    I think my sister had this "pre-op assessment" thing about a week before .... so maybe new date???

    Nope no new date but the pre op lasts for three months so they said to still go.

    Yesterday I bought 2o small tins of beans plus 1 large just to see could you exceed the 20 at 11am. Today I wentbto a different store at about 8am and bought 18 small and 20 large all correct points added 300 per tin.

    Afternoon all.

    I did a 10 can bean shop and went through a manned till but only 15 points went on. I went to CS and the chap started writing on the sheet - its only a small store so points have to be added manually.
    Then he asked where Id seen the offer advertised and I pointed to the beans section not 2 feet from him with a big banner sign.
    So a manager came and they both investigated. They were not sure if beans were in the offer so I pointed at the picture of beans.
    They said they had no idea how many cans you need to buy so I said to look on their website.
    He looked and agreed 300 points per can on beans.
    Then he conceeded and added on my 3000 points - mind you they not coming out of the shopping bag until I see the points online in a day or 2 and if not I will be messaging e Morribobs webpage

    I went in looking for the signs and i was prepared to stand my grounds, as politley as possible :D

    Manager was removing the sign as I left :(
