  • ohh in tesco £astbourne extra, the wi-fi only works near the car wash men. there is no signal near the recycling bins.
    life is like a loo roll. the nearer the end you get, the faster it goes.
  • bit of a silly question I think as i'm not very technical but is there an app for this forum where it would be easier for me to load the page when I'm in Mr T's. Stupid blackberry was playing up on me, wish i had kept my iphone it was so much better :(
    I'm not really a new user, just wanted a new username

    Baby on board, due 06/03/2012
  • I know a lot of policemen and can I just say ........... This is absolutely hilarious and I wish I could copyit and send them it because it's SO right.

    Go for it, I've no objection to them being copied and sent on. :)
  • No!!

    I have been reading for ages... thrilled that I had nearly caught up... got to the end only to see you had all moved to a new thread and I am already 27 pages behind... :eek:
    If you're not scared, you're not paying attention

    For crying out loud! I am in the facebook group, there is like 40 members, about 1 post an hour usually people saying what they got today or asking about scanner locations etc. I honestly don't know why people are getting so wound up over it! It's not like they know anything mse doesn't already know, come on there's 40 ish members were hardly gonna do much damage to anything are we! I for one would love everyone in here to join, the reason I'm in there because is because it makes it easier to keep up to date and say somebody post's a find as a new comment or pic, all the questions and discussion about that item is all posted as comments below it so it makes life so much easier. My total finds up to date.. hamster x1, bubble necklace x1, zebra pens x1, hamster and babies x1, barbie car on dtd x1 and the other day I dropped on an ood hanging sign for the gift sets so got £58 worth of gifts on dtd. And that is my total up to date. Some of you get that much in one day! My nearest tesco is 8 miles away so only go when I'm in the area, I used to go purposely to look for things but not having much luck made me realise it's a waste of time and fuel. That being said I still try and keep an eye on this thread for the times I do call in, but to be honest it is so much easier just to check a facebook page with it's more organised layout etc. I always post any little misprices or deals I come across on here and would love to be the one to find something new but like I said my local is quite poor and no scanner. I find in the facebook group I can make more of a contribution by helping with editing doc's etc and one day I probably will come across something new and when I do it will be posted on the facebook page and on here! Maybe some people have joined the group with different motives but I definately have not seen any behaviour that goes against mse.. yes we all saw the comment copied on here yesterday, but trust me nothing has actually happened in that way at all. Some people's hatred towards the group has made me feel like I want to leave the group, but then I think why? When you actually look at the posts on there it is all completely innocent and harmless. The way it is being portrayed on here is all wrong, it's being made out to be something it isn't.

    I know my name probably isn't well known in here, but anybody who remembers me from DTD days will remember that I did my best to help everyone out, I am not one for grabbing every last item on the shelf and I really wish I could help out more here like I did in DTD days. I love seeing everyones finds and I want as many people as possible to benefit from these tesco !!!! ups as possible. I would not be in that group if it were a case of 'lets all screw over mse'. I don't know the reason's behind the deleting of some members but as I understand it was not bailey who did that and the person responsible seems to have left. I hope bailey does look through her pm's and get back to everyone wanting answers and begins adding people again. I am very sorry to hear some of you are hurt, angry and just plain miffed on the subject it really does sadden me, but like I said the group really isn't there for a sinister reason, and it makes things easier it really does. I hope the bumpy start to the group will pass and some people will come around to joining, would be lovely if we could all live in harmony.

    The thing is most of us don't know there are only 40 members in the group or how many posts are put up on there, we got removed from the group without no reason as to why and after contributing to the page, I uploaded pics of some of my finds and have been removed from the group when I haven't asked to be. So those that still have access to the fb page, why don't u question the admin about the way they are behaving.

    By anything of use, I presume u mean someones id?

    Maybes because I have more integrity than they do? Maybe because rather than cause more problems, I'd prefer to take the grief myself so it all settles down? Maybe because what value would be naming them have, other than have the thread descend into another slanging match?

    Like I said, I mostly posted to clear things up about Lovecrafting. That done, I'm off
    :)

    To say that you know who certain people are but you are not going to name and shame them has just started the whole thing up again.Please just name and shame them then maybe people can move on.

    Or you can read my previous posts (not going to go into it again, as it is getting tedious to the other members of the thread), and you can see what has happened. If you still have any questions, please feel free to pm

    Thanks

    Blimey: :eek:

    You turn your back for a wee while and there is a new thread with 20 odd pages!

    Tried to skim back but decided not to after glimpsing another offensive joke and not very friendly sounding comments.

    We all used to get along so well. What's gone wrong? (Rhetorical question!)

    I'm gonna hold back on the chat and selectively lurk til things settle down.

    Hope to speak soon guys n gals :T

    Hi, which joke was offensive? If it's one of mine I'll go back and remove it.

    !!!!!!!!! I left you for one evening(doing hard work for YOU!!!) and you managed to ruin the thread with the fb/locarr talk?! I am soo deeply disappointed with you! :( (of course I don't mean all of you just the few who keep going back to the dreaded topic all the time)
    Can we just leave the fb alone? I'm sure it doesn't do us any good talking about it all the time, pages go on like crazy with nothing nice to read :(
    Locarr or whoever else it would be, does it matter?! NOT!!! Everyone deserves a chance as long as they try to be nice and polite! And he clearly tried/tries! Also I don't find the grammar/spelling lessons useful, sure we all know we make mistakes but they don't have to be pointed out(unless they are funny like my "mens skirt" LOL)

    NOW I am pleased to announce we have all pictures for the calendar! :D and even more then 12! :D I have scanned through the WHOLE previous thread to find them...

    I have to ask Miss January(aka purple tights) to repost though as I couldn't find it(or someone points me in the direction)
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ thank you FK :)

    and also a Mr who was brave enough to pose for a front view picture that I couln't find again? TIA

    Pics coming in a minute :D

    No, it wasnt me that started it all up again. I havent posted on here for a number of days, purely to get the thread back on track. Read back the last few pages of the old thread, and you'll see
