    So you didnt have any vouchers, and didnt intend paying £3.50 per pie ?
    Bear in mind you could have bought the pies knowing you would get a £3.75 voucher for every pie you bought, 107% return not enough ?
    You're better than the "raving women", but your intention was to get six pies for £2.25, and end up with a voucher for £3.75. Do you like the pies ?

    Haven't tried the pies yet but I'm looking forward to them.

    I really needed to use the vouchers whilst I was there as this T was 20 odd miles away from where I live and I was unlikely to be near again any time soon.

    Comparing at £3 in S and 1 per pie, i'd be buying in bulk if i coud find them. 75p off per pie. Absolutely worth buying several starter pies if you could get them regularly and had to feed them to the birds !

    i got a 10% off card through the post today of any and every shop until early april.
    i wonder if this will stack with the pre offer prices together with my picks.
    would make the prawns and the part boned chicken legs extremely cheap

    I wonder what Locarr got, conditional spends like me or 10% card like you.

    Think I would prefer your offer. :cool:

    YIKES!! I was physically assaulted in Ts this morning:eek:.


    Our two nearest Ts have not stocked the Jiggy pies so last night when OH said that he needed to collect something from argos I volunteered for the job :A(I knew that there was another T nearby).


    I wasn't expecting to find any Jiggy pies so was delighted when lo and behold, there were 8 of them winking at me from the top shelf of the cold cabinet. I decided that I wanted 6 but hadn't quite worked out the logistics of buying :o them. Anyway I thought that leaving them on the shelf was not a good idea and I had 5 in my basket when I heard a loud voice behind me saying to someone else "there they are, there they are". As I reach up for my 6th and last pie I am shoulder barged out of the way, in a manner that would have made a Six Nations Rugby Coach proud, whilst simultaneously being screamed at "leave some for someone else". I managed to steady myself and turn around to find a woman holding the last two Jiggy pies and screaming at me " I know what you're doing! I know what you're doing! it was on the TV this morning. Why have you snatched all the pies" I just stood there open mouthed, Jiggy pie in hand. (picture Ernie, Ted and Trigger if you will:rotfl:)


    Well all this had been witnessed by the store manager or department manager (anyway he was suited and booted :cool: ) who apologised to me and told raving women that I had been there first. The man that had accompanied raving women had quietly walked away, no doubt never to go shopping with her again. Raving women started to calm down and asked him if there were any more out the back. He asked me if I wanted any more and apologised again. I said that it wasn't necessary for him to apologise for someone else's behaviour. Raving loony turned to me and said "Don't worry if there are any more we'll both be able to fill our boots". I just turned and walked away.


    I didn't go too far and Manager came back empty handed. I now had the problem of how to hide my Jiggys whilst paying for them one at a time. I didn't want raving loony finding my trolley and nicking them:eek:. I wandered around the store a little finding other items to go with the Pies and ended up putting clothes on top of them, thus hiding the contents of my trolley from any likely marauders.


    Anyway, in and out of the store 5 more times and all's well that ends well. I'm just so glad that it wasn't my local T. So much for trying to keep a low profile:rotfl:

    :eek: how common and uncouth. Not ladylike behaviour at all. I'm pleased she got nowt !

    Good evening, lovely Elite :wave:

    So jelly reading all of your higgy pie exploits. T's are very rude and only stock two flavours of higgy, meat or chicken. Why can't the voucher be for W, who stock about 9 veggie varieties :(
