    Thankyou. Are you a financial advisor by any chance Anon, you are very good :rotfl: xx

    No, just an avid switcher and saver, though rates are now rubbish for most accounts :(.

    I am relying on switching bonuses to boost my returns now :).

    I managed to get OH to S, he put 2 x £10 in and said it was full. I told him to get out of the car and put another £10 in, and watched him. The kick went at £5+, he was ready to give up until I barked at him to continue and fill it up... it easily got to £10.

    The into the shop, one lot of clothing returned, and a few new clothes buy, the lowest till split was 200 points. I think I am £200 up in points. I am keeping some clothes, but the rest are terrible... maybe I should have take more time choosing rather than just checking that it was over a £10!

    lol.

    Blimey, you are rubbish choosing clothes ;). Just wondering how you are going to return it all without drawing attention to yourself - one at a time?

    £5 - £1.40 = 22.5p per can. so yes your right. (max only) however thats a bit steep for an elite. :) but ok if your in need

    Was not going to take part in the Nectar thing but couldnt resist. So popped over ( 5 miles ) to my local and spent £47.00 fuel and £10.51 on shopping for mum. Got £22.50 points and Mums shopping and a full tank petrol. Does double up cover food aswell?

    Many thanks to whoever brought it across. The power of the Elite.

    Last query for Bubbs or Zippy. Packs pepsi on £3.50 each or 2 for £5,00 again at W again but seem to think last time they came out really cheap. Cant remember how much though??

    Iceland have a crate for £6 (someone was buying several in front of me yesterday)... Just realised I had missed Iceland off my list of where I went.

    Do you remeber that random coloured wool? DS still pulls a fce when he comes across his school photo wearing a 'shades of green' home made v - neck jumper:rotfl:


    In the 70's we used to have a strip around the top of the arm.... if you were really posh you had 2!

    I've already returned 7 items.... :D:D:D:D:D

    I have tried everything on, and kept what I would wear (as I hate clothes shopping!)

    I am having a cuppa and will put them in bags with the receipts... DS2 is going to return the ones that I had used a S refund card on... so I will only have one more trip back.
