Lango, your porridge was expensive....is it the right one for cos?...the 5 sachets? Mine was £1.50 a box. Might not make any difference as with the kettle chips, the receipt might go through even if the wrong product.
Thought this when I checked on mysupermarket, correct product but odd price in this store, been paid £1.50 from COS so email will be sent.0 -

It matters not how much the product is in different stores as it's FREE, however by being more expensive LANGO would have profitted to the tune of £1.11 providing COS pay the difference which they usually do without fuss.0 -

You have to get out of bed before mid-day for it to register anything before lunchtime.

Happened multiple times to me where a store has charged more than COS expected and never had any issues getting the full amount with a quick e-mail. COS payout as norm the price charged in MOST stores, not all.
They can't refuse as they advertise it as FREE without a max price redemption unlike SZ who do give a max price.
When I go to pick up a few tomorrow I'll be hoping the higher price is charged in my store as it will mean for me about 95p profit per box after fillers.0 -

Back from our trip to wales.
I have managed 11, 748 steps today, not bad, considering I have been in a car for 3 hours.

What has been decided about a group??
Pm me your details and I can add you. Set a challenge for tomorrow to do 6 miles
We're just happy to have a home, a family and our health. Whatever else is just added and it fits.

Good evening elite,
Having real trouble trying to use my droid envelope gift cards, the Greggs ones are working fine but the m&s ones won’t go through and the SA don’t seem so know what to do with them, any suggestions or help would be appreciated.
Has anyone seen the wetabix fruit £5 off? Could be good for overage from woopsie o’clock
