    On what grounds M'aam ;)
    On the grounds that not ALL European cities have a problem with pickpockets. I have just recently visited one where this isnt the case ;) Objection upheld I presume? :D
    (Infact, I think I also live inone where they are not prolific either)

    So most, not ALL then ;):p

    Edit to add: I never needed a bloody wallet that could be pick-pocketed until this darn country decided plastic notes would be a good idea!

    Why did this happen?

    Shopping came to £3.60 and I handed over an APG for £3.39 which was immediately voided for some reason. £2.87 then came off the total

    I didn!!!8217;t argue obviously. Just paid up. I got a lot of food for 73p:D

    You are only showing a 1/3rd of your shop
    And you give us a puzzle.
    Happened to me last week which was the 1st time in ages. I think it does it when it thinks a certain amount of your shop does
    Not qualify. Eg 73p
    Happens to me when I used to buy pre packed kippers sold by weight. Took some of that value off.

    Ps. Have you checked it for an apg. As any Multibuys may produce one
