Help! Do I spend my £25 of rainforest vouchers from TCB on tupperware for bean-a-castle, or do I save them for presents? I've got another £45 waiting to clear.

just a quick tip - and indeed thought - I have started writing on my freezer bags of meat if they are SP pruchases and how much I owe for them so I can keep track - would it be terribly sad to start writting on the other dry goods packets in sharpie/ labeling like a proper shop?

I like that idea too-last week I got a pack of 25 different coloured sharpies (for colour coded house move) in C0stc0 for £10 (with VAT )and a label maker for £9.

Hi MunniMuncha, do you know what brand it is? I can have a look at the stuff I have and see if it comes with destructions. I saw you post on another board about it, but I forgot to ask you there as I read it late last night.
.

I cant remember if you girls are C0stc0 or Makr0 shoppers,but if you are-they both do a nice cake mix.I must confess though as a baker and cake decorator I do find it a bit blasphemous to use mixes and very much a case of false economy-but then as it is my "bread and butter",I am a bit biased;)
Kerri the Camel thing on Amazon-I registered when you suggested and I have just had my first alert.Lordbob Polkadots has been eyeing a lock pick set for almost a few years.Each time he wants to buy it,something else comes up and he doesn't-its a hobby for him so he wont send money on it.When I first set it up, the set was £49.I set it to alert at £35 and this morning I got a notification that it is now £34.99.

I thought Id get it for him for fathers day-should I buy it now or reset the alert?Is it likely to go back up from here or is there a chance it could drop some more? I wandered as if its not going to change, I should probably get it now,which I could if I combined my "RL SP and TP" which currently has a combined total of £25 in them.My virtual account has £52 in it and I owe it £27 which I'll pay later today.

Speaking of rainforest-I bought this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Avanquest-Software-Hallmark-Card-Studio/dp/B003N7N784/ref=sr_1_cc_1?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1334323438&sr=1-1-catcorr from Christmas SP this week.We had our anniversary and DH's birthday in March and the cheapest decent card that we could find was around £3,so I thought this would soon pay for itself-I had a play last night and its really good.

Polkadot, how many of them are there left? I've found that if there are only a few left then I'd buy it now. It might go down in price, it might go up, but that's the nature of it. Does camel tell you what the lowest ever price has been? That'll give you an idea of whether it will go down further or not.

Hi Kerri - no it doesn't I'm afraid:(. It is just in a clear plastic bag with DCC Muffin on it and sell by date

Hmm any chance it lists the ingredients? I've got the mcdougalls diabetic cake mix which already has egg in it so I just need to add water. If you don't have egg in the ingredients then you'll need water to rehydrate the mix and eggs. Doesn't even come up in goggle how annoying!!!

No, sorry, no ingredients listed either:(

No don't apologise, I know it's like looking for a needle in a haystack:rotfl:

Have sent an email to them now, so will let you know (and the other person - sorry can't remember who it was now) what the outcome is:D
