    Thank you. It is a surprise that it worked and I wouldn't suggest it as a normal approach though - their system normally rejects the same receipt being submitted to the same account on CoS (resubmitting if you missed something) and used to reject if putting the same receipt into CS and CoS. This one may have slipped through.

    It can be stressful enough keeping track of shopping and uploading receipts with busy lives - I think I will stick with separate receipts otherwise Suman bound to mess up or get caught out knowing my recent performance.

    It's worked 3 times for me now, obviously with completely different items but on same receipts.
    Useful for the bottle multibuys though.

    I think sometimes you just get lucky with receipts uploaded to CS and COS - possibly the vague descriptions on Asda and Mr T receipts do work in our favour sometimes.

    On GJs there were mushrooms a week or so back and I could not be sure which version of mushrooms but I had A receipts with mushrooms and they were accepted :T
    But this week my Sainsburys receipt has string beans on and there was dwarf beans on GJs - not even sure if they are the same but this time the receipt got a reject :(

    I know people who have had reduced items accepted on COS but my receipt with a RTC was rejected and when I queried it they said reduced items are not allowed and when I checked yes there it was in the rules and regs :(

    I depends on your own personal level of risk - that and luck and a following wind :)

    I have the opposite problem in that my DH NEVER helps himself to anything at all ! He only ever eats stuff I give him or ask him' would you like/do you fancy ...?'. I have a shelf full of his favourite Mullers (got especially for him and flavours that I don't much like) but he never thinks to have one unless I suggest it. Asking him what he fancies for dinner is a waste of time as he just says he doesn't mind. Its odd because he really enjoys his food, loves chocolate, cheddars etc with his whisky, cakes etc and is really easy to cook for- I think he has just got so used to being waited on hand foot and finger that he would starve if I wasn't here !

    :eek::eek: Are you married to my OH? He won't help himself either (except his specific things), and I just get so tired of him not minding what we have for dinner! How are we supposed to come up with all the ideas:eek:

    How have people got teams on COS, is it just pot luck, or did you have to click somewhere?

    I put a receipt in from Tesco yesterday on gj
    I noticed today that I had it set on waitrose. Say accepted with waitrose as the title. But when you look at receipt it's clearly tesco.

    Afternoon all.

    Sorry couldnt write anything yesterday was just so upset.

    Vets called yesterday and said Harley was doing well and was standing with a little help, I think I just thought all was going to be ok when I saw him last night, that wasnt the case at all.

    Harleys leg was still bent wrong with back paw facing upwards and dragging and then going underneath his body when standing, and his front leg going off aswell.

    He can only stand with help, its going to be a long haul, about 3 months until he can walk unaided they have said. He is a big dog, weighs 36kilos.

    He cant get up on his own, and probably wont for another week or so.

    Im seeing the physio tomorrow so they can show me everything I have got to do.

    I'm so sorry to hear that, it's horrible when your pets aren't well. They can't tell you what's wrong, and you can't explain things to them.
