Evening all drivellers

Blue hope you feel better soon:A

Aesop how's the broken tooth:(

Doc great getting gift card for T's:T

Thanks everyone for your congrats Re LA agreement to fund DS Special School Placement even our rep just kept saying WOW 3 days after they saw our case we prepared for tribunal they done a complete U Turn and have even agreed the transport cost. Just hope the nitty gritty gets sorted quick so we can get him back into education as been out now since end of July and he supposed to be doing his GCSE's.

Kerri how did you get on at boots. I purchased what would have cost £416.00 Cost £103.99 saving £312.01 but even better never spent a penny as used my advantage points and still have a balance of £173.97:D:D:D I have made a complete list of what I got if anyone interested don't want to make you all really envious:rotfl:. There was a family of four there they were just sweeping shelves of things into big baskets obviously either ebaying them or car booting it was unbelievable to watch but this was my first time going to the 75% right at the begining.

first time I was going to try the vitamin glitch but couldn't find the shots so gave up on that one didn't really know what I was looking for:(

Got to go and pick up DS2 from work

Congrats on your result with the LA. What are you gonna do with all the spare time you'll have now your not fighting the LA? I guess you will be doing some walking around Asda/Tesco:D Is your DS pleased to be going to school?
I would love to know what you bought in Boots. What kinda stuff did the family of four buy? I thought the only stuff on offer in the 75% was either junk or the expensive sets of stuff.

Tassimo are giving away £50 Amazon vouchers if you are one of the first 200 people to enter four codes in the secret garden at 10am tomorrow. It was difficult when you only had to enter one, no chance with 4:o:o

Once he is all settled hopefully get back into the daily comps thread haven't done them since before May last year. He is really happy as it was the only place he showed interest in but really anxious at the same time as he has never stayed away from home he will be a full border which means he will return every third weekend rather than every weekend. He stayed for one night in Nov to see how he would cope and he will have a gradual integration we just praying it will be successful. It dawned on me today for the first time we will be able to go away for breaks on our own or with other adult friends :jwe tried this once and had to come back. It's going to be big changes for us all especially him but if it works will be for the better for him especially socially the placement would have been better if he had started a few years back but then I don't think he/we would have coped with the residential part where as he is 15 now so hoping he will learn some independence which he is craving for but in the right enviroment.

We done one hit went back to the carpark as couldn't carry anymore went back had a slower look around went to few other shops had lunch went past around 1pm most of the shelves were empty quite a lot of the sanctury stuff left that didn't seem to be going

The family sweeping the shelves were mainly getting the soap pump set don't think it was the RJ one but another, playboy perfume sets they were extremelly well organised looked like they knew exactly what they were getting and where so probably had gone in last night and made a list and knew what each other were targetting they were filling big baskets leaving them stacked in a quieter part of store

first time I was going to try the vitamin glitch but couldn't find the shots so gave up on that one didn't really know what I was looking for:(

Boots was a bit of a wash out by the time I got there, was going to head in before work but left late so didn't get in until lunchtime Most shelves cleared and people grabbing whatever was left, i couldn't be bothered with the bun fight in the end as there wasn't anything I was totally desparate for I did manage the vitamin glitch again so I am the proud owner of:

3 x Deos
1 x Nivea for Men Moisturiser (for OH not me :rotfl:)
1 x large shower gel
1 x shave gel

all for £2.18 :j Had a £2 off Nivea from Dave's Locker and a £1 off Healthcare which I used. The SA said 'oh you're stocking up' , 'yes' I replied 'my NY resolution' :rotfl:

The shots are in a little bottle, kind of the size you get the Yakult and Actimal drinks in, they are silvery with green and yellow on and generally on promotion ends, or with the 'wake up' type stuff in the vitamin section.

Doc - I've only used them a couple of times but I've sent cartridges off here previously http://www.therecyclingfactory.com/
