    Just back from W.Avenue Tesco. Loads of 50p PG Tips, both hint of Earl Grey and Evening tea. The pyramids, same B/C, scanned at £1.48. Thank-you to MrsB for the teabag find, bought a few boxes of the Earl Grey one. My husband loves it, personally I think it smells and tastes as if the cups have not been rinsed of washing up liquid...:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: but then I not drink any tea at all...:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    While at CS desk having points added someone was complaining that he bought cereal and no petrol coupon. CS lady told him offer starts tomorrow. He showed her advert in paper and in very small print it does say from tomorrow. He received a refund on the cereal. He had bought 48 pack Weetabix and I think the second box was Nestle Oats and More.
    I tried to look over his shoulder at the advert but not able to see much..problem with being short...:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    CS lady not know what other cereals included but she didn't seem to think it was all cereals.

    Another leo then. :D
    It's mine on Sunday and we are staying in Southampton for a couple of nights (£10 a night travel lodge. ) so we can take our little one to paultons park, peppa pig world. I can't wait to see her face. She adores peppa pig. I will have to check out T's while I'm over that way too. :)

    You will love paultons park, I go every year with my daughter and my two grandsons, we have a great time and luckily every time we have arranged to go the sun has been shining.

    Have a lovely time, bit jealous as we have not been this year yet!

    I would not bother going to Bursl*don Ts as never seem to have much in the way of glitches. :( although I could be wrong and someone gets there first :rotfl:

    Yeah, but once you reach 113 you are technically back in your teens.

    I'm absolutely livid right now!

    I've just tried to return these shoes to Clarks and I've basically been told to get stuffed. The best they were willing to offer me was a 50% refund.....on a gift card, which is no use to me as I never want another pair of Clarks shoes again!

    Despite them only being two months old they aren't fit for purpose (which is what I told her) and that where the ball of my foot is shouldn't be worn through. One shoe is letting water in!

    I ended up raising my voice and the manager said "don't shout at me or I'll have Martin here remove you from the shop" Poor Martin looked terrified when he turned around and saw me.

    After a bit more discussion she offered me head offices number to take it up with them. I asked if she would replace them and it was a flat no. She said they had been heavily warn and abused. I don't bloomin go anywhere to wear them out! I pointed out that I'm a big chap and that's how the insides are sunken but nonetheless a £45 pair of shoes shouldn't be wearing through the soles in 6 weeks! I raised my voice again and she went to get Martin to throw me out. I then said "Leave blood y Martin out of this, he might be 6ft but he's all of 5 stone wet through, he isn't going to get me out of this shop, but I'll warn you now, I'm autistic and I DO NOT like being touched so if he so much as lays one finger on me I'll break his arms." Poor Martin stepped back in horror.

    Where do I really stand with this? I'm pretty sure I'm entitled to a full refund or at the very least, a replacement pair?

    Post something on Clarks Facebook page and see what they say.

    I used to get there first lol, had plenty of good stuff. I moved last year but I know there is one other mse'r who goes there, she used to leave glitchy bits hidden for me and vice versa.
    Love paultons park!
