    I was gonna ask last time you posted but didn't:o What is baby massage?

    baby massage is fab! used to take DS when he was a baby.

    They teach you how to massage baby, like when they are 6 weeks old, to keep their joints etc flexible, help them to sleep, help them to feel comfortable, big shock coming into a world full of noise, bright lights etc after being comfortable for 9 months.

    It is massage but for babies. So gentle, but fab for baby. Babies love it.

    MT, can you PM me please :)

    Farmville, not sure if you are aware, Tesco express are franchised operations. although they report to Tesco and use their stock, the shops are owned by people who have franchised tesco express from Tesco. So yes, slightly different people who work indirectly for Tesco.

    That isn't the case in my area, it is a shop owned and run by Tesco. Nice to see you around, better late than never :beer:
    Be thankful for what you have because it could all be taken away tomorrow.;)

    does anyone do the shopandscan research panel?

    is it worth it/whats it like? does it take up much time?

    thanks


    I haven't heard of this. I do the shop and scan as well, have done for years. I don't do the uploading of receipts though as too much hassle for 50p:cool:

    I'm gonna leave you all in peace for a while and catch up on my fb scrabble, and if OH is around to buy me drinks might go to the pub for the last hour:D

    Is it any wonder Tesco is in a mess???

    Surely if they are using Tesco name then they follow Tesco's rule book?

    Bizarre

    Tesco are a law unto themselves. The right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing. Fortunately, this can work in our favour!

    they are supposed to follow Tesco's rule book, ie the dtd etc. and mine has the signs up, but never found anything to try it. But they also charge a little extra for products found in the normal T, ie an extra 30p on fairy when on £1 in normal T, etc.

    But depends on manager running it.
