    I'm not great with words but before I sign off I would like to say that it has been superb to see the Elite come together to support one of their own at a difficult time.

    I'm proud of you all!

    Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times and I'll smash your face in. :D

    I was going to ask the same thing.gravy granules N/A
    Loreal wipes N/A.I have checked and they are still there.Should have had £2 back.

    Just the way it goes with price checker. Sometimes an item will be out of stock and sometimes it won't compare for no obvious reason.

    My DS thought I was slowly going loopy today because I've been so teary so I told him about what had happened to Alan and Susan 3Dogs, he said 'was that the man with the funny hats?' I didn't even remember showing him the photos but he did :)

    DS's been happy enough to be in our own house finally (3 days now) and to be left to put his Wii and his dads PS3 up and was only when he'd done the last one and powered it on that a reminder came up on the screen saying 'Florida this month, hopefully :) '
    He turned to me and said 'is this why you've been so upset for the last few days? Dad would be happy that you've decided to go ahead with the holiday and so am I'
    DH and I had decided that the holiday would be a good one for between primary and secondary schools so had been talking about it in the weeks before he died and were going to book it the day after he died.
    I wasn't going to book it but DS said Dad would be so cross with me for not having something to look forward to but now it's only a few days away (Saturday we go) I don't know how I feel. I know it'll be hard but hopefully DS will have a good time

    I hope you and your DS enjoy your holiday, Disney is a wonderful place for you to start new memories.

  • Just had my first DTD :)

    Terry's Chocolate Orange had a SEL saying half price £1.37 so grabbed myself 2.

    Went through at £2.75 each so, went to CS desk and got refunded £5.52 then, as I was leaving I noticed at the bottom of the receipt that £2.50 had been taken off as the TCO are now on 2 for £3.

    So effectively I was paid £2.52 to take them away :D
