    OMG OMG OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 :eek::eek::o:o:o:o:o:o:o:o:o

    I just got myself in such a state in T's :o:o:o:o More so than usual atleast ;):p:o:rotfl:

    Had a basket of whoopsied fruit/veg and bakery including a bag of potatoes so basket was quite heavy. There was a lot of fruit/veg whoopsies so I stood patiently waiting but by the end was struggling with the weight. Also, very unusually the fresh reductions hadn't taken place! There wasn't masses but there were a few things I was interested in so I was going between both reduction areas. In the end I descided I'd have to call it a day to get to M's before closing so paid for what I had (81p ;):p) And just as I paid at SS, I heard the reduction gun whirring to life ;);):cool::rotfl: So I carted the bagful and a french stick back over to the fresh reductions and saw they were doing 90% reductions (never happens in my store) so grabbed the last 2 fish products in 2 for £7/3 for £10 and 2 packs bbq food which I thought was bogof. I was even more impressed because he'd stuck the wrong labels on each product meaning they were cheaper.....:p:p:p:p:p:p:p:p

    The savvy amongst you will have spotted my novice error here :o:o:o I didn't!

    Next thing I get a tap on my shoulder and it's the SA from SS. I had been so distracted by the whoopsies.....I'd left my handbag at the till!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :eek::eek::eek::eek::o:o:o:o:o

    Off I trot, handbag now in tow thinking, oooh pick up a choccie bar free and a couple packs veg....:T:T:T Get to SS thinking I'd have 3p to pay :jScan first item (trout would you believe it ;):rotfl:) and it comes up lamb dinner.....awwwwwwwwwwwwwww carp!!!!!!!!!!! Obviously this means now, no multisaves! :o:o:o

    Was so tempted just to pay and be done with it but I have no freezer space to spare and the chicken looked a bit ropey so asked SA to cancel as I'd forgotten something :p Promptly returned everything to their rightful place and grabbed a handful of Real foods and price flops on the way out! :o:o:o

    Made it to M's with mins to spare for a couple of 9p whoopsies :cool: However in carting the basket around, I've put my back out :eek::eek::(

    Ahhhhh the exploits of a serial whoopsier, living the high life :cool::cool::cool::cool::cool::cool::cool:

  • Evening everyone, hope you are all well. Hugs to those who are not so good x

    Here's an interesting one to ponder over... So, a few weeks ago I exchanged some Clubcard vouchers to double up £85 of vouchers doubled up to £170. Anyway, the website was mucking about a bit and wouldn't let me input the vouchers and in the mean time the prices went up on the items I wanted to buy so I had a bit of a moan and they agreed to refund the exchanged vouchers back onto my account.

    The refund hasn't happened but I had another look and decided there was something else I wanted so I ordered that and it took £110 off from the vouchers that I had previously inputted that hadn't been going through before. I figured this now left me £70 to spend and if I couldn't find anything I needed I would give them a call to chase up the points refund to my account once the exchange was over.

    Well, anyway, tonight I have just put a few things in my basket with the intention of using up the other £70 of vouchers and it has again deducted £110 from the voucher codes that were used last time :eek:.

    What do I do???

    Evening all. Went to my local to use my B&J price check and had a half an hours wait while they decided if I could or could not use it (they said yes in the end how kind of them!) They were all under the impression that it is only £10 now no matter how much I explained this was done before the changes. Also had to listen to the trouty sa b!tching about people using vouchers, people bringing in small price checks (in her words why would you bother its a waste of time) and the fact people moan about being overcharged, (again her words- how many people get undercharged and come back in about it) I was ready to say sod it and leave but I wouldn't have had anything for tea! :mad: Anyway sorry for the rant hope everyone is ok and had a good day.

    Everything will be ok in the end, and if it isn't ok then it isn't the end :)

    Egg shells crushed and sprinkled round also sharp sand around the plants, Seaweed is good too :)

    Done the eggshells trick around my hostas. Got so many pots and tubs that it will take me weeks to get enough to do them!
    Thanks for the [STRIKE]sensible[/STRIKE] helpful advice :)
    My husband says he will leave me if I don't stop shopping......... God I will miss that man.
