    Good to see you - just wanted to say thanks for the Imutua1 info. I requested my payment this week, easiest £30 ever!

    xx

    Glad to know that this contributed a mite to your OP. Hope everyone else who applied for imutual a/c remembers to request the payment soon. Money in our bank a/c is much better than it sitting in the provider's a/c, right?

    Have a good day, everyone!

    I have been selected as a book giver for World Book Night and will be getting 20 copies of this book. Are any of my fellow MFWs interested? If so, I can post a copy to you when I get hold of them (provided I find my cache of large-letter stamps from eons ago).

    Hoping to keep the grocery spending this month below £75. Thanks to Tilly for instigating this frugal January and now February - but my freezer is nowhere near empty and my cupboards are still full - no wonder DS2 tells me that I have a nuclear stockpile :-)

    Oh, yes please US - it's on my list of books to read :)

    How lovely :T, how did you get involved?

    One book earmarked for you, GG. I'll send you pm when I get it in hand. I applied through the freebies thread. I'll be distributing about 10 copies to friends at work, rest will go to neighbours and relatives.

    Hope at least some of my virtual friends here at MFW thread have been taking advantage of these TCB, £co, shopitize offers. I bought He1nz ketchup 700g today, it's only £2, but it was free :D

    Don't forget CP folks! Pity Nect@r adpoints is a bit lousy nowadays.

    Came by to say my iMutual is pending into my bank, apparently should be here 2nd March. Exciting! So thanks for link :)

    And would it be cheeky to say I'd love a copy of book too? It'll have a good home in my book room :)

    :rotfl:

    We have a spare room that isn't used, so I've filled it with all my bookcases and books, but GG is right, there are usually a couple of books kicking about the loo/sofa/bedside table.

    I think that's the first time anyone has ever called me posh :eek:
