    Hi LC,
    They're on the spreadsheet, I was updating it so it might have been filtered when you went onto it. Are you not able to view the spreadsheet?

    I have been going through the offers trying to find some good ones today, but not seen anything outstanding just yet. Will continue this evening :)

    If you ever get it where it looks like there's only a few entries, please check that the filter hasn't been applied or that it's on a different sheet.

    Now I understand,( i think) I was actually putting what I have saved into 3rd purse, from my main grocery shop, which means my money wont last, but I have also just started my 2nd purse with £10 in yesterday. So to simplify:

    I buy the bargain/bulk items from 2nd/£10 purse and then buy them back as I use them, rather than all at once. I also replenish with a new £10 every month. Is that right!!!!

    I was boring my sister with it today, about how fab this site is and she is the one who put me onto it and hasn't used it for ages. I am becoming and mse addict.

    Thanks for your help

    If anyone is wanting to order from Donald Russell, then I'd recommend pm'ing one of those that have already bought from there as they'll get a free gift :) I did it today using mothership's referral and she got some lovely aprons as a thank you :)

    It's not a link, the referrer has to submit the referee's name & address, email the the referee gets an email through with the code on.

    Fozzie should get first shout as she ordered hers first.
