    Dear heavens. Like HP I'm venturing to the scary east coast to talk to car dealerships next week. Reckon 10 in a day is feasible, or will it take 2 days?

    Picked up an underground sandwich for lunch at least - there's one near a car place.

    Things I wish I owned:satnav, a netbook

    Pleased to say that my willingness to put myself out to rectify a mistake (hey, on the Fort and the Forge shopping centres are easily confused. Especially if you've never been to the Fort) I made for another company has paid of. Email today asking if I could do things next week.

    Question about the home shopping on RE - it says it has to be your local store, but I live in the middle of two stores. The closest one (by about half a mile) isn't the one that I would consider to be my "local" but I've chosen that one as it's first on the list.

    Anyone know if I can check which store my delivery will come from? Or is it a simple case of the closest store gets it? The closest one to me is the other side of the city, whereas the other is on the outskirst so no negotiating of the city traffic.

    The notes say if it's not your local store (for the delivery scenario) you wont be reimbursed. I have the same query, there's 0.1 miles in it between which is my local store! The slightly nearer one hasn't appeared though, so I'm not chancing it.

    Slid down the hill and did my first egg shop.

    No eggs! Have mentioned this in one of the comments field. Do you think I'll still get my full £3 reimbursement? Spent just over £4 but no eggs.
    Not my fault if they aren't getting all their deliveries and the town's panic buying.

    If anyone else has supermarket jobs & hasn't had a home delivery from them - £5 cashback on quidco :)

    I'll be on mysupermarket.com later looking for bargains to stock up on :)
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    you are assessing store nearest to you, so if you have ordered 3 then the same store will deliver to you all 3 times thereby making you job invalid = no money. be careful
