Quick padster update!

I have a bid on one of my items I listed last night and loads of watchers :T.

I also got £18.50 in Tesco clubcard vouchers today - there was a thingy in it about getting double value on clothes, wine and I think maybe beauty stuff - haven't read it properly yet though.

Only need another 55p for £10 on valued opinions.
Haven't had enough points for any Amazon vouchers for ages - last lot went on full set of Star Wars DVDs for OH's birthday - my favourite price is FREE :rotfl:

:T On your Tesco vouchers. I had £15.50 this quater
Decided i had better add up the vouchers that i already had,which was £62. So i figured that £77.50 x 4 = £310 :j Guess where everyones gifts are coming from this year ? :rotfl: Shame they dont do craft stores

Just need to add up everywhere else now

I could never figure out all this deals business, I had £16.60 worth of vouchers back in Feb. They were just stuck in my purse but I sent Rainmac a PM and she explained them to me (Thankyou!!) and I spent £5 last night which will take me, OH and the kids to beamish wild which is a bird of prey centre ... the kids will love it and so will I .... I know I shouldn't have spent them just on us but I figured we deserved it after the last couple of crap months. I still have some left and OH has said we can start regularly shopping at tescos

If it has a number 1 on it then it should be a prepaid envelope, if you do go to the post office just ask them if it is prepaid or if you need to put postage on it, it's not a dumb question at all, things like this always confuse me like mad! they should just write on it postage paid ... or better still scrap all postage costs lol

Thanks Choccy I am trying to keep it a secret from DS as he will be so excited ..... I am lucky I don't need any rac cover or anything cause I am a qualified mechanic and OH knows his way round cars aswell so neither of us bother now. I plan to buy a ticked for hobbycrafts in Nov with tesco vouchers, but didn't want to do it this time incase I did something wrong or screwed something up, plus I only have £5.50 vouchers nothing smaller and didn't know it gave change :rotfl: See told you I was still learning

Oooh yes if you bought a ticket with the £5.50 voucher. All they do is re credit your account with the £3.00 next time you get your vouchers

Dad was a mechanic, ao does anything i need doing, just didnt want son to get stuck here there and everywhere.
