    Did you get a certificate of posting, and is the value of the parcel less than £52
    ?
    Recorded does not give you any more protection than normal when it comes to making a claim for a lost/ damaged parcel and is essentially a waste of money. If it is worth more then you need special delivery which costs much more.
    Proof of postage is all you need to make a claim.

    Yeah, I got proof of postage.:) The value was just less than £80 but if it does go missing I'll just claim for the £52.:beer:

    The people 3 houses down have painted the 6ft high fence in their back yard black. I'm all for folks expressing themselves and their tastes, but we have a view of it from our upstairs windows and it's really an eyesore.
    Now who in their right minds... I ask you, BLACK?! th_ohgeez-1.gif

    3:41am is just obscene!

    Did you remember to ask the doctor certain questions?

    Slipped my mind :rotfl::rotfl::)
    Something unexpected happened which made me smile and still continues to make me smile.

    Darn that newsletter. Whoopsie time is soon about to become a lot busier.....




    spillthebeans.gifSpill the beans... Supermarket staff, tell us reduction policies
    Many enjoy hanging around supermarkets near closing time to bag a bargain, but since different supermarkets mark down perishables at different times, it's hard to know when. We'd like to hear from insiders to find out when to go, what to buy and any other tricks to help MoneySavers.

    I should say so as he said it on tv this morning too, told everyone noon first reductions, between 5-6pm for bigger reductions then around 9pm for the great reductions....
    been ill since 1am last night with migraine and then started vomiting overnight and this morning, spoke to dr he wanted to come out to see me said no (house too untidy lol) nobody to pick my medication from drs surgery waiting on my son coming back from work so he can go nd get it for me. can't stay on computer any longer. hope everyone is well nd getting some good bargains. going back to bed xxxxxxxxxx

    Hope you feel better soon :A

    Not sure if I've had a good idea or not.

    Huggies Pure wipes ... S= B1G2F @ £2.59 ... A = £1 each

    Buy 3 in A for £3 and after APG get 3 for £2.33 ... 78p (ish) each. Of course no Nectar or CC points. Is this good?

    (I have £1 MOCs from baby box as well)

    Sounds good, especially if you have the £1 MOCs.

    I did similar with billingtons golden caster sugar. Its £1.68 in As but just £1.44 AND B2G1F in S's. It compared as planned and so i got 3 bags in A for £2.59 (2x£1.44=2.88, less 10%) or 86p each *whoop whoop*

    Just remember APG is different to Ts pricecheck. Yku have to buy 8 different products and at least 1 must be comparable
