Thank you...As I'm new in this and still learning, would you try this rejected one again in the different shop?

unlikely your 2nd one was rejected, just needed authorisation as you went above the £20 limit for doing it yourself. so should be fine to try again

I've lost a total of 15 envelopes altogether:( No rhyme or reason that I could see.

I do sometimes get "You can't open any more envelopes" message, but I think that's because I've tried to open them too close together less than 20-30 secs (this is just what I'm guessing, I don't know for sure).

But it still lets me open more after that. I just click on my bank card and count how many transactions I've had that day and get it up to 10.

Some days I struggle to get 10 if I'm not near an SS till!

we didn't do too well today with AP, we only managed to get 1 x 3 m&s voucher. We keep hoping that we may get lucky with a pizza express one!! we have never been and being that theres 6 of us it would make it reasonably priced. Can the £10 dining out vouchers be stacked? we have 2 of those so just wondering if they can be used together x

went shopping again today to use up or should I say refresh my apgs all went well, DD1 birthday tomorrow so hopefully tree up Tuesday!

I always stack my 10 envelopes up and then do them all at the end in one go lol - or should i say the boys take it in turns ha ha!!

It doesn’t mention to thank you for taking part in Double up - not sure if it did last time? Nice reward anyway (and ready for £10 back off the next Double Up ).

I have received and Mrs Anon :cool:.

Those fleece gilets are too snug - I got a 16 last year and I'm a 14.

So I tried an 18 and the arm opening was down by my lower ribs.

This is rather strange, I got a normal fleece, with sleeves, tried them on in there and ended up with a 12 as I do with almost everything else (apart from a lacey jacket from Primark which had to be a 16 :eek: )

What are you doing in A past 4? Are you in Scotland? Or Northern Ireland?

Sweets - I know you mean Curly Wurly chocolates - are vs Sains. Easy if you have the Muller Corner trigger available (Christmas Bakery Gingerbread & Choc Balls).

To be bought with Chomp - there are two versions: the wrong one, that I bought, is packs flashed 30p on them and it gives the correct pricing at the till/SS:(. The other BC is the correct one: no price is stated on the packaging and it gives an overcharge - pay for it and full price 4 Curly Wurlys and then CS desk for 5 for £1 (if it is showing in your store on both products) and £2 GC. If your SELs are not showing the mbuy, then just get the 'wrong' Chomp, the one flashed 30p, which is probably then the right one and the best you can do in your store in that situation: you'll pay 5 for £1, even though not showing on your shelf, and then comp. with full price A on the APG if you have bought everything right.

If you are not in Northern Ireland, there is Curly Wurly vs M (4 plus whichever is the correct Chomp for you). Or, separately, Chomp and 4 Candyland Black Jacks rolls vs M (or you can try 3 Black Jacks and a Refreshers roll if you see if they pick up M mbuy between them - slightly worse due to A's individual price on the Refreshers - or a lot worse if they don't both have the same mbuy in the system for M).
