    guy at work sent me a link with jobs he thinks I should apply for....

    none of them take into account that I have DS and would not be able to drop him off at nursery and take public transport to work or that finishing at 6pm, who will collect DS?

    I don't own a car and they know how hard up we are, told him that we weren't even sure we would make rent yesterday. so now need to buy a car and pay for someone to look after DS, because of jobs he searched for me?

    I just wish people would listen when I talk.

    me got coupons care of MSE from Blue and you, Doc :D

    that is why I said time to make shopping list.

    I was hoping my tesco express had quality street tins, but the vouchers cannot be used there.

    less travel to tesco express and with DS can sit on bus, he loves it. big tesco far and means would have to get 3-4 tins in different transactions. need them for DS' nursery.

    and halloween! last year, I didn't have choc, didn't expect visitors, so travellers came to door, teenagers too, gave them penguins! :rotfl: that's all I had, they looked disgusted! I said I don't have money, take it or leave it!

    I think the vouchers are accepted at Express stores - my Metro confirmed they do take them, and they were also excluded in the t&c - seems to be (another) print error.

    always check T&C on any comp, number one rule for comping. As you may find yourself disqualified for something you didn't know about or there may be restrictions that you don't know about. ie take a holiday between certain dates only. offer expiring in 6 months, etc.

    and some websites are very slack about taking down comps when finished. they just get your data so they can email you.
