I bought Corners today and think I was getting mixed up with another store. No new tills for us.

I have not got new tills in my asda. Just updated ones.

Super trouting in T Hatfield this evening. 6 rustlers in the trolley with 6 vouchers. Saw an empty checkout and went to it without thinking older guy may be a jobsworth and he read the details, one per purchase. Called over cs manager to help him remove the burgers.

Back into store, picked up some more extras so no negative final bill, went to self-check, polite younger Cs came over to do vouchers and trout cs manager runs (we'll as close to running as she can do) over and tells Cs that on no account must she put them all through on one transaction.

Just accepted the loss in the end, last night for the vouchers, could have gone to mr m and tried them against 3 for £5 but they are often oos.

If you are the owner of the car, they have to prove that you were driving it at the time. If not, then you can say that you weren't sure who was driving when it was parked. The onus is on them to find out. There are several templates on MSE to help you to do this.

Perhaps she isn't the owner. But was the one driving it;)

I was about to say never heard of it but actually I was there a month or two ago when we were having the super blue moon and DS's scout troop went for a visit to the observatory and remarkably it was a clear evening - looks a wonderful place to study, very different from the rest of UH that now has such a big modern campus very convenient for Aldi and Mr A

I hope so, dates on produce have always been superfluous, in fact I can't recall seeing dates on Lidl/Aldi produce in a long time.

I personally do not look at the dates, I go by how it looks, how it feels and how it smells.

Case in point - cheese lasts a lot longer than it says on the package, I know it lasts at least another year. I was almost in hysterics one time when I was buying brie in October off the deli counter in Ts, I said in passing that it should be just about right for Christmas, the SA was almost apoplectic, she said it would have gone off by then and be far too soft! I normally buy brie at least a pack in advance, it needs to be past it's date before it is ready :eek:

We agree with everything you are saying but you are wrong - your argument exactly explains why the products need store 'best before' dates so that the customer can benefit from a yellow sticker.


I am worried that Mr T dropping Brand Match will be just the excuse Mr A needs to get rid of the 10% cheaper comparison - could it be the end of the glitch as we know it? :eek:
