11+ Elite Coupon-Crazy Glitching Mega-Bargainhunters. Part II

Ok, here goes. Sorry it's so long.....

I took DS to feed the ducks in town then over for a play at the park before coming home. I went into the fenced bit of the park with DS and left my dog outside who sat at the gate whining. There was a man in the same bit of park with his DS who came over to me and said to let my dog in. He said that his DS likes dogs so it would be fine. I thanked him and went to the gate to get the dog when two women approached with a little girl. I asked if they minded the dog coming in to which the older lady (50's sorry) hereonin known as Grumpy Mare (GM)
GM - 'yes I do mind actually!'
Me - 'That's fine, it's just that this gentleman said to let her in but it's ok,' and smiled.
GM then tutted and scowled at me then shook her head.
Me - 'You don't need to scowl at me like that, I asked, you said no, there's no problem.'
She then walked of muttering something under her breath. A short while later, my dog was running into the park and GM was coming through the gate. DS asked how the dog got in and I said 'That lady opened the gate and let her in.' I then went and put the dog back outside and she started the head shaking, scowling and muttering again.
Me - 'If there is something wrong can you please say it to my face rather than muttering behind my back'
She then started going red in the face and started roaring and shouting
GM - 'YOU JUST SAID TO YOUR SON THAT I LET THE BLOODY DOG IN WHEN I BLATANTLY DIDN'T.'
Me - 'Sorry but my two year old asked how the dog got in and I told him.'
GM - 'I DIDN'T LET THE BLOODY DOG IN!! WHY ARE YOU LYING TO YOUR SON ?'
Me - 'Well, sorry but you opened the gate and the dog got in. That is what happened so I'm not lying to my son.'
GM - 'WHY ARE YOU LYING TO YOUR SON??'
Me - 'Why are you screaming and shouting at me in the middle of a kids playpark?'
At this, I turned and walked of, still in the park. I wanted to stay for a while so as not to look like she had intimidated me. When I went to leave, DS wasn't coming so I went and took him by the hand and said 'Let's go and play in a park where there are no nasty ladies'.
The poor guy that was in the park gave me a look as if to say sorry.
I was just about in tears when I left. She was just so horrible

Well done if you read all that :rotfl:

Morning guys - despite the rain we are happy today Quick update before I go get my shower and get dressed as we have been watching the cricket since 8.30am in our pj's and England are doing well for a change :j

GP rang first thing and I explained things to him and he has left the completed DS1500 Special Rules report form at reception for me to collect. So I rang CAB and they gave me an appointment for tomorrow at 11am could have gone today but was at same time as our seeing Stoma Nurse at local hospital ward. Feeling upbeat as we are finally getting the financial side sorted :j :j

The rain has actually stopped now and as I look out the sky is getting brighter

Glad things have been sorted 3 dogs, that other woman obviously doesn't take pride in her work AT ALL :mad::mad::mad:

Fudge_Cake - hope you feel better soon. Take it easy and don't rush out. Your sinus/migraine sound soo like mine - you need to rest until you can sleep it off (but you know that;))

Noticed a lot of people have headaches of one sort or another today - must be this sudden chill me thinks: Hope you all feel better soon. Bring back the sunshine (washing's dry btw!!)

I agree - daughter wasn't offered anything they just had the hot cross chocs which she didn't like so I had to finish it (shame eh - lol)

Got to love children! Only DS1 would eat his. DS2 loudly announced I DON'T EAT RAISINS, YOU EAT MINE MUMMY. and DD1 ate the choc off the outside and left the middle as a present for me

oh well... :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

they're redelivering it on saturday. As long as they havent lost it first. I obviously dont have any QoC ID so it would be a bit tricky collecting it

Hope her back feels better soon. Bed is the bestest place to be right now I reckon!

Choccies are out of sight (but not mind!) for now while I get my diet back under control. I have gained far too much weight since my hols in september so I need to rein it back in again. I am like my dad, on rations! I will allow myself to eat one across easter if I am good :rotfl:

I'm doing the T run tomorrow, there's only one place for me tonight and thats on the sofa

Phewwww!! :T

Thank you will pass along your well wishes :A Night on the sofa sounds lovely but think I'm gonna take the dogs down the field for 20 mins, just a quickie today but need to get some fresh air!

:eek:You're a skinny minnie, you don't need to lose weight! But well done on rationing, keep letting yourself have treats though....moderation is key!

I dont think that *some* of the TV stuff is that bad really.

I used to go through tins and tins of Value baked beans, I loved them and they were the lowest in calories of all beans (105kcal for 1/2 can) but the packaging was changed about a year ago (maybe more?! ) and the calories shot up to over 150 for 1/2 can!! :eek::( I was puzzled because they taste exactly the same so wondering whether they were always that high and it was a mistake!

Poor you Sanya - these people can leave us really shaken. You did sooo well - standing up for yourself politely and assertively. I wish I could do that!

Hi All,

Update on today

1st T's nothing to be found at all and checked every label.

2nd T's 6 bottles of wine better then free
Linotti Pinot Grigio OOD SEL £3.99 went through at £9.99 each

6 X £9.99 = £59.94 - £3.00 discount = £56.94
Refunded £72.00:T

3rd T's finaly got my DTD refund for the 14 Sun Sports which was £105.00, She went to start advising me that as the difference is much more than paid would not get it but luckily i had called head office 2 weeks ago and got both her name and managers of store name who she spoke to so she came back to me glumly advising auth on this occasion:T:T

Sanya i think you handled that brilliantly. I hope she heard the "nasty lady" bit. I would have called her a lot worse, so very well done to you
