    Ooh yes, i'm a definite believer in RLT. Took it from 36 weeks when pregnant with DS. It's supposed to tone your uterus rather than send you into labour and make the pushing bit faster. I only had to push 3 times, there was no stopping him! :eek:
    Been taking it from 36 weeks this time too. Although have switched to tablet form in the last week as can't face the taste of the tea any more and was supposed to be drinking 3 cups a day :cool:



    Due date is the 14th July but was a few days early with DS so hopefully not too long.
    Under a bit of pressure to perform as my Mum has booked to go on holiday abroad for 2 weeks as of the 13th :eek:
    She knew my due date when she booked the holiday but 'it was a good deal'. I know I try to encourage her to be more MSE but it made me :mad::(

    My guess for Tiger cub is 26th Aug at 15.05 :D

    My guess for Logie bear cub is 7th July at 12.00 :D

    Jubilee babes!:T

    :mad::mad:
    Huge surprise T didn't get my order right.
    Well it's nearly right, but no bloomin' fuel voucher and I actually need it. Phoned CS and omg the guy couldn't have been more rude.

    Messaged the FB team as they have generally been very helpful in the past at sorting stuff out. Really pee'd off though . Need to get fuel tonight and I'm just about running on fresh air as it is *sigh*

    Should have know better really...

    :(

    Yeah Tesco are pooping poos.

    If you ever wanted an example of their carp service, the above is a good'un.

    Not so much a glitch but my first 1p item was the small boxes of Roses :T Had great fun with that. Scanning at the speed of light and running out the door :rotfl::rotfl: Wasn't brave enough to do more than 10 at a time though, so I did end up with a few bags of ten hanging about the house. We were sick of them in a couple of weeks :rotfl::rotfl:

    Can't think what my first glitch was though, I def got the jelly and custard one, but I can't remember if that was my first one though... What was the one before that?! :rotfl:


    my first glitch was OEP and i only got 1 lot of 3 cos the entire place had been lurkered :mad:

    My first 1p items were the trays
    My first 4p items were the shirts

    My last "bargain buy" was the bug and tar wipes

    going on the premise that everybody remembers their first time:)

    what was your firtst glitch/bargain after joining the site, mine was the jelly/custard /rice pudding glitch;)
    i remember it had been posted on the site for over a week before i was brave enough to try it. bought 3 jellies to try it out and then went back and bought 15 mixed. was shaking so much at self serve but what a feeling when i got home safely with my stash, kids thought i had gone mad as they were sat on display on the coffee table all night so i could look at them.
    went back and got 15 more the next day as well it was unbelievable:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    been really dire on the glitch and coupon front recently, and i think it makes us all a bit tense but i'm sure there's a mega-glitch just around the corner:rotfl:



    Mine was the passatta glitch, me and the O/h were giggling like school kids taking 12 boxes of pasatta a box of felix pouches a packet of opal fruit (whatever they are called now) and putting 5p in the ss till :)

    I couldn't remember what it was for .. toning your uterus sounds funny!! :rotfl:

    What a shame about your mum booking her hols then :( I'd be pretty mad tbh...

    Ok, I'll do the list for Logie - my guess is 13th July at 1.14am (sorry Logie, you'll be up all night if I'm correct).

    I'm off for a snooze but will check back and compile Logie's list :T

    I was trouted at Wembley stadium last year (take that) DD2 was pregnant so I gave her my bottle of vodka and coke (in a coke bottle) security went through our bags DD2 explained she needed coke for heartburn but they were having none of it. Didnt need it in the end though, got drunk on Robbie Williams:D:D

    Mine was the finish quantumatic starter kits £5 coupon. Bought them when they were half price so free:rotfl:
    i think these were before i joined :), i'm really jealous when i read about T's dtd back which was finished way before i joined but looked brilliant, although to be fair i'm a much savvier shopper now than i was so i'm still saving loads of money thanks to everyone on here:T think it changes the way you shop entirely as i don't buy things on a whim anymore and only buy what i really need and will use.:)
    mmm..... these strawberries make my breath happy mum ds

    On a strand of pure silver, I'll welcome each day
