    My order seemed to have gone through first time and I received the confirmation email within about 5 minutes. Appeared to be no problems at all. All I need to find now cheap is the flexi hose to reach all those little places where little ones find to put crumbs etc that you cannot get to (although it would probably clog up the hoover if I ever did manage to properly clean out the three piece suite!!!)

    For those getting the error messages, I nearly gave up - had error messages and 'out of stock' messages repeatedly, hence the whoops of delight when it finally went through. Thanks also to those who said to keep trying (I tried at least 20 times - and no I'm not exagerating!!)
    January '06 Grocery Challenge (4th - 31st) £320.

    Someone burst my bubble and I lost the plot so no idea what I spent now... :(I will try to work it out.

    I think it's time to be realistic.

    Tesco probably had a few of these to clear, perhaps a couple of hundred. This thread has had over 6,500 views. If half the viewers ordered just one (and we know some would have tried to order hundreds) they would have been out of stock fifteen times over.

    None of us really wanted one of these; we just wanted a bargain that we could resell, give as a gift(?) or find a use for.

    So please don't go to bed feeling hard done by, there will be many more "something for nothing" opportunities but only a very small percentage of us will benefit on each one.
    Can I help?

    Yes, but I really wanted one!! :p (since I saw this)... but you're totally right and we shouldn't get serious about it..

    It'll just be entertaining to see who and who doesn't get one (or a hundred :mad: )
