Hi Sarah191979

Why did dell want to charge you was it out of warrenty? Mine the same, but it broke down the day after the warrenty finished. :-(

I been out today 1st time in a week, I `ve had a cold bug. Nothing in the shops for me to buy. No bargains, dont know what I`d call a bargain with everything so cheap on the grabbit board.

Rufus, gets those drugs down you and a whisky...

Come on the next challenge we want you

On a positive note, i got a £5 amazon voucher from lightspeed, so my amazon account off and running..

Come on girls and (guys)?? you can do it, get those reviews in, come on ebayers. And any other ways to make money.

Hi all it was good to see your latest purchases and those were some good things you bought mum2one. I like the shoe.

I've been making a list of cards I want to get apart from the usual birthdays e.g. get well, sympathy, congratulations, new home etc as well as blank cards suitable for men..

You know I mentioned before that I had given my son a greeting card folder full of cards for each month and the recipients addresses already written - well I phoned him this week to ask if he'd sent his brother a card as his birthday was earlier in the week - No, he replied :mad:

I'm sorry, I just had to laugh that is a typical man thing!!, joke this is the next step he signs the cards and you do all the posting for him! xx

This is the second time they have tried to charge me to fix it, it is still under warrenty only had it about 8 months, but the 4th time it's gone back. The Lid Case has a Small scrape on the top, which I did about a week after buying it, the first 2 times no problems but the last 2 times its gone back they have tried to say it has been dropped and damaged:mad: becasue of this scrape which is a load of tosh:D. So no way I'm paying. All that is wrong with it this time is its not charging so died as it has no power. Last time though their tech guy on the phone wiped the hard drive and it wouldn't do anything:eek: so in my opionion that was their fault.

Not had much luck with it, and would definately not buy another DELL, I'm borrowing my mums Toshiba which is top, seriously thinking of saving up a bit for one of these, unfortunately will have to give it back though tomorrow at the latest:(

Was going to tackle the kids rooms this morning but my baby girl has a throat and chest infection so might just tidy out the fridge and freezer as they aren't such big jobs.

Hi Elysia, it has more watchers and is on £2.60, what are they waiting for? Its only a craft CD. I had it bought as gift so it not bother me.

Sarah191979 , Mine dont charge either but I keep it plugged in electric, been on dell forum, its common fault. So I bought a Toshiba too to take out with me, must admit though rarely use it without battery.

Seriously though thank you all because you`ve all been an inspiration this month, been stuck in ill most of this month and its given me something to do and make some £££.

OMG Kelly, just seen your signature, well done, have they actually paid you yet, I`m still waiting.

Hello everyone

I don't post much but read with interest all your posts
I have just come back from our local Dobbies Garden Centre, they are getting rid of all their end of line stock and I bought a few bits for pressies, should of cost £55.31 paid £16.43 so saved £38.88 - worth a look if you have one near you.

Thanks for the challenges and for the ideas for pressies - I'm not at all crafty but love seeing and hearing what you are making and lurve hearing about your bargains
