Please can I ask are there any hand cream experts about this morning.

I am trying to compose a hand cream list but already I am confused. I have so far seen

Mr T v A
A v M

which gives you the + 20p result?

I am swaying towards A v M - I can add in
Blind pig for Shopotize
Maltsmiths in sets of 4 for COS
cow and gate fruit pouch for COS

and which hand cream as I've seen 3 mentioned so far

I think I need to read even further back ...

Can't help with the details but I think then+20p included a cos saving.

Morning everyone:hello:

So, my Trouting. G’tham Store.

I was just leaving the checkout with my shopping (second time around) when a side door opened and out came the Store Manager with her young lad sidekick. “Can we have a word with you sir?” and they took me into a side room. This was the same duo that stopped me about 3 months ago and warned me not to return items.

They told me that I have been using a lot of big APG’s and I am abusing the APG system. This was just a warning not to do it again and that I had also been ‘flagged up’ at other Stores too. If I do it again they would call the Police.

I told them that the Police wouldn’t be interested, I am doing nothing illegal. I admitted that I am probably taking advantage of the APG system but that it is their system and I just split up my shops to compare with other Supermarkets.

She repeated that I am abusing the APG system and it must stop. It was just about 3 minutes, polite but firm conversation. She also said that A are aware that 'some other people' are doing the same.

I am sure that with face-recognition software it probably is possible for Stores to share this information but I am sure she was bluffing. She would have seen from APG’s used that they were sometimes from other Stores.

I will have to lie low a bit for the time being and probably travel further afield – in disguise! I still have three £20+ APG’s to use:eek:;)

Have a good day everyone:)

I would love to see them get the police and media involved. Seeing a spokesperson trying to explain to a journo how whilst they had a price promise, that they didn't actually want customers to benefit from it would be hilarious

Good morning
Yesterday I bought the Nivea Q10 anti age hand cream in Asda and it compared to Morrison’s. I think that this works out better than T v A because of the 3 for 2 but I’m no expert. After the claim from CoS it makes it slightly better than free

I got "interviewed" a few years ago, in Derby. I was doing three shops a day and had amasses nearly a hundred handwashes for nothing.
I wasnt busy so spent half an hour explaining in great detail how useless their system was, and exactly what I was doing, and that head office MUST know. The manager said he didnt think I was "playing the game", I explained that was exactly what I was doing.
At the end he agreed I was doing nothing wrong, and that I wasnt banned, so I bid him good day.
My strategy now is (if stopped) to explain I'm very busy but am available for £10 per half hour or part there of. Starting immediately.

Good Morning all

A reasonable fillerA v M if you use it and if it’s picked up is the stork cup cake mix on COS 80p after apg and c/b. My gc like this type of thing for baking.

catch up later

Pippo. Did you retire recently? I recall a few people did but have no idea who

Glad you had a positive outcome to your visit I am assuming you are now all geared up to helping. So caring. :A
