    Not for me or any family though Agave has re-appeared on one of their CoS accounts as an Exclusive for You which was only claimed last weekend. Did you mean CS for Cider? On my CS the end date has extended but I have already claimed :(.

    CoS is a better app as it is easier to see when you have claimed, whereas CS you have to check on the website which is a faff.

    Both Blind Pig and Optiwell show on the website that I can claim again on CS. Very odd but I am not complaining! I agree it is a faff!

    Hipp and soup shop with the things I needed as fillers

    original total £12.57
    min us brand guarantee £1.98
    minus 5 for £3 soup offer
    minus £6 Hipp MOC
    min us £1.50 soup MOC

    final total £1.14 :j

    Hipps went straight into the food bank trolley.

    Bleach is cheaper in B&M but every time I go in there I see extra bits and end up spending more than I should - last time I went for firelights 2 boxes for £2 and ended up with 3 cushions for £3 so I ended up spending £5 instead of £2 :D

    The parsnip soup is very nice, just wondering now what I could jazz it up a bit with

    Went to S and got 2 lots of £10 petrol and a £10 shop = 3500 points so am happy with that. When taking my shopping back to the car, saw a rat running round:eek::eek::eek::eek: . Don't think I want to go there again :o

    Our little Coop has been closed for about a year cos rats were seen running along the shelves :eek::eek: I always thought it smelt when you went in there...

    So 1,000 pts = £5

    So 60,000 = 60 x £5 = £300

    Impressed
    Not quite right I'm afraid

    60,000 points =£30 Still very good

    Felt as if I was in a parallel universe in S this morning. Went in with vouchers which worked together and gave me 1000 points when I spent £20 -- found a lovely jumper in my colours which definitely fits! Voucher for 1000 points so if I can double up, that will be free. Also 200 extra points wys £10. Would be rude not to go in again...

    Then to petrol. Spent £40. Ended up with another 5,500 points.

    So I spent £60 and got 7,500 points, plus bonus points for swiping the right number of times should happen. Even if I don't manage to double up, that is not to be sneezed at! Does S know what it is doing?!
