    To order online you need to register which I did yesterday, but my account is still pending so I couldn't order online. In the end I went to the depot. There is a customer payment till where you pay and they give you the receipt and you go to a seperate collection point. There is no minimum order and no minimum card limit :-). If you do go to the deport you can pick up their 'offers' leaflets which make VERY interesting reading!

    If you order online and pay online you need to print your receipt at home and then you can go straight to the collection point so bypassing the customer tills. I guess it works out cheaper for them if you don't use their customer services.

    Yes that helps a lot, many thanks. I looked at the flour prices but Lidl's is still cheaper - I've never found anywhere that sells flour in bulk that beats their prices, odd
    It doesn't matter if you are a glass half full or half empty sort of person. Keep it topped up! Cheers!

    Evening all, flying visit as I'm absolutely shattered this week... but can't remember if Matched Betting has ever been mentioned in this thread? It's pretty easy money if you only need a few hundred. I made £2k in six months without much effort.

    Just to let you know - thanks for the wishes but school didn't phone today. So DS1 is back to looking; on the bright side he got further this time so who knows.

    Never mind FW - at least now hopefully he is off and running.

    Got the dentist today - only for some reason I have mislaid my Tax Credit Card (which lets me have free treatment) - so I'm off to have another look. Hope I find it soon.

    Gemzie, I have heard about matched betting on other threads, and I was going to look at it. I understand you really really need to read and understand how to do it, before you start otherwise you can get in a mess.

    Had enough - am calling a Power day. 15 minute spurts to clear up the clutter as I want to work this evening when the boys have gone for their sleepover.

    What spurred this - my jeans felt looser this morning so went searching for a belt - the only one I could find ................ well lets just say there was more of me than the belt by about 6 inches. So I am holding up jeans with a safety pin.

    Then I couldn't find DS2's size 9 plimsols - well not quite true I could find one - and a pair each of sizes 10, 11 and 12.:o

    Then we turned his room over looking for wellies - nope!!! Finally found them in the boot of the car:eek::eek:

    So three bags: BIN, CHARITY SHOP, RELOCATE

    and she is off

    :Remember I chose the word "extraordinary" as my battle cry for this year?

    Just received a DVD "Gift" from a friend - and the tagline on the company heading is ""Extraordinary Gifts for Extraordinary people":T

    I say "Gift" because it is a copy of the "Shred" DVD :eek:

    I have three lots of stuff for the charity shop, which is going tomorrow. My dad is going to take apart a bookcase and put the wood in the shed for me - and then I'm going to spend the weekend doing yet more purging of stuff I don't need. I don't care if I WANT it. Only stuff I need is staying.

    Use a scarf as a belt, and start working on shred...

    Gulp!!! Yes - she looks really scarey:eek:

    Found a suitably long belt greenbee - and packed my lunchbox so that I have healthy stuff to nibble on. The small belt will fit soon enough.

    Done kitchen and mostly through bedroom - Shred will be saved till tonight (will I need a tiff gin to watch?)

    and she's off again
