    They have taken the money for Mamma Mia (release date next week) so our copies (one for a friend as well) should be here soon.

    I always use another browser solely for using Quidco which is set as the home page on the other browser. Also if I am using a merchant that I have browsed in Firefox I make sure I clear the cookies here before I use Quidco. Seems to have worked so far have had over £330 in the last 2 years ;)

    What I do is look for what I want then look if it's available throught quidco then log in to the merchant through there. Is that right. Do I have to clear cookies first? I need to get this sorted ready for the great car insurance search which I will start in March.

    What I assume I will do then is check through the comparison sites, then go back and check through quidco WITHOUT going to a saved quote. Will this work... I don't actually shop a lot online...way too scary:rotfl:

    Ahhh - so that's where it's gone! I feel a distinct lack of it here in Soappie Towers this evening but, I have so far:
    • [STRIKE]Put BM on[/STRIKE]
    • [STRIKE]Put WM on[/STRIKE]
    • [STRIKE]Put ham in oven to bake for dinner tonight then there's cold for sandwiches in the week[/STRIKE].
    • [STRIKE]Walk dog (she can't come to this site so that's the lunchtime walk gone, so I need to start doing it in the evening again)[/STRIKE]
    • Do some of the jobs on the list in the living room
    • [STRIKE]Pay electric bill[/STRIKE]
    • Sort out rubbish (bin day tomorrow)
    I really think that vacuuming should be a level 3 task - dusting and watering the houseplants is far easier! :rotfl:

    Justamum... I started off studying wicca, And have taken some of the principals of it into my own dily life. I used to call myself a solitary wiccan, alot of initiated wiccans take offense to it so now i just say i am pagan.

    I'm also a Solitary, SummerMoon and I too just say I'm pagan! Has led to some interesting conversations on the doorstep IYSWIM.
    Have also been asked if I am Jewish (I wear a small silver pentacle). That has led to some interesting (if brief) conversations too!

    Blessed be,

    I got a new kitchen and it took 2 years before i felt it was mine..
    When I first came to live here it was home straight away - in fact I knew when I first came, to visit the work colleague who lived here and her new baby. When she told me she was selling we got her not to put it on the market and bought it privately...and I hadn't seen half the rooms...when I suggested OH leave I dug in...

    I am so frustrated - how do I get a Xmas tree image in here? I've tried copying and pasting/saving image etc - how do you get it into the message?

    Anyway - Monday again - and here I am - Level 1! Vacuuming lounge and hall will be done tomorrow as I have to go to work again in a minute - and it needs doing - leaves keep blowing in everytime the front door opens, and wet feet leave marks on the mat.
    We use the back door;) Welcome to the thread...and hi to all other newbies.

    Toots will tell you that your house didn't get in a mess in a day and it won't get cleaned in one. Follow the lists - don't carry jobs over (as if we would do that:rotfl:) the rooms will come back round.
