  • Baffled by the rush for everyone wanting to suddenly print off all of their APGs?

    Asda have told us officially you have until 03/10 to check giving an expiry of 31/10 officially. Unofficially that could be 31/12 if they don't change the current system.

    Secondly, why are you still printing them ? If you're using self-scan you haven't needed to since the manual check stopped and they stopped the requirement to deposit them, nearly 2 years ? now. You only need it on your phone.

    Now I know the odd few dozen here like a good conspiracy theory, but please, suggesting it's been taken out of action purposely or permanently is going a little too far. Patience doesn't seem to be a virtue of many here ;)

    White Toblerones in Tesco £1.50 (had £1.50 SEL)

    360g size, dated 25.07.2019.

    Only one in box, then remembered to look up ;)

    I believe toberlones are being reduced to 300g size, so maybe worth keeping eyes peeled in more than Tesco

    As each day goes by, some folks are losing their APGs, the ones who only print them off after keeping them for however many days after checking them.

    I believe it was up to 90 days ? ?

    Hi tweets, sorry things are bad for mum, I would ask them ,insist actually, that she has a urine test for a UTI, her behaviour could all be down to that and if it is a course of antibiotics would solve it :)

    i use 5-7 every time i shop at self service. to scan 2 bar codes x 7 is very quick. thats why i print them. also i can not see the point in keeping them for 3 months as id of had hundreds more by then. so i use them as i get them. often putting money onto a gift card.

    Same situation as me, we must be of a like age. I feel robbed. (actually we have been)

    I will join you. I will be 66 yrs and 7 months before I get my pension

    Friend got hers at 62. Would not have minded a small delay but almost 7 years is ridiculous
