    CAFC - not a pushchair, but a carseat. It was great, delivered a day early (all their parcels come a day earlier than their emails state!), I got loads of promotional points and it was a smooth transaction. No complaints from me.

    Ahh thats good then.
    The pushchair Im now thinking of has got good reviews on there as well, and its only £164.18 on boots, whereas the previous link it was 249.99..... so basically get a new one for the price i paid for the quinny....:D would need a footmuff though (story of my life!)

    Anyone know of any codes etc? LOL:rotfl:

    well boots normally do free delivery over £45 spend and often if you spend over £50 or £100 there are extra points codes floating around and then you can use those against shopping in boots such as nappies (or perfume and make-up for mummy*)

    *not that I would EVER use them for that ;)

    Yes, company only has 1 office so it would definitely be there. However, using a clever bit of math & bus timetables, I worked out that if I can do an 8-4 day, it would make life a million times easier transport-wise. So if I do get offered the job, I could make it conditional on flexible hours. Just all in theory of course - they may hate me! :p I do feel slightly better though, knowing that if it came down to it, I could do a workable solution.

    CAFC, check on the Codes board or even Grabbit for Boots deal - I think there's always something going.

    SS, I have no referrals and still have 320 SB in a little over a week, so not sure what you're doing wrong? :(

    CAFC there is also a 10% off code for parenting club members.
    It's on this link

    Woohoo! I finally sold the car, not as much as I wanted but better than a kick in the teeth. Think it helped that I walked out when he gave the first price and he started to call out 'I can phone my boss!', they had taken money off for scratches and I said that it was ripping the !!!! taking off almost £600 for scratches that a valet would sort. Good news (for us) the gear box was playing along and he didn't notice the bald tyre.

    Now I have to call the garage and say 'oh btw, I can't collect my new car till next week'.

    Then a merc hit the wingmirror of the megane and cracked the mirror. !!!!!! didn't even stop so DH is unhappy about that.
