    Morning:hello:. I have decided to put nine vouchers onto an account, in case the system is still up tomorrow and any offers are ending. Then I can do an APG shop and claim another voucher on that account. Otherwise, before I go out for my final APG shop, are there any multibuys ending in A today?:rotfl: Unusually my shop is against Sains. They have been very difficult of recent years due to their Basics range becoming generally expensive. Mind you, T became nearly as bad of late, no longer having items, changing to non-comparable ranges:mad: and putting prices of several 'Everyday Value' items (where they still have them) up. At least I can now use SP Cola as a filler against Sains. and get the 'best' available comp. as it fails to compate against M and T no longer have it on their website:p.

    My favourite glitch will have to be the Curly Wurlys, as I am going to do a final shop with them and this time I will get it right. M was triggering a lot of wombles lately but mine have been a few more against S than they were a few weeks ago. Late afternoon yesterday I managed to find more wombles than I have usually found when going out on a Monday (I have rarely done so of late as there are usually very few but I only happened to be at A) - however some of them weren't good at whoopsie time as I picked up seven receipts that turned out to be worthless:(. Although future receipts were all be worthless soon. In fact, I seem to be wombling T and S receipts from my A car parks. I've had a couple of those recently and one with over 60 points at S. I like it when their receipts has bonus points. It's a win-win situation as far as I see, as I have the points without having to spend many pounds for just a few pounds back and it stops them from tracking my shopping habits and targetting me with offers on products I like that see me being tempted and spending more money. Anything that messes up things up and prevents shops from knowing more about me than I know about myself has to be a good thing. It's still a slow process, but not as slow as otherwise, as I am now limping towards my next 500 points that I stand almost no chance of reaching (I am not spending anything more than the points value to reach there and don't like spending stuff for points of the same value). The Virgin offers have been fine, but whilst a nice extra 1000 points, uselessly in a way that they are a multiple of 500 as they don't get rid of any excess points I already have under that and turn them into a 500.

    £1 and 10p for me today. Quidco running total is £1.30 + 1 PDE.

    As a premium member I once got a payout from quidco when the retailer was denying the cashback. Quidco said they cover it for premiums in certain cases.
    Can anyone help with the second answer please? I'm rubbish at anagrams :o

    Morning all,
    With the PAGS coming to an end I think it's fitting to recall some of the great glitches.
    I'll start the ball rolling with the Cobra beer glitching against Morries,
    What a Xmas that was.:rotfl:

    Oh I did like that one, once I worked out what 'snakes' were!

    We had so much of it OH gave a case to the bin men!

    I liked the 'Big Birds' large Dove shower gel - have been using it ever since and still have a few left.
