Hi everyone, can you help me I would like to know if the Papercrafts inspirations Mag subscription that you can get via Tesco Clubcard rewards comes with the free gifts?

In the T&C it says they may not but I wondered if anyone had the subscription this way and knew if they did or how frequently? It's £13 of vouchers for 1 year so about £1.10 a mag. I normally get last months ed. from a man on the local market for £1 but they don't include the gifts and he can't always get every months mag.

Yes ,I get all the free gifts with my Tesco subscription,:jits a great mag too,Its the only mag I get ,I,ve only been cardmaking since I took out the subscription.

That's brill thanks, that's just what I wanted to know :beer:
Did you get this subscription personally? has everything worked out ok? It seems like the ideal subscription for me personally as I don't usually like the sign-up gifts they offer. I think I will get it as it's more reliable than waiting on the market man every week.

Yes I did and it's been fine. I normally get my subs issue well before it hits the shops and I always get the freebies.

10 Promarkers
payper box patterned card for boxes
white card for stamping & printing
Glossy Accents

A create and Craft Goodie bag for £10
inside it had a sheet of 5 stamps from Dimension Fourth, 3xCD roms,
decoupage, cards& envelopes, embellishments 9 sheets of peel off ribbons card kits 8 small punches loads of peel off sheets a 1kg bag of paper, foam squares, 2 sentiment stamps blocks with 4 stamps on each 1 set of narrow ribbons.

flourgirl you got some fab stuff:T glad you had a good day:j

has anyone got the LOTV girl on a swing stamp? I can't get mine to stamp properly - there is one part of it which will not stamp:mad: I have tried everything but it still won't stamp. I have given up before I waste even more card:mad:

rainmac how is the rymans card you bought, does it bleed. did you get any of the free white card from the NEC? I love using this card as it colours really well and doesn't bleed but would either have to order online or go to Hobbycraft which may or may not have it in stock. rymans would be so much easier to get to.

happy birthday cgcockcroft:T:T

congratulations to all the winners:T:T

We lived in Hall Green for quite a few years before moving to Stourbridge. OH lived in Erdington for a while as a child. Our first house when we got married was in Olton and my mom lives in Shirley now.

What a small world. I grew up on Bryanston Road not far from Dovehouse shops and my best friend still lives in the area in Dickins Heath although for our childhood she lived on St Bernards Road.

Hope computer problems get sorted I'd be lost without my computer which is why I hate it that I get no internet connection at the caravan.

Off to make a cup of tea as been doing cha cha slide and can can (sp) at birthday disco.

Well I thought I replied to some of your messages, but cant seem to find my post. So a huge post just to catch up!

Anyway lets start again.

Tomsmum – Yes it is the Epson printer we were talking about earlier. Its out of the box now and working fine with most of the laptops in the house (we have 5!). The only one its not working with at the moment is OH’s. He has windows 7 on his and we need to download a patch. I have windows 7 too, but as mine was the main computer we had to attach it to, it seems to be working fine. (Hope that makes sense!)
Thanks for the info on the Nellie Snellen dies, I may wait and get different ones.

Peppop – I shop online. I don’t live that close to a supermarket, so find it very useful. 99% of the time everything is good, you may occasionally get substitutions that are a bit silly though. Hope it came through ok for you. I agree with The Wife if you have any problems.

Hello Soulie. Welcome to the thread.

Well done Hassy on getting your signature sorted

Paddington – the challenge sounds a good idea. I shouldn’t be spending either. Not a member over on cp, looks like I might have to become one, but I struggle to keep up on this thread, never mind following another!

Congrats to all winners

I think I may need to join the stash ban shortly, spending too much money! Those elves have been busy.
Hugs to all who need them. x
