    I should be on my way to work (and I really shouldn't be on here) but I've only just got out of the shower! :whistle: :rotfl:


    I'm in a similar situation, I'm at work, but should be working - lol

    ............actually I can, perhaps :confused: Have you checked your tax code recently, or applied for the taxman to check for any overpayments?

    I just discovered to day I'm on the wrong tax code so may get a little refund at some point.........AND my 'overpayment' from the Childrens Tax Credit may not be AS huge now either :j Can you believe they are paying themselves back £10 per week to pay it off! :eek:

    Sorry SS...couldn't help myself!

    On a constructive note (for a change) I bet those blades are cheaper in Wilkos, Superdrug, Savers, etc. Have you got time to shop around? You could get a refund on the others then.

    Or if they're not cheaper, get them refunded anyway, and then go buy another pack and use your voucher!
