Evening everyone, not much time to catch up tonight but sending out hugs, congrats and birthday wishes.

Have to confess that I have been very non mse today. I have an interview tomorrow and decided to get my hair done on the way home from work tonight. I didnt ask how much it was and just went in, but I spent more on my hair cut than I have ever done on a weekly shop :eek::eek::eek::eek:. No make that a month :eek::eek: (even before I found you guys- when I was a spendthrift) I have never spent this much on myself before and feel really guilty now.

Haven't told OH yet and I wont if I can help it. Trouble is, I got home and no one noticed, dd said that it didn't look any different, OH said that it looked shiny but didnt say anything else. Was hoping that it would make me feel more confident but now I just feel annoyed with myself for wasting the money. :mad:

To top it all went into Tosco (local express) for some whoopsies (vain attempt to justify the spend) and had an awful experience. Used the ss till and the till would not recognise any of the reductions, sa was really grumpy that she had to get up off her chair at the counter and help me. My dd was helping pack the bag and she moved an item and it said "unexpected item.. etc ..." the sa came to the till and shouted at my daughter for moving the bag. :eek: I was fuming. :mad:
Did not want to tell the sa what I thought of her in front of my daughter but told her to leave it and consoled my daughter who was crying by this time. The sa then decided to pick up my shopping, throw it on the floor and shouted that is what happens when you move the bag. I left the store, shopping and all and have complained to HO via the survey website thingy. (Do you think they will read this or should I call them?)

I know that it can be stressful working in T's and I am always polite to the shop assistants but that was unbelievable. Think that my dd was more shocked than anything, she is only 8, a really good girl who only wanted to help.
Needless to say that have wrung my hands through my expensive hair cut and now look like I have been dragged through a hedge backwards. Have to laugh or I will cry.

I bet you look beautiful men never notice anything lol
best of luck at your interview tomorrow hope it goes your way x

A very good evening everybody :wave:

Well our planned Tosco shop didn't go quite according to plan. It went even better. :rotfl:

£27.74 shop and paid the massive sum of 34p :eek: Although really we saved 55p as we also bought spuds that were on tomorrows list. Good job we did or we would have been 55p under the amount of coupons/vouchers we used.

Had the best guy on check out you could ever wish for, cheerful, joking, laughing, really talkative. Put every coupon through without batting an eyelid, any that didn't scan he just put to one side and overrode the lot at the end. :T

Plus should get a PP for around £2.50 tomorrow. :cool:

Now to try to catch up again from earlier. Can you all chat less please.
