Hi guys

I noticed a couple of people have said both here and elsewhere on the forum that they've not received their sticker yet.

The stickers are normally sent out in batches every couple of weeks and I remember seeing a pile of SAEs on the desk on Wednesday so I think there'll be some being sent soon. I'll check tomorrow with the person who does them, how up to date we are with sending them out and get back to you

The car sticker is a fun way to support the site (and there's no need for two A4s, you can post the second a4 envelope within one of any size) and we'd welcome anyone who wants to get one. But please no body feel obliged.

Sorry if this is in the wrong place but it must be about 2 months ago now i sent off for my car sticker and I haven't received it.

Yes it had a S.A.E. inside to send my sticker back to me.


Martin where's my car sticker?



Life is about give and take, if you can't give why should you take?

Please see andreas note above - i will check the score on the car stickers and see whether we're due to send a batch out. Two months seems too long, so I do hope we received the envelope.

Hi everyone

We're completely up to date on sending these out but apparently we quite often get envelopes with no SAE in them or the wrong postage so if you're sending off for one please double check you're following the instructions in the first post on the thread

clammuk, Paparika and Geddes please check your private messages

good idea though probably not allowed due to potential mis-use of logo or something

Question Window sticker or bumper sticker?

Is this a window sticker or a bumper sticker.
I can't put a bumper sticker on my Motability car.
I can put a window sticker on it as that is easily removed.
Thanks






(not actual size, it is actually about A4 in length)


THERE ARE STILL PLENTY OF STICKERS AVAILABLE.
THIS NOTICE WILL BE CHANGED IF THEY'RE EVER CLOSE TO RUNNING OUT.

A4 envelope needs to be a 52p stamp (if first class 42p otherwise - though do fold the envelope to get it to me and send that with a cheaper stamp ).

[/quote]

CAn ths sticker not be folded to fit in a C5 envelope. as that is covered under the cheaper postage stamp.


What do you do with all the postage stamps on the envelopes we send to you?

AS hubby was a policeman for 28 years I might wait till you get a more legal friendly one. i.e one that does not mention robbing banks.
e.g If you can afford petrol for your car Thank Martin Lewis MoneySavingExpert.com

If it's a paying car park I park in a space as close to the meter as possible so no-one can miss my sticker

In awe I watched the waxing moon ride across the zenith of the heavens like an ambered chariot towards the ebon void of infinite space wherein the tethered belts of Jupiter and Mars hang forever festooned in their orbital majesty. And as I looked at all this I thought...I must put a roof on this lavatory.

Well said, I agree with you and think that comment was highly disingenious too! (not a clue what it means but i get the general idea lol)

There's always one though.
I cant wait for mine, so thanks very much & merry christmas!

Oh, I LOVE the idea of a MSE reusable shopping bag.

Would happily pay for one. They can be sourced & printed for under £1 each.

Any chance this might happen?

I am totally scunnered of getting robbed and would gladly donate to a cab or better still a bus getting the message out, it could all ber done by donations from us who ask the questions to give somthing back for the free advice and when theres enough money in the kitty then go paint the bus.although my bank manager may growl at me i have 3vans and 2 cars i would be happy to put stickers on
