    gutted - sainsbury's cancelled my free order!! Worth a try wasnt it!

    Ok popped into T's on way to work to look for a coat, no signs up but lovely SA came over and told me ALL coats are £20 (didnt like to say yes I know!):D

    Doubled up £20 cc vouchers and got 2 lovely coats both size 12 (one was £50 and other £40 originally) .....now when I got to work decided that one of them comes up a bit small if I want to wear a jumper under it, I know they didnt have any size 14's in store so I popped online and ordered a size 14 to be delivered to store......but had to pay £20 online as no vouchers left to exchange.

    So, do you think if I collect the size 14 tomorrow at direct desk......ask them to return it for refund then exchange the size 12 I got with vouchers for the 14 they have just refunded me for?

    I think I am making this more complicated than it needs to be...please someone slap me and tell me the correct way of swapping my size 12 for the size 14 !

    Evening all! been away for a few days 'up north' visiting family so no time to keep up with all the chatter :( sadly didn't even get a chance to check out any new Mr T stores - i did go past one and suggested it to OH.. I could tell from the look that it was a 'no' :rotfl: Good news is that Mr T is sending me a nice little gift card by way of an apology for them not accepting my coupons when they should have (30th Oct before the change in policy) so result there :j

    Have i missed anything amazing? Are the casserole dishes still scanning at 8p?

    Big hugs to anyone who needs them xx

    Eventually found one of these cameras today with a £19 SEL as well but didn't go for it as I was disappointed with the packaging! It was in a plastic sleeve where you could see the camera. Can I ask those that have found the cameras are they the same or are they in a box? Didn't think it looked much for £20 never mind £40, but for FREE I will go back and get one :rotfl:.

    I must say it is a fab camera, got the TDK SDHC 4GB card on offer at Mr T £6 & it's great.

    Many thanks for the pic Snap-ant. Nothing like the one I saw today, well camera is obviously but yours is in a box :eek:. The plastic packaging made it look quite cheap looking and I wanted one for a Christmas gift. Still tempted to go back though to see how much it scans for.......

    things gone from bad to worse with OH and not sure I'll cope on my own should it come to it, i look to people like caz for inspiration......he works away (his choice.... loads of jobs locally) so probably won't be that different only last time he left i didn't cope v well emotionally:(
    He just used the famous " well your the one that's desperate for me, and you'll never find anyone else" line on me :mad::mad::mad:

    Starting all over again on your own is hard but I can tell you from experience that being on your own - no matter how hard it may be at times - is so much better than living in a relationship that causes you pain and sadness.

    It's none of my business of course but I would say to think long and hard before wasting any more years on a man who doesn't deserve you.

    Both these are from HDUK (I just copied this all from there so thanks to OP's on there!)

    All Health & Beauty gift sets half price from Tuesday 8th

    http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/health-beauty-gift-sets-half-price-tesco-from-tuesday-8th-until-mon-14th-nov-1054707

    Noticed when doing my online shop - that from tomorrow selected health & beauty gift sets are half price in Tesco. These are the kind of gift sets that are usually in Boots 3 for 2 offer. I will be buying a few as presents for our extended family.

    Lynx Gift set will be £3. The Lynx sets, for example, are £6 each in Boots 3 for £2. Or £5 each in Asda (2 for £8). So even if you're only buying 1 then you're making a saving.

    For example:

    Impulse Very Pink City Escape
    Fruity Nail Varnishes
    Spa Hand Duo
    Lynx Africa Body Spray And Shower Gel
    Spa Exfoliating Sugar Scrub
    Lynx Excite Body Spray& Shower Gel

    All Half Price - Was £6 Now £3

    ** It seems that there are lots and lots half price - all at various prices! Seems like every H&B gift set that Tesco sell will be Half Price from tomorrow. **
