around everywhere to see if there was a better price somewhere else - obviously I can't do that legwork for you (why not Savvy? why not?:p:mad::rotfl::rotfl:) - are the ones that are not on msm/m.com. That might be :doh:because they are (mostly) only in certain stores. (In other words, if something isn't necessarily best value from my opinion and I find it on msm, I don't bother with it - it's on there for you to see. If it's not on msm however, then I will likely add it. I particularly don't tend to add items that are on msm and where A and M are useless pricematched at the time of my checking however. HTH.)

    I'll see you later:):wave:.
