Ah interesting :think:
Ours has about 2 rows of clothes & not many gifts, there was probably 3 aisles but one was completely empty! They had some good 'Survival Kits' for Mums & Blokes but people had opened them to see what was inside so only the ones with ripped boxes were left

Our local Asda are giving away goody bags as part of Tommy's campaign - has lots of money off vouchers, sample pack of wipes, johnsons shampoo and a Spot the dog book. Also for those who have toddlers I got DD2 a peppa pig junior bed set for £8 in the baby event ( £25 in next) they also had blue ones which I think were Thomas the tank.19.6.10 Weight loss 6lb0

The SMA is 2 for £12 (900g tins) I think Tara stocked up the other day. But ASDA did have HUGE tins for £12 - didn't see how big they are but am sure they won't be as :money:as Boots.
Plan to buy all my Follow On in Boots now I know you get points for it!
I never shopped in Boots and only had a Boots card when I got pg cos I wanted the tiny changing bag, since I've had it I've ammassed about £7's worth of points to spend (very good for me!)
i buy all little things for kian at boots to build up points. managed to egt to £28 for xmas shopping
have a voucher for spend £15 get £5 off. runs out end jan so am going to get some tins of follow on milk. and get the points as well.
spotted c&g food 5 for £2.50 as i have money off vouchers for these as well it will work out well.'Children are not things to be moulded, but are people to be unfolded'0 -

Have caught up on a few pages.
Well done Keira for eatingThe pizza idea sounds really good Buttons. I'm sure she will love making her own!
Hi all...
Well, the rumours were true.. new boss really is all for "yeah, work whatever whenever you like"!! :rotfl:We were looking at my new office space, and he was all "Do you want a new wall in here? We could block that area off if you like" :eek: He's going to get the heating fixed for me, order a new PC and phone (cos the ones on the desk are old and he wants me to have new ones!
), and said I can order any new furniture I want.. woohoo!
I think I'm going to work Mondays and Wednesdays, then either the Tuesday or Thursday depends on what's on that week. Going to email him that tonight and see what he thinks. He only suggested one fixed day a week though so I reckon he'll agree
I'm going to start my KIT days after Easter, some in old dept, some in new. Temp cover (now permanent!) lady is off for six weeks, mid-April to June, so I'm going to go in and help with May payroll (ladybird, expect a phone call!), and also arranging to do some days when new dept have meetings so I can attend and see what they're like and get used to the new words
All in all, a good meeting
Mum is taking Dad out for tea tonight so she'd going to drop Rhys off in a bitHe's been fine after his jab this morning

Looks like my detective work has paid off finally:j CSA rang tonight to say that as OH's ex has refused to speak to them or answer any letters they are now closing the case with effect from the end the last term he attended college ( July last year) they will then start the process of her paying back the overpayments:D also she is being investigated for benefit fraud so payback time at last.
PP, that is great newsAre you feeling smug? I think you deserve to!
And Caz is back :T:T:T. We missed you. How are things at yours now?Isabella Molly born 14th January 2009

Hi
Just caught up the last few pages. Sami, I have a hammock and Rose loved it. As soon as we started using it she slept through. She doesnt use it anymore tho. Too big for it really, tho i think the are supposed to last till 12 - 18 months.
SS, hope you are okay. Im sure it will happen soon.
Feelie, Toby is always dressed so lovely x
Good to see some peeps got a few bargains today in Boots. I never managed to get. Its been a bit manic here today. Rose had her first gymbabes session today. There was only her and another little girl so not so good for socialising but she thoroughly enjoyed herself. Tho she did start crying about three quaters of the way through. She was asleep by the time we left. She was shattered and she has slept most of the afternoon!DS Anthony Steven 07.06.92DD Becky Emma 24.01.94DD Rose Grace Jean 12.05.090 -
