    I tried that and it wouldn't let me order a voucher and when I logged back in to try again it said I was already a member:mad:. I hate not getting my freebies, I ordered a toblerone one which hasn't arrived yet either:rolleyes:

    That's weird. I tried it at work last week I think and then discovered you need to download software or something to print the voucher (which I can't do at work), but then I don't have a printer at home, so I gave up on it. Then read on a thread today that you can opt to have the voucher posted to you. I expected it to come up saying that I'd already registered, but it still let me do it.

    My Toblerone Tobelle hasn't arrived yet either. Nothing :mad:
    Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending

    5 weeks to Christmas!!!!:T:T:T
    I have fallen off the MSE wagon in a big way...i have been spending like mad due to the grabbit board and "specials" and "discounts" I have started using quidco so that will help a little bit but i have ended up buying pressies for my family who i swore i wouldn't get anything for and none for the people i do have on my list :mad::mad::mad: I'm thinking if any of them p*ss me off before xmas (and they will!) i'll just put the stuff back on ebay!!! (did it last year and boy did it feel good...yes i am a big fat nasty nasty coo...:o)

    P.s. i'm not getting any of the freebies i should be either not sure who to suspect:confused:

    Hello all :D It's weird with the whole missing-freebies thing but it could have something to do with the postal strikes and mail being delayed/mislaid...

    Hey y'all

    I've got (and drunk) my mini baileys but no sign of Toblerone yet...

    However I tried the Milka thing last weekend, before it was on Martins email and I downloaded the special coupon software but it didn't print - so I went through it again and tried to do it and it said I'd registered already. I did email them but not heard anything and not expecting too much......
    I've got my own flat :j:j

    Now I have to pay the bills :eek:

    And feed my interiors addiction ;)

    I've never bothered to send off for freebies, I really should start checking out that board...

    You really should, it's nice when freebies arrive:D However, it is very annoying when they don't:mad:

    Have had 2 freebies today, a voucher for 50p off plasters:rolleyes: and 2 nasal strips to help you breathe easily at night:rolleyes:, neither of which I ordered.

    I think I am definitely poorly as I didn't go into work and managed to sleep for 16 hours:eek: last night. Was most shocked to wake up and discover it was the afternoon. I am feeling okay now so I think it was just one of those 24 hour things. Am quite surprised though as I am hardly ever ill.

    In other news today I have booked tickets to go to the Strictly Come Dancing tour and scoffed an entire chocolate orange.

    Well done Sarah, lots of Vit C in oranges which is good for illnesses so think how much is in a whole choc orange.

    I'm currently watching Mad About the House on BBC3 in which the girlfriend has moved out for 3 weeks and left her boyfriend to decorate the house (they've given him £10k).

    She loves Shabby chic and place was full of cute cushions, knick nacks and lots of clutter. Her ideal is country cottage style.

    He's painted her stripped floors black, her bedroom brown and the downstairs is all grey. He's turned it into a massive bachelor pad.

    She completely loves it but he is soooooo lucky.

    This is a great show to be like 'thank god I'm single' - aargh.

    I would kill any boyfriend that did up my flat and made it completely away from my taste!

    Hello my lovelies,

    My working week is now over & I shall be celebrating within minutes,

    I've eaten loads today but all for a good cause - blood donation - & it actually helped, I'm usually there for hours having iron levels tested, they dig about with large needle to find a vein & then each drop has to be squeeezed out & all I get is enormous bruising for my efforts :( . Today my iron levels were fine, & the bag was full in 4.37 minutes & no bruising whatsoever :D.

    I also 'donated' £443.34p :cry: to the garage for a full service & the new cambelt. Nice mechanic assured me it's good for another 60,000 miles or 6 years.

    Best go & update my sig now :rolleyes: & pour large glass of something pinkish.

    Glad to hear you're feeling better now sarah.

    Makeup - am so with you on the whole homesharing & decorating ... would go ballistic if someone did that to me. I am not designed for sharing accommodation unless its a large castle type thing where I could have my own wing :o
