    Good morning all...

    I have a £25 apg to use soon....so am taking a trip to buy some wine and beer for christmas....I'll be happier once its gone so its just a case of killing it off on 6 bottles in the £25 deal and 3 cases of something for £21 job done

    The APG originated at not the store I intend to use it at...so we will see if that comes back as an excuse not to accept or not,like Em and Nellie had yesterday!

    Have a good day all....

    I'm sure that yours will be accepted without any problem LEJC. It was em that was trying to spend them. It was in an Asda living and the daft thing was em had already used one downstairs but they wouldn't accept one upstairs in the same store :think:

    that's true - I wonder if its an old MOC and Asda is a new supplier. I will message them and see what they think.


    I'm pretty sure that you could only buy the stuff in H&b and W before...so I think all the other retailers are new suppliers this time round....

    for me that will no doubt mean it won't be stocked for weeks in A or S and miraculously will appear when all CS offers have gone!

    Morning everyone.
    I am not sure about Howards End either. I will watch another episode then decide. Just a quick question can you only double up once in each department in Sainsburys? Have a good day.

    According to the T & Cs you can only double up once in each department but in reality you can do more than one. I just make sure I go to a different SA at customer service or do them on different days. You can only spend one double up for each department at a time though. I have doubled up on homeware yesterday and today without any problem.

    I'm going to front it out Nellie...I usually do ...but I've never gone over the magic £20 before let alone £25....

    Whats the betting that they dont even bat an eyelid....that what usually happens when I anticipate a problem.

    Another one here not enjoying Howard's End .....

    It seemed a bit wishy washy to me - couldn't really gel with any of the characters.

    reply from Oppo

    "our coupons can't be used in Asda. However, we're on promotion with them currently, so go and try us quickly ;)"

    I was hoping that they would say that the MOC would be updated, newer version with Asda on :mad:

    so its a NO from me then and I don't need to play genga in the dessert section of the freezer to get more ice cream in :(

    Alcohol sets - NOT SHOWING YET ON A.COM

    Might be a bit early to test from M's - when do they collect the prices?
    I say "THANKS" to posts that make me smile - Oh and really good glitches.:j

    T's have all the selection boxes up to 184g on offer at £1.

    My little T has no notice of restriction regarding numbers per customer that I could see.

    My problem is that for personal use there would be an element of wastage - eg there is a Snickers bar in the Mars box, a pack of M&M peanuts in the M&M box, neither of which I like, and the plasticised chocolate that Cadbury/Kraft now make means that the Cadbury one is less than desirable.

    Otherwise they are a bargain.
