    Hi all
    Just a hello really. Sorry I've been lurking for a while :o. I've had some bad news. I've not felt great so kept to myself. My chemo has been stopped and whilst I need more my consultant says the risk of the recent complications mean I am better off with the leukemia than chancing an infection they cannot treat. I have to wait until my health deteriorates sufficently to tip the balance to being better of chancing the chemo. Feel in limbo - but I'm alive and I can do quite a lot. Not feeling very grateful which isn't something I'm proud of. Sorry I'm moaning - I just needed to 'speak' about it.

    Oh wendy, you know where i am if you need to talk
    huge hugs from me, and everyone from this thread is behind you..

    Firstly hope this week brings better health to Wendy X
    A till spit comes out of the till with your receipt.

    At tesco and sainsburys you get them when you use your clubcard or nectar card so if you haven't got these get them asap as you can save loads of money with them.

    If you get a sainsburys till spit you can use it in tesco too, as long as you comply with the spend rules, ie £5 off a £40 spend or whatever.

    good luck

    I've been trying to work out what you have to spend in sainsburys to get the best till spits. My research so far gave me....
    £7 gave a £6 off a £40 spend
    £25 gave me absolutely no spit
    £9 gave me a £2 off a £20 spend
    £15 gave me double points off next spend
    I always use my spits (when given) in Tesco
    I've not managed to work out a pattern to when & why it will let me have one.
    I always use my NECTAR card in Sainsbury's

    has anyone worked out if there is an actual method to till spits?
    The end is nigh

    I had my head under the stairs cupboard looking for the brush attachment for my Dyson.... but heard the 12'o'clock news and def sent you 'Good Vibrations' too...they didn't play it on the radio this morning but another Beach Boys classic...'Sloop John B' was played on Radio2......would have been spooky if they had played the eponymous one...my middle name really is Ann....but still think the vibes from Beach Boys hits will def work.....

    Just wondering if anyone uses the fairy non biolaundry gel? Is it any good? Also same question about the Ariel Excel Actilift gel?
    Its on offer at £3 for an 18 wash bottle, but would be £2 with coupon, so about 11p a wash.

    Thanks Martin, and OMG! I got to spend £24!! its too much for me in order to use the £20 code in my crowdity a/c:eek:. Check my a/c & the code was there too. Tesco won't let me use £10 off wys £50 1st time groceries:D also not sure whether I will be getting cashback from TCB:o

    Btw, is Tesco direct different from Tesco groceries? I have never use online groceries with Tesco before but I do use alot on Tesco direct does it mean that I am not 1st time customer?

    I think all washing detergent are the same - but if you add 1 spoon full of Vanish oxi-finish to all the washing it might turn up cleaner:D we are conned into buying the products but as long as its cheap and using coupons to buy me not bother whether its good or not. Me only worry about my electricity bill:rotfl:

    Tesco groceries is different from Direct. You would prob be better using a code for a first time customer through topcashback and then using the crowdity code. That would mean 2 shops and spending £22 ish on each, but you should then get £40 worth of free shopping. You could always buy loadsa free range chickens or meat. I think the crowdity code expires on the 1st August.
    I have 3 accounts with crowdity but there was only a code in 2 of them:( so I have done a shop for loadsa Tesco value stuff (cheap carp for cooking etc:o) and then I am going to do one on Wednesday when all the offers start again as the frozen stuff I wanted the offers finished today:(
    Be thankful for what you have because it could all be taken away tomorrow.;)
