Drop a brand challenge
on a £100 shop you might on average get 70 items save
10p per product = £7 a week ~ £28 a month
20p per product = £14 a week ~ £56 a month
30p per product = £21 a week ~ £84 a month (or in other words one weeks shoping at the new price)0 -

Oh Sally, that's not good that you're still not feeling greatIs it a flu-y type thing? We were supposed to be going to a party this evening but are hosts emailed yesterday to say that they were really unwell so unfortunately they've had to cancel - there seems to be a lot going about. Hope you feel better after a wee rest.

Morning all,
It's lovely and sunny here so I'm going to go for a two mile walk at lunchtime, where I'll get some fresh air and also top up my tan too!!!
Hope everyone has a great day. Keep smiling!

Morning all, only nine hours until the weekend (not that I'm even at work yet
)
Got a really posh spa day with mum tomorrow for her birthday so going to swim my heart out since I'm missing my exercise session today by working this afternoon which is a pity.
Then my brother is cooking Saturday night for Father's Day - steak and wedges I think, yum.
Need to drag OH to the doctors on Saturday too, he's had the cold/cough thing that's been going around for over two weeks, which isn't right.No longer using this account for new posts from 20130 -
