    Why you wanna go to hairdresser when I can cut your hair:rotfl: just give me APGs I'll be happy:p. Anyway, you hair is so thick - its taking them 2 hours by the time they finish cutting your hair:cool:

    I cut my own hair :)

    I got it from youtube or here on mse, you brush it all forward over your head (your head forward), and secure in a ponytail, yes a pony tail on your forehead!, and you cut across, giving a layered effect.

    or another is put hair in ponytail ( a normal one) and move your hair band down, and just cut across :)

    Or, get a mum, dad, anyone, who wont call you a cheap sake :D

    i was just looking at shoes, yesterday i think, i went to charity shop, and saw some brown moccasins/loafers ( bhs tlc range), these are in fashion now, they where only £2.50, and on the new look website they have the exact same for £17,99!. What!. And also some loafers i saw in peacocks,

    here http://www.peacocks.co.uk/product/index.jsp?productId=6120051&prodFindSrc=search £11.55

    Minus the tassel are £15.99 on new look http://www.newlook.com/shop/womens/shoes/slip-on-suedette-loafer_236420001

    I also got the co-op email, but co-op is expensive so you prob end up paying for it yourself with the price you buy the stuff at :(

    What a day i had today, ended up getting a packed bus home, it was like something you see on tv when they show you buses in India, minus the hanging people off the sides, lol

    Thanks Sarah. What you say is good policy although all the coupons I have found todate and which appear in post 1 have all been found through regular daily googling.
    end of quote

    Now call me suspicious, but out of 13 thanks on the above post 11 have no other posts, 1 has 1 posts and one has 10.

    Yeah right, google and you will be directed to MT's list on mse. I did think of responding but thought if they are sad enough to wanna lie and take all the credit then let them:cool:
    It just p****s me off that they have 146 thanks for copying stuff and MT only has 75 for all her hard work:mad::mad::mad::mad:
    Be thankful for what you have because it could all be taken away tomorrow.;)


  • thanks Bw
    seen that and thought better of responding but is annoying from the point of view thank no one gets thanked for finding them

    amazing how google finds these coupons just after they've been posted on coupon thread , isn't it


    but if you take a closer look at the thanks on that 1st posts

    most are ones that don't post again and some now have PRP against them

    they have a habit of starting new ids to bump the thanks /thread up.

    was locked but got opened again

    I wouldn't worry about it Blue and MT.

    Don't see that thread getting a mention in weekly newsletter, unlike printable coupon thread :D which does.

    2 million hits can be through google. And same person not logged in viewing site.

    also, :shocked::naughty: not all those pdfs could be find by simply googling...... like the change for life one.... that was emailed to subscribers of it, who shared it.

    And you are telling me..... :tongue: that someone sits in front of their computer everyday going... "oh what shall I google today for a pdf coupon...I know! :idea: I shall google happy eggs or zilli.... :whistle: and see if I can find a pdf coupon :rotfl:

    thanks button is overrated.
  • i know what you mean

    not in it for the thanks anyway but at least mine are real people, well i hope they are :rotfl:

    but that said there are those that actively use/participate in coupon thread that don't thank nut have this other thread.go figure.

    hows the tooth by the way.
