No, it's not just you. I am officially addicted as well. ;D
Want to set up MSE Anonymous Support Group for all us addicts?!0 -
Ha. I started a really similar thread in the discussion thread. I have just been trying to find you the link and cannot find it. ???
I know what you mean. Its a nightmare - I am not sure how money saving I do anymore - am better at finding bargains to spend it all on instead. Ooops:heart2:Mum to my little Daisy 3 and Archie 1.:heart2:0 -
I am addicted too. I am a stay at home mum and use this website all the time. Even when i am doing the housework the chat page is up and as i go past the pc every so often i refresh the page. I do use other formus as well though, but this is the only one that saves me money!! ::)This is a system account and does not represent a real person.

I can't have a convasation without telling somebody about the website, I saved my bro money on the travellodge deal and now he's hooked. I even sent an important email at work last week to as bloke I speak to on a regular basis, we get talking about our kids and I put at the bottom of the email that baby wipes were on offer at safeway.................................I'm a lady, I like ladies things0

Thank god im not the only one, I too have become semi- permenantly glued to this site. Having been forced to give up work to stay at home since my son injured himself ( hes fine now - but not had the final say so cant be left with holiday/out of school club) this is the first site i go to and stay logged on all day. My pc's in my kitchen/dining room so I just refresh as I pass by.
My only complaint is that its costing me money!!
This is because i think to meself I'll have a cuppa now and catch up on the postings - boil kettle - sit down - read - remember tea - boil kettle - read - remember - boil kettle - etc. I once managed SIX boilings before i got my cuppa, my leccy bill is gonna be huge and its all your fault !
All you people out there with your freebies, good ideas, moneyoff thingies, etc, i blame you all.
