  • As I took 2 booster seats for the car, a man grabbed my wrist and tried to pull my hand away, resulting in bruises and scratches to my wrist (my workmates thought the kittens had got me !). Anyway, he stopped trying to get my one when he realised another box was just being put out.

    How rude! I can't believe the way some people behave. :mad:

    Hi Welshy,

    OMG!:eek: This must have been a shocking experience! How rude indeed.:mad:

    Hope you're feeling better now.:kisses3:

  • ...As I took 2 booster seats for the car, a man grabbed my wrist and tried to pull my hand away, resulting in bruises and scratches to my wrist...

    I'm not sure which is the most upsetting, the thought of your unfortunate experience or thought that someone like that has kids!

    Perhaps a letter to Netto detailing your experiences and injuries in their store might be in order, telling them that you're also worried about returning and asking what they are going to do to improve security, etc, etc - maybe a result in due course to make you feel a little better? ;)

    Lost track of things coming in here with the move, but have had 2 x £25 of those Tesco clothing vouchers, plus 4 x £5 of Amazon vouchers from Valued Opinions today.

    :shocked: Welshy! That is terrible! Glad you're o.k.

    Today was boring, I received £20 worth of McDonalds deals with the regular junk mail.

  • Edna - the letter has already been drafted and has been sent 1st class post. If it only makes the Manager realise that for future bargain items a queuing system rather than a free for all in his store would be more appropriate then I will have achieved something.

    Just a computer sub today and a book ...........
    FREE MICROCHIP
    Misty the kitty was spayed today, at Pets at home they currently have an offer if the animal has a procedure they will include FREE microchipping which meant Misty had a FREE microchip which saved me £30 !!!! not only that but they had run out of the normal microchip so she had the expensive one that measures her body temperature too. One cat neutered - 2 to go !

    Also had FREE SCRATCHES AND BRUISES TODAY

    Today I queued outside Netto to get the £2.99 booster seats for my car as the law changed today. When they opened the doors, there was a mad rush and complete chaos (similar to the Ikea 1p chairs). As I took 2 booster seats for the car, a man grabbed my wrist and tried to pull my hand away, resulting in bruises and scratches to my wrist (my workmates thought the kittens had got me !). Anyway, he stopped trying to get my one when he realised another box was just being put out.

    At the tills it was limited to 2 per customer but I was shaking like a leaf when I paid and was completely and utterly amazed at how the people there behaved. It was sheer madness.

  • Today i got some Drug Free Sport wristband which i dont remember sending for - oh well it was free!

    (welshy - next time remember booster seats may be good for hitting RUDE people round the head, hint hint!!!)

  • Today I got an Xtreme3 'Beauty' razor - yey! It didn't occur to me (until somebody mentioned it later) that, by ticking the 'female' box, I'd get a female's razor - d'oh! I'd sent off for it as a men's prezzie for the prezzie box! Never mind, it's a free razor for me so I'm not complaining.:D
