    If anyone is doing an APG against Tesco or Morrisons the Airwick candles are great for it as £1.50 in both and £3.43 in Asda. So with the £1 coupon and 10% cheaper it makes them 35p each.

    Not a printable which is why Im posting on here.

    On various dvds (have seen this in sains, asda and morrisons) there is a cardboard sleeve entitled "movie feast" there are 3 x 50p coupons on them for coca-cola 2ltr bottles, small pots of nestle icecream and bags of kettle chips. Asda currently have the large bottles of coke 4 for £4, use 4 of these mocs and get 4 for £2.

    stupid cam belt on car has gone this morning and had to be towed back from a boot sale - the shame!

    Worse still looking at a £300+ bill as quotes so far have said water pump thingamy has to be done at the same time or it cannot be guaranteed. P***ed off!

    My neighbour has two rabbits and she is allergic to them. They were her daughters who has now moved out and I appear to have taken on the responsibility for them even though Ive enough furries in this house to last me a lifetime. Ive told her I'll take them on until she finds them new homes but she won't have it. When I went in this morning to put them out I told her about the car and all she said was " oh, will have to get a taxi then for my shopping" (I have been taking her weekly to do big shop). Talk about selfish. Looking at the whole situ in a new light now.
    Love, through the trees, past the sky, beyond the northern lights; and I won't let go. May your soul and spirt fly sweetheart x

    sounds like you are having a rough time MAGS.

    Tell this woman that you cannot look after the rabbits if she is not going to find a new home for them. Does she give you food money for them? or food?

    With the weekly shop did she do anything in return for you? invite you in for a cuppa?

    I'm so sorry about your car. I hope you did ok at the car boot, but guess you need to do a lot of car boots to pay the car bill. Have you looked on ebay or parts finder for the water pump? I managed to get a few parts for my car brand new from ebay and my garage was pleased to fit them. I suppose they make most of their dosh on the labour so if they are a decent garage don't mind you supplying your own.
    Why don't you say to your neighbour, "when you get the taxi to go shopping let me know and I'll get a lift with you";)

    Hey BW, swing some big apg's over please - you still got me address awww... go on pleasey please:o:o. Marmite is quite expensive and cost approx. £30 a bottle therefore, I am sure you can give me one of your biggish APG to offset our barter.
