    Thanks for using my code, have received a credit, which is a lovely bonus.

    I wonder if that was from my order as my invoice hasn't gone onto my card yet and I thought the credit got applied when the invoice was charged? If it was mine, am glad to help! but you may yet get another as maybe me and another person both used it?!

    I introduced my mum and haven't got the credit through on that yet? Did you get an email advising of the credit or did it just appear in the account?

    Am really pleased with them so far, have had the free £10 & free Cadbury eggs on order 1, the free cheese on the 2nd order and today on my 3rd order the free box of Lindt chocs :D as well as the free £5 referral credit to come! Have only mainly ordered stuff that has been on offer too.

    Afternoon all

    Practically all done, rats have been cleaned out, vacuumed up, almost packed except the last few essentials. Still need to get my euros.

    Having my lunch at the mo which is the same as what I had for tea yesterday as it needs using up. Feel as if I've got sod all in right now, and going to be skint when I get back.

    Window cleaner is coming today so I'll have to get a bath and wash my hair after he's been, don't want him to see me prancing around in the nuddy! :eek:

    Enjoy your chocs kirri - I've refrained from opening my 1p Easter egg yet. Wonders never cease! :D
    There's a storm coming, Mr Johnson. You and your friends better batten down the hatches, because when it hits, you're all gonna wonder how you ever thought you could live so large and leave so little for the rest of us.

    Hi y'all thanks for all the best wishes, I'm actually feeling worse so having done Costcutter low carb bargains (leaflet shoved thru door) I'm crashing out for a sleep.

    Lip_Stick have a great vacation !!

    Hi all, on the hop so will catch up properly later, I've had an odd few weeks with poorly kids and one thing and another. I'm just back from Tesco and spotted some good bargains so thought I'd share....

    Tesco Value Flapjack traybake 14p (standard price, not yellow sticker, dated June 2012)
    Tesco Value rich tea biscuits 14p per packet.

    Muller vitality raspberry 26p per 4 pack, didnt scan other flavours as was in a hurry.

    Lots of 'Price cuts' in the biscuits / crackers aisle, too many to list here's a few:

    9 pack of mint penguins 50p
    Oatcakes 25p

    Lots of WW and lighter choices biscuits less than half price.

    Ryvita minis 6 pack - 64p

    Oatland biscuit co milk choc crunch and caramel crunch 39p per 9 pack

    All of these are showing FULL priced online, some items had 'price cut' yellow SELS and others just had a normal white SEL with a star in the corner. There really was tons, we don't eat a lot of this kind of thing so I just bought some Ryvitas and granola bars etc but if you wanted to stock up for packed lunches etc, now would be good time to do it. Also, NOT store specific, I called my Dad who was near a Tesco to let him know and a lot of the price cuts were in his store too, 100 miles away, hope this helps someone. Would advise checking it out quickly though as these don't last long and there where big gaps already in front of things like Weight Watchers choc cake bar things for 60p and Special K snack bars for 66p.

    Not very OT for this thread, supposed to be emptying my cupboards not filling them but, as 'they' say, every little helps ;-)

    Being honest, I really dont know who's order got me the credit, it was an email saying your recommendation has paid their invoice, no name or anything, then it gives you a code for the credit, how do I get this weeks freebie?

    Just found the freebie by looking on the front page LOL, dunno whether to make a mini order or not.

    I think my invoice charges on the 22nd, so see if you get another credit :D

    Did you get the welcome pack with the free cheese code on it? There was no minimum spend on that code if you haven't used it yet.

    I just stocked up on a few things on offer this week as it's £12 min spend, I was far too tempted by the chocs, bad I know!!!

    I never received a welcome pack, just a receipt in the box, I'm going to wait as im not desperate for anything, think we've all be tempted.by freebies, I wo.t be tempted, as i have the 1p egg and 6 creme.eggs to contend with after lent, so won't be tempted, do they give freebies away every week? Had a phone call from them asking if I wanted a regular supply of milk and I could have £5 if i did I declined, as only ever use milk for my porridge, I go through just over a pint a week, so I don't think it would be with it, free delivery or not

    I didn't get the welcome pack either but my mum did, was an envelope with a free fridge magnet in and leaflet, so we both used the code for the free cheese as it's a generic one for new customers, if you want it let me know and I'll pm it (probably not allowed to post it on here..!). Probably wise not to order to get the chocs, I was weak!!! (They do look nice though). They seem to be doing a lot of freebies so far, see if they keep it up. I didn't get a call about the regular milk order, though I have ordered 1 lot a week so far anyway, maybe I shouldn't have if they were giving out £5!! The only other offer I had was 50p off per pack for a month if ordering eggs regularly.

    I've just had crumpets for lunch, delivered this morning :)
  • Afternoon all,

    toast for breakfast, dd had cereal and yoghurt
    no lunch as in work
    not sure on dinner yet, dd is with a friend so it's only me eating, maybe have ravioli or soup?

    Had a phone call today to say I have won a 10ft trampoline & enclosure in a comp :j:j
    It's being delivered the 1st week of april, dd will be over the moon, she's wanted one for ages which I just couldn't afford so I'm really happy for her... YAY ME!!! lol

    Lipstick- have a fab time away, I'm sure you will, there's a candy store on the main street which sell marshmallows on a stick covered in choc, no idea what they are called but YOU HAVE to try one, they are amazing!!!! they also sell candy floss almost the size of dd when we went lol ENJOY

    Have a good day
