    Just got back to the florist, florist was lovely just don't like how were tied in to so many things. Were not allowed to provide our own nibbles for the evning guests and they want £13 a head for some not very good options :(

    pretty standard I am afraid PM. No hotel allows you to bring your own food to the location, as if you got food poisoning you would blame them, also they obviously don't make any money from you doing it this way.

    Just trying to make up a shopping list for S's to try and get a BM but need to spend £25 on toiletries healthcare and pharmacy as got 2 coupons one for 1000 np with £25 spend and 9p off per litre of fuel with £25 spend:j and tank empty:D;) problem is got to rely on DH picking right items as I got to go through the paperwork:rotfl:.

    think got it to

    4 x carex handwash original 250ml £4 £3in T's (not sure if classed as toiletries though)
    4 x Aquafresh mint 500ml £12 BIGIF at T's £5.70
    6 x Radox shower gel for men 250ml 3 for £3 = £6 £6 in t's
    4 x Sainsburys hayfever + allergy relief 14's £4
    1 x 4 head headache stick 3.6g £4.50 £4.50 in t's
    1 x nurofen express caplets 16's £3.60 £3 in T's

    should give me a BM of £9.90 spend of £32.10 - SD:j If everything in stock may get him to leave the 4 head stick off although if spend £30 have another 120pts coupon:D;)

    OOPs put singles figures so edited as misleading not as practised as Doc:D ;)

    And forgot 15% staff discount for this week only


    DH just rang had to abort his mission no Aquafresh at S's:mad: the main BM says not even a space for it yet always bought there in past.:(

    Don't know why, but I have been clicking the thanks button, it disappears then reappears again, :eek::eek:so looks like I haven't thanked anyone but I have.

    OK...who phoned T's and got them put the cherries on promotion? After posting this morning how expensive they were, found they were on offer today and I got 2 lots a £1 per punnet, and they're very nice, sitting eating them at the moment....being careful to not swallow any cherry pits...I know a couple won't kill me , but like apple seeds they are poisonous .Strawberries were only £1 as well.Anyone like Shredded Wheat ?The 30 pack is 2 for £4 in Morrisons , not as good as when the 16 pack was bogof in T's a few weeks ago but I had a £1 Nestle coupon to use so got 2 for £3...also got 6 more Innocent Fruit juice from Morrisons as it is only 90p and their Ribena is half price at £1.43.....went specially to M's to get the Pepsi 8 pack for £1.89 ,got 12 lots last week so didn't really need to buy anymore....I'm sure it will be back on offer before the end of the 'summer'( if we ever have one)....after being stingy with luggage vouchers they are now giving them away by the handful....SA asked me if I wanted the whole bundle of them today as people had stopped collecting them now as they must have got all the luggage they want ....in this T's they are having a raffle today for staff only for the complete set ....she said that it had been very a successful promotion and they had sold a lot of it.

    No Dr i had a cs on a£60 spend but mislaid it ,nearest T is 40mile round trip so i try & save as many moc,flop moc & cs etc to use in one trip


    Do you want mine? 5 weeks in total. Guess FV not spending that much either.

    Valid from : 23/7 -29/7, 30/7-5/8, 6/8-12/8, 13/8-19/8, 20/8-26/8

    You can have them if you want it. If not does anybody want it?

    Btw, you can use both ie : one from yours + 1 from the above. That will make your CS to : £12.00off wys £60.

    I have done it before from different clubcards CS mocs for the same week - I used to get 2 or 3 lots of the same but I think they cotton on it now - only sent 1 lot out.:(

    There is no way I am going to spend £60 in one transaction saying that I did one last week totalling £60ish just to used up the £9 wys £60 plus other mocs & total paid £15ish - the most I ever paid but :-

    I got : food, brita jug, brita refill and the best part Slow cooker;)

    Thanks DWW but if someone else can make use of them let them have them as i dont get to T every week sometimes it may be 2 or 3 week between unless we have to visit relatives & i then persuade DH to detour to T or A on the way.i also try to use as many flop,moc etc as i can
