    down with a cold and went to usual hated store, needed daily items and couldn't bear extra driving, so quick in quick out, grabbed a few hb hc items on the way and tried my luck, in a numb mood as one always do when feeling ill. prepared to dump everything apart from essentials when in trouble. sa scanned everything but some £1 hb and 50 pts rejected by till machine. no energy to figure out why. another sa waiting to change shift told off happy scanner for accepting too many coupons :mad:, one told her i bought 4 of these, look! stared at her with big bloody eyes :eek:, she mumbled all right with head down all blushed... one must looked either scary or authoritative when feeling ill :D, maybe it was the numb/ p*** off mood replaced the fear worry ones. feeling empowered by illness and fearless, confidently handed over a coupon of mocs, all accepted. got 2 slimfast 4 plax 8 wipes milk and dinner for a few quid. happy as bunny. :rotfl:

    is there anyone on slimfast? it creates too much wind to a health and safety work environment :eek:, apology for being graphical. does it happen to others? i only got 4 tins maybe i should stop if that's a normal side effect. need to find something else for hc, got enough multivitamin, don't want chewable omega (yuck), no idea what to get, any suggestion?

    I bought 2 x Slimfast bars on BOGOF, 2 x Chapsticks [2 for £1] and a packet of Tesco Ibuprofen. Used 2 x £1 Healthcare and 1 x Quit Healthcare - 29p to pay.

    Just back from a last minute holiday and slowly working through the many, many pages written over the last week. Can't get out until the weekend, but has anyone seen any H&B or SB in any Camb stores recently?

    How many of the 50 point coupons can I use on 2xPlax + 2xColgate toothbrushes? Both are on BOGOF, so 5.45 to pay before using coupons.

    Thanks! Would it make a difference if I bought some additional toiletry products then?
