I agree, even though I think threats of chasing people for money are hollow unless you were actually committing an offence such as threatening people. Me thinks their legal dept are 'rattling their cans in the wind' on this one!

IMO he should apologise unreservedly to andrea and see how that is responded to. My guess giveen the support he's got is he'd be allowed back after a suspension......but thats only a guess of course.

Never ever underestimate people power though.

I told him the same today regarding Andrea and i just hope he has done something about it fingers crossed

Caz that haul is fantastic well done you! If you ever need a shopping partner let me know lol

The OEP glitch was my first real go at things and like you Fudge gave most of it away made up 3 hampers for christmas pressies and they where well chuffed with them, kept a few for myself and gave the rest to mum and gave a big bag to someone collecting food on the way out of t's, because I had to make the money up thats why I ended up with so many cake mixes lol

Is the boots glitch still working I thought it was finished so didnt bother trying but will give it a go tomorrow if still on, on the way through a few mr T's and a sainsburys lol
Seriously need to get back on my feet again I hate being ill have 10 bags of mary berry xmas cakes to make lol

I think I've become too programmed to only associate glitches with Tesco. Twice this week I've been in town and walked past Boots without even thinking to give it a go:( I wouldn't care but I currently take regular doses of vitamin B and would actually use the free stuff:(

Yep still on as far as I am aware but it seems that there are some stores becoming wise to the glitch now.

How are you doing grumpys1daughter? Don't think we have spoke for a week or so now :)xx

Thanks Fudge

Done' be !!!!! That deserves a round of applause!! :T:T:T:T:T I would love to have been so savvy back in DTD days but unfortunately that was only the start of my MSE adventure and I was far too naive :mad::o I've learnt the hard way to take advantage of a glitch when it comes along now. My OEP haul was testament to that....though I gave nearly all of it away ....so maybe not as savvy as I claim to be! Oh well, share the glitch love! :rotfl:

A lot of my toiletries came from Superdrug when they were selling stuff at silly prices such as shower gel, toothbrushes, toothpaste and mouthwash. I have stuff I keep meaning to take up to the hospital where DS2 spent most of the 1st week of his life but I've been lazy and not gotten my bum in gear. The other toiletries were the PriceCheck DTD and normal DTD.

My stash is taking over the house so I could really do with not buying any food bar fresh stuff like milk, bread & veg and concentrate on eating through the cupboards, freezer & stash. I'm just scared to lose the buffer in case things take an unexpected turn. I'm currently awaiting my ex kicking me & the kids out of 'his' house (he never got my name put on the mortgage) in which case I could lose my job as my salary will only cover childcare (very expensive over here) and rent so bar child benefit, I'd be relying on the ex paying more than he pays for his other kid to cover the bills. Given we split up because of his kid and his ex, I don't hold out much hope that me & the boys mean anything to him

There's a lot more to it but here it is in black & white - when asked what would happen if our finances got worse, he refused to reduce the lavish amount he pays his ex in order to provide for his 2 other kids. I spent the last 2 years paying half the bills (as did he as far as I've been told) but I also paid for all the food, clothes, toys etc for all of us including my step-child while he didn't put his hand in his pocket to even buy a toy for the boys (until a couple of months before we split when DS1 got some Thomas DVDs but in nearly 2 years that was it bar one business trip pressie). Poor DS2 wasn't bought anything until a week or so before we split. Thankfully his mummy bought him his cot, mattress and car seat.

I'm scared that if I start working through the stash that any money I save could be used to pay legal bills or if he files for divorce, could be counted towards the assets. It kills me that I'm in the worst financial position I've ever been in because I've been crippled by legal bills yet not once has my ex even bought a pack of baby wipes or nappies for his kids

Sorry that's gone on a bit. The busty barmaid poured me a large one and it's gone to my head

Not at all, you're welcome :ALovely to see you posting again tonight, it sounds like you're having a real rough time of it Don't berate yourself for feeling sorry for yourself because others are having a 'worse time' you'll only feel even worse. I'm sure your problems are just as important as anyone elses and it always sucks when you're the one going through it!

My Grampy always used to say 'earaches the worst pain you can ever have.' But I think the worst pain is the one you're in at the moment!!! :rotfl::p

There's a HUGE jump between Paracetamol and Pethidine, no wonder you're feeling blue Give it your utmost to get an app with a doctor who's been helpful and considerate in the past and GOOD LUCK! xx Hope you're feeling much much better soon :A

Now pethidine was one drug I didn't want during labour (I availed of most of the others though) but I can just imagine my reaction if they'd offered me a paracetamol instead :eek:

Hope you get better soon G1D. Don't worry about posting your woes on here. Seems I've just put forward my opening statement for my divorce on the last page (or the same page if you're on 40 posts per page ).
