    I haven't used mine yet and as its for £17.92 I've been wondering if it will be accepted at the till or whether it will have to be done at CS.
    Are may people experiencing problems redeeming the ones where we bought the 4 B&J deals?
    I'm going to go to T's tomorrow evening while the footie is on so will use mine then.

    I got told that I can't use the price check at the ordinary till and had to go to customer services:eek:

    Men are just Happier People

    What do you expect from such simple creatures?

    Your last name stays put.
    The garage is all yours.
    Wedding plans take care of themselves.
    Chocolate is just another snack.
    You can never be pregnant.
    You can wear a white T-shirt to a water park.
    You can wear NO shirt to a water park..
    Car mechanics tell you the truth
    You don't have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt.
    Wrinkles add character
    People never stare at your chest when you're talking to them.
    New shoes don't cut, blister, or mangle your feet.
    One mood all the time.
    Phone conversations are over in 30 seconds flat.
    You know stuff about tanks.
    A five-day holiday requires only one suitcase.
    You can open all your own jars.
    You get extra credit for the slightest act of thoughtfulness.
    If someone forgets to invite you, he or she can still be your friend.
    Three pairs of shoes are more than enough
    You are unable to see wrinkles in your clothes
    The same hairstyle lasts for years, maybe decades.
    You only have to shave your face and neck.
    You can play with toys all your life.
    One wallet and one pair of shoes one colour for all seasons.
    You can wear shorts no matter how your legs look.
    You can 'do' your nails with a pocket knife..
    You can do Christmas shopping for 25 relatives on December 24 in 25 minutes.

    I'll just take the great big "sorry that the end of your finger looks dead" one.

    The steristrips came off by accident on Sunday but it had been a week couldn't get any anywhere so settled for boots ones which are rubbish & its taken me over half an hour gently coaxing them off & finger doesn't look too clever :.... (

    If the surgery nurse can't see you, there should be a district nurse available, even at weekends.

    What did you have to do.... Pay the full amount at the till, then take your price check to CS and they gave you a refund?
    My husband says he will leave me if I don't stop shopping......... God I will miss that man.
