    I usually only order online if I have a discount code, today I had a £10 off £50 one so then I cover the delivery charge ;) If you have a look on the discount board there are threads there for codes for all the main supermarkets. I do find its better as I don't add lots of extras and also when I'm short of time its handy but mostly because I have to trek up a ocuple of flights of stairs with my shopping I tend to do a big shop and order all the heavy stuff for a driver to lug up for me ;):D

    Hi Tallgirl, yep I will sort out my update and pm you this afternoon, sorry I forgot all about it :o:o

    Well, today hasn't gone completely to plan, I wanted to get up and get out and do some of the jobs on my list, I got up and got ready then just as I was about to go out ds' friends mum phoned me (the one who's husband left just before christmas), she thinks he's got someone else and is devastated all over again :o Anyway, she wanted to chat about it all and I was on the phone for 2 hours to her :eek: Eventually I went out but haven't done everything I wanted to do. I went to my sisters and then went and did the 2 mystery shops (still need to submit them though). I also went to pc world and had to spend £50 on yet another new laptopcable as the adaptor I bought off ebay has given up already :rolleyes:, so it was time to bite the bullet and get a new one :mad: I did also pop into a couple of charity shops while I was out and picked up a boden jumper and a Hobbs one for a total of £6.50 :T which will be heading towards ebay if they don't fit me.

    I have go a few bits finishing on ebay today and so far they seem to be doing fairly well, will update later once they've finished. Time to update my list ...

    Tesco was booked to deliver between 5-7pm and at 5.05 the doorbell went and its here :T Very impressed with the service tonight :D All unpacked and put away, managed to get a qualifying bet on which will give me a freebie bet later tonight.

    I've got a bit of tidying up done so the plan for the rest of the evening involves a hot bath, a yummy dinner, getting a couple of bits on turbolister ready for the free listing day tomorrow and a fair bit of laptop time :D

    Benben, listings done through TurboLister aren't included in the free listing day - you need to add them to live eBay.
