  • I'm not a morning person so if I stay up late I get up late. :)

    sounds good to me. I'm not a morning person either but with two small kids I still have to get up :(

    Argh I can't get to sleep. I have a mouth shield/splint in supposed to have been wearing for the last 6 months and haven't bur now teeth problems getting the better of me so trying to wear it but I just keep gipping and a mouth full of saliva which doesn't help! It's horrible :(

    Everything will be ok in the end, and if it isn't ok then it isn't the end :)

    Good morning everyone! What are you all up to today - or is that a really silly question? ;)

    I MIGHT not go to Mr T's unless there's a huge glitch around. Got stacks of washing, ironing and general housework to do. Yuk!:cool:

    Just realised how obsessed with Mr T's I really am. Memorable events in my life seem to happen there. OK, so I didn't go into labour while shopping in Mr T's, but that's where I took my 1 day old baby boy when I was discharged from hospital! :eek:OK, it was to get a tin of formula milk, but I can still vividly remember walking around the store with a tiny baby in a car seat and feeling slightly worse for wear let's say.... ;)

    Another incident was when I had to take my then 4 year old DD to the toilet in Mr T's. It was really busy and there was a queue of people waiting to use the toilet. My DD waited until the there was a lull in the noise in there to announce "Mummy, I wish my bottom was as big as yours, then I wouldn't fall down the toilet". Cue lots of giggles from outside the cubicle door. :rotfl:Then I had to open the door and face the amused glances from everyone while doing the 'walk of shame' to the sinks.:o
    It wouldn't be so bad but I'm only size 10/12!

    Hope you all have a good and fruitful day. xx

    Anyone think this might be worth a go ;)
    If you pick up a copy of the Tesco magazine, front cover woman with white hat brown hair and white coat and you turn to page 39 Buy any 3 gifts and get the cheapest free from the 1st November to 3rd January 2012...the pictures are the half price gift sets that started today :think: eg, vaseline tin, small impulse set (pink), Lynx, Dove men + care and another Dove set.

    I can confirm they are half price but with the Tesco mag with the lady on the front there is full page advert with photos of the gift sets & its says they are 3 for 2 this is not kicking in so be sure to pick up the mag & claim DTD. Sorry can't remember the page number

    I made a mistake once, believeing people on the internet were my virtual friends. It won't be a mistake that I make again!

    hi, managed to gt a light strikes stickered but the cs point blank refused a dtd no matter what i said, and just gave a jtd on it, so it may have to go back for a refund cant afford £30 extra bn a £10 may have kept it,but not sure how a return would work now.
    Also went to durham extra they had no stickered toys or baby products that i was looking for, had kids in tow so wasn't looking on the clothing as its too much hard work.
    did manage to find some david beckham instinct a/s balm for £4 ? which is for my xmas stash. so well pleased.
    so it was uneventful night.

    Went to 2 stores tonight :D
    got 2 tangled bluray/dvds(20gbp each!!!:eek:) and brightstars mat(6.50/12.95) in the first one on dtd :j the CS lady tried to give me dtd on the baby mat and jtd on the dvds "because the offer is not on the system yet" :rotfl:I said I've been overcharged and it's not my fault something isn't on the system... got my dtd...
    when I went there she tried to send me over to electrical desk "because otherwise they won't know it's not working" but then she just went to tell them... while waiting a guy started chatting to me and asking if there are Ts in my home country :eek: I didn't say a single word before he said that... :o
    so when the lady returned and talked on the phone he said "well, you gonna get all your money back aren't you?" :D so I said pointing at the blue board "yes I think so, they have dtd policy" :rotfl:and so the CS lady was forced to mention dtd to her manager otherwise I'm sure I'd have to argue more...

    In the second store I went to look for the 4p bargains but the scanner wasn't working! :mad::mad::mad: (osterl*y!!!) so the sa offered to scan them for me and at some point a mens skirt with a tie "had to be sent back" :mad: didn't bother anymore... :o

    Please can you describe it? (thought I was the only who made typos like that!) Thank you, czerniacha, you have started my day with a smile on my face!:T

    Take it back, you have every right to take it back for a full refund. Not sure what exactly she wrote on your receipt, but its quite possible you will get £60 refund as thats what thereceipt says you paid.
