Not sure what we're doing today yet, still thinking of the cinema but not sure.... just done some washing so just about to chuck that out on the line, hope it doesn't rain.
Have to go to Asda today to get some wine for tonight.... so no chance of a NSD today.
Have a good w/end everyone.
ps - I received some luncheon vouchers in the post as I did a survery for a company that I was referred to, thanks... you know who you are xx"Nobody made a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could only do a little." Edmund Burke

Have a look on the back, it shows you where you can spend them, am sure I've used them in Asda before, don't see why they'd worry about what you're buying? :rolleyes: Could always try and then pay cash if you have to?
