    Quick question about using APG please when using them in store is there a £10 threshold then a supervisor gets called. I have one for £14 but a big worried using it! Havnt done a shop using one for a long time. 😂

    I did my first gift set shop today and now have an apg for £22.95:eek: Never had one for over £20 before. I might have to get emerald to spend it for me :D

    However, I was logged into the wrong account when checking the £11.54 and it said I had exceeded by monthly limit so only gave me £3+. Is there anyway of getting the full amount? If I hold it till next month perhaps?

    Dayshift will give you a better reply than I can, but I sure you can use one for under £20 at a self service till.

    only if you know how to input it yourself, as nearly all stores the apg dont scan and calls for help

    My local store only has the pink ones, but hoping further afield one tomorrow has the nude ones

    If you are going to P, they had some on Monday (I left a few). They are beige on the box but APG sees Nude;)

    Don't think so, I have done it a couple of times and there seems no escape, even leaving until the next month:(

    Painful isn't it?
