    Well done Mr TS
    My hubby also works for a charity - not looking forward to when the funding comes up for review

    I think things are looking up for charities generally this year, everyone where OH works had to take a pay cut last two years and pays has been reinstated this year. Also quite a few jobs being advertised whereas this time last year redundancy notices being handed out.

    The charity OH works for has funding reviews frequently as different roles are funded for varying times by different organisations so we are relieved this post is secure for 3 years. In the past we never worried as they always seem to find alternative funding or move people around but this happens less and less now.

    Good luck to your OH when the review comes up. :)

    ok i'll spill, i have about 70:o

    Me too, and I didn't know about the coupon until Saturday morning :eek: (on hols Mon - Fri).

    I went for it at the weekend and today, different stores - I spread my custom around ;) 2 Palmolives (and something around 40p to deal with the - figure) x 3 transations at ss each time. Coupon all folded ready to go and change in my pocket - even prepared bags open before I started to speed things along! Family are well stocked up and will have sparkling digits for quite a while into the future :)

    Hi guys ... I think I'm only about half a day behind ... but I'm not sure I'll be able to catch up ... I'm exhausted! :(

    Anyway, I've just inputting some wombled receipts into T's price checker when I noticed this item and was wondering if it was worthy of further investigation???

    Evening all, not been on in a while for various reasons.

    Firstly DS and I spent Saturday in our new house. No house phone, no internet, no heating, no curtains, only 2 lights working due to no light bulbs (someone in my mum's house gave mine away!), no furniture except my new matress on the floor with new duvet and pillows.
    I spent most of the morning making sure it was dust free and all floors washed then we went to my aunts for a few hours to see my wee sumo of a cousin, he's 12 weeks old now and wears 9 - 12 months!!!!! For the first time in months I had a great nights sleep :) even DS said he'd had a great day.
    Sunday we went to a animal charity fundraiser in the middle of no where, didn't feel well but promised I'd go and take a friend down to it. Our boxer came second for the noisiesy dog! Had a good day but was so very cold that I jumped in the back of the car with the 3 dogs we took with us just to get a bit of heat.

    Didn't get on-line last night because I was so ill, couldn't keep warm or stop throwing up.
    Still feel bad but had to go out to use the last of my Palmolive vouchers (got 40 from various T's and Ses but shared them out with family and friends) also went to T's and spotted a Nerf gun SEL £11 was £44ish

    Congrats to Mr Tinyshoes and hope all goes ok for you Bubba (I think that's right) hope no more rain for your area tonight so all stays dry for your return home xxx

    Sorry for long post goodnight all

    Nothing to get excited about d'con_blue - it's their carrier bag with poppy design, probably Bag for Life or something like that ;)
