    If physio says I can drive tomorrow:cool: I've got to work in the afternoon, but then I'm going to drag Nannylala on a total roadtrip. Wombling tin cans and receipts in T's carpark then inside looking for socks & stuff. Then on to A's for a little womble and to use a few coupons, then onto Mr S's to womble BM vouchers :T:T:TObviously each one of these is going to coincide with the appropriate whoopsie time;)

    According to this post on the main board

    https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/3935713

    T's have already stopped the 25% off wine offer and the prices have gone back up too early.
    A good chance for a DTD if you get there before midnight and it's in all T's

    Edit.....Locarr already spotted and reported on it!!

    Edit again....and Twinkleys!!!
    My husband says he will leave me if I don't stop shopping......... God I will miss that man.

    I have never done a coupon shop that big before so made OH come at lunchtime but as i say the SA was great. :D

    Hope you are ok Bubbs.

    If your OH was not a MSE convert before I bet he is now:)

    thanks guys but i'm having one of my blonde moments as am still no clearer, when i have heard people pressing the "using own bags" button on the ss tills, i am sure i have heard it say" wait while we assess how may bags you have"

    doesn't it weigh your bags or something, how can you get points for no bags????

    dippy celebrate cofuddled again:o:o:o:o

    I'm think that's when you have selected 4 or more bags. As the SA comes over to count how many you have.

    And it doesn't weight your own bags :)

    We went extreme couponing earlier!

    All of these were either safe coupons or manufacturers ones (ie the kleenex ones from the starter kits, some ellas kitchen ones that were sent to us etc) and all used in the correct t&c - i only used them all at the same time to help me get to 80 to use the 10pound off coupon.

    It was great, i felt like i was on the programme!!!! I must say though the SA guy was great checked a few that i had the product then gave up and just said i take it you have everything and put them all through.

    what moisturiser did you get,please? :P

    when you first get there it will give you the option to start or im using my own bags, if you touch that it will tell you to place bags in bagging area then press done. you then start shopping
    even if you havent at the end before you pay there is another channce to touch the own bags used part of the touchscreen, its on the payment type coupons used etc page/screen
    touch own bags used it will then give you the option to say how many just touch number3, it will say in a loud voice something like your green points are now being added. ive had a small amount of shopping in t's spindly carriers as its shouted that out but no one has ever come over to take the points off me. (i do normally used the sturdy reusable bags)

    Can't even get a cheap beer or bottles of wine to console ourselves with either! Think I'm going to emigrate to England ;) :rotfl::rotfl:

    Part of the Furniture 10,000 Posts Name Dropper Xmas Saver!
    Celebrate - at my local Sainsbobs, the printer that the brand matches come out of are set slightly back from the SS tils, so some people don't notice them print out, esp if it's busy/they're in a rush/got screaming kids etc.

    i think some also fall out of people's bags into the trollys, some can't be bothered with them 'it's only a few pence' attitude, and some don't realise what they are, unless you really check it's easy to confuse them with the ones that just say how much you've saved.
