Well our grey card/paper bin is being emptied this morning and the lorry has not been yet so its full to the brim.
I came across a tsp spend $60 save 9 valid until the 19th. I am never likey to spend 60 in t (or anywhere unless a wine festival is on)
Are you an over-sixty and if so are you someone with capacity in their recyle bin for it ?
You will need guts for this trip, it is not for the feint hearted, creased and dirty and not shiny and bright but bcs are legible.“Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove. Every day will allow you, --will invite you to add something to the pleasure of others, --or to diminish something of their pains.”0 -
And 6 looks like a normal spend, not someone "bulk buying"
Hmmm wonder if that is the reason when I buy 12 bottles of wine online via grocery shop I only ever get a few e.g. 3 and they say nothing suitable to substitute with. Maybe they think Im out to get them somehow lol.
I usually do shopping online but got a few vouchers that I can only use instore, so am new to all this DTD etc.0 -

We asked the rental company if there was anywhere the driver would not take us. The response:
Everywhere nowadays in Madagascar there is a high risk of being attacked by night on the road. So, don't drive by night. During the day, there are no problem.
Especially Fort Dauphin area is full of raiders attacking cars in group of ten or twenty. They carry guns and shoot.
:eek:
More excitement
Also keeping an eye on the foreign & commonwealth office for travel advice.
Hello all.
This reminds me of when we went to Puerto Rico, the murder capital of the Caribbean, with DH's work. Nobody would stop at traffic lights at night in case they got attacked. We hired a car one day to go to the supermarket to get some gf food (a Ford Focus, nothing fancy), we hadn't gone half a mile before we saw an accident, but we had to drive on for our own safety. (There were plenty of locals around). When we went to put our shopping in the boot, there was a wire and a yellow tag hanging down. I said to DH "What's this?", then saw there was a picture on the tag showing what it was for. It was a quick release pull, in case you were abducted and shoved in the boot! 95% of the place looked like either a war zone or giant scrapyard., and you really didn't hang about if you were starting to attract attention, especially with DD with us.
All in all, Tenerife's more restful! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: (Though sorry to read about the forest fires, we saw one on our last night there but they seem to be getting worse).

Its a bit early to give up yet - I haven't had my results
back from yesterday either. There is no set pattern - usually they come the following day, sometimes much longer and , very rarely, they come back the same day!
Anyway, I don't think you can complain to Tesco about it - you would probably have to let on that you did a targetted shop in full expectation of getting your money back. Also, drawing attention to the pork glitch is unwise. Keep calm and almost certainly it will sort itself out later today.ELITE 5:2

Hi and welcome
One of the most important things to remember is that stuff like this is hit and miss. You win some, you lose some.
It will suddenly just stop working again, so its a chance that we take as to whether it is still working when we make the purchase of whatever it is that you are buying
And Tesco are the most hit and miss...some people get them back really quick, others take longer. Quite often they come in at the same timeI’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Health & Beauty, Greenfingered Moneysaving and How Much Have You Saved boards.
