    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker I've been Money Tipped!
    NOt long home from T's with 4 (free) different kinds of MaM!!!

    I'm so happy (sad I know). D*ndee's R*v*rside have lots of varieties!! I got 2 and DS got 2.
    I didn't see any mags there, but they have loads of flops. (Sth Rd have loads of mags in a display next to the lifts if you need some).

    In P*rth Sth st have no Mams; Edi Rd have the smoked sausage @ £1, dried up bacon and Ham joints. Going to Creef Rd tomorrow, so will report what they have in stock.

    It's only a game

    Here is a pic of Lancashire oven bottom muffins bought from local pie shop :D

    They're just mini stottie cakes ;);)
    We're looking for a dog/puppy to complete our family at the moment, I hadnt considered that it would take 6 months to house train it though!! :eek: Might have to look for an older one that is already trained!

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Remembering that the pup would be 2 months old when you got it and it can take a little as 2 weeks to housetrain them, I would still go for a pup .......... a rescue one if you can ;). while I was dropping the dogs into the kennels today, the rescue lady brought a pregnant Jack Russell !!!!! back from vets and was showing the kennel owners and me the scan she'd had. Vet could see 4 pups though could be more on other side, but they were big and she is small :eek: :eek: so they are going to have to keep a good eye on here and she may need a CS or the birth may kill the !!!!! :(:(. She was a little smoothie, short legged, sweet thing. They also brought in another slightly rough coated Jack that had been found as a stray. I have said before, but a pet rescue operates from the keenels as well as boarding, and, around here, they get a lot of Jacks in, as well as Staffies :(

    Transaction was suspended. I had to take it to customer services and have all my shopping scanned again and paid there with price check:mad:
    They shouldn't have needed to rescan it all. There is normally a barcode at the bottom, they scan that and it brings up the transaction. I would write on T's wall if you have the book of face and make them aware of it. As it's not just you that has happened to today hun.

    Celebrate, big hugs honey, I had a feeling something had gone off with not seeing you. You have my number so please do make use of it any time you are feeling down. Don't feel bad about it all, you have tried you best and quite frankly you deserve so much better! You are beautiful, clever, kind generous and so much more. Focus on the kids they will get you through x

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

    Sorry to hear things are not good for you at the moment Celebrate.
    Along with lots of others here, I've been there, done that and got the T shirt, but there's one thing I can tell you for sure is that it does get easier and there's an awful lot to be said for peace of mind.
    Take care xxxx
    My husband says he will leave me if I don't stop shopping......... God I will miss that man.

    Were any of them express stores?

    Yes!:j used 2 expresses. Never used them before so was a tad nervous but got the points added no problem:beer: more confident to do it again now:D handy as there's one only half a mile away from me. (plus next year at uni I'm living right next to one! about 3 minute walk:T)

    what till did you use? manned or self checkout?
    as manned tills can accept them no problem. So they were talking rubbish. Self checkout won't accept over £10

    plus they should have recalled the transaction! not suspend it. idiots!!

    I will try the express stores for my wombled points. Thanks

    I used the self checkout. They were talking rubbish but had no choice but to go along with it. They just make it up as they are going along

    agree with this entirely.
