Don't ever say sorry for ranting on here:)I think quite a lot of us if we're truthful will agree with a lot of what you're saying. Athough I don't work away from home I understand the kids bit totally;)I'm dreading DS going to uni but part of me is really excited that me and DH can do exactly what we want;) without questions and also looking forward to having a tidy house:)

My brother was like this to my parents, they worked in London in the week and came back home at weekends, my Brother who at the time was 30 moved back in and was nothing but rude and awful to them at weekends, my mum use to get really upset..

it is because they treat the house like it is theirs but without the responsibility of house ownership, a bit like a hotel, I use to tell my Mum all the time to tell him to get out, but they never did, he moved out when they retired though

I have found the greens coupon on the other board but am having great difficulty in just picking out the part of it i want/need (on mac) - would anybody have a pdf copy that they are going to put into their recycling bin, as my bin is pretty empty at the moment and i wouldn't mind getting rid of it for you.

Recycling is brilliant - all that stuff we are keeping out of landfill :j:j:j:j

Good morning,

Firstly thanks to Rooted Nomad for that special offers website, I went to Mr T last night, first store nothing except Ariel ood sel (sadly don't like Ariel) left it on the shelf.

Next store 6 bottles of Isla Negra Chardonnay dtd , again Ariel ood sel, left on shelf.

Off to next Mr T, picked up 6 bottles Gran Famila white dtd , had to remove sel for CS as she couldn't leave the desk, left the ood sel for the red and rose, maybe pop back today:D:D.

Next store picked up 6 bottle of Isla Negra Rose dtd , again still had ood Ariel signage.

Then the next one picked up 6 bottles of the Gran famila Red dtd .

By now it was 21:30 so went to 1 final picked up 6 Isla Negra white and 6 red . After a bit of a discussion CS came back to say the manager had agreed to sell it at the reduced price this time only.

I said thanks they then spent 15 minutes messing around, I then dropped into the conversation how will that work with dtd , off she went to the Manager again eventually came back and said I could have dtd but not the wine discount lol, but when it was entered through the system they had to give me the discount, what a shame:D.

I popped into Mr S on the way home and picked up some shandy and another 6 packs of the beer, so all in all I spent 98p on shandy and 5p on a bag of walkers crisps (after my vouchers):D:D.

I didn't bother with the whoopsies, or wombling, thought I should concentrate on the wine, I still haven't made it to Mr A to pick up some of that sparkling wine, I think it's a bit expensive after last night.

Ok.... what time does the party start???? OMG.. well done you...

Afternoon everyone xx

Ive got 2 freezers like this, one in my utility and the other in the garage, trust me, even if you had 5 of them, you would still fill them!!!!! mine's full of DTD BBQ meat, pork & pizzas!!!! My OH got home from work one day last week and started cooking supper.. when I got home he told me that there was nothing in the freezer that he could put straight into the oven, like fish fingers!!!!

Morning everyone. Been a bit AWOL lately.

i have been having some mental health issues recently and finally plucked up the courage to go docs yesterday. I am so glad i did, i had the most helpful doctor i have seen in years and has referred me to therapy and not just some tablets. I just don't feel i can talk to anyone at the minute.

I have a few week off work now to try and make myself feel better.

Feel a bit stupid really as lots of you are going through far worse at the moment.

3dogs its lovely to see you posting again.

I popped on the love brands FB page this morning and they have a new coupoon- £1 off Nescafe Original, Nesquick or Nestle cereals. HTH

Aww I hope you feel better soon :A

Woop, just got an airmail letter from the USA with £10.50 of revlon vouchers, emailed them last week about a disappointing product
If anyone has the £2 off l'oreal cosmetics this super liner is half price in T's at £3.24, making it £1.24

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.

Rmp was the poster urging caution to Misslaid yesterday regarding alerting Tesco to the pork glitch!!!:rotfl:

Morning all -hope everyone is well:) i had a go at the quiz and got 9/10 not too bad, but what i don't get is how some of you manage to complete it so fast??? im not a dummy by any means ( though im sure OH will tell you different) but i just cant get a good time no matter what i do

And now for my good news - I managed to PRINT from SSM on a MAC :j:j:j:j i know its hard to believe i have been trying to do it for weeks and then this morning found a way around it:T:T:T

I know someone else was saying yesterday or the day before that they couldn't do it either so here is my mini guide :rotfl::rotfl:

Go to FB and find the love brands page
click on the try/win tab and find a coupon you want to print click on this and it will tell you to download the printer.
Down load printer and then click on install go through the install process (it wouldn't let me print what i had chosen off their site)

Go to SSM website choose a voucher and then click on print and whoop whoop I did it :j:j:j:j:j

I am just so excited - this has really made my week, been feeling a bit down and this has well and truly lifted me, and also had a phone call from friend and she realised how upset and low i was so is coming down first thing in the morning to spend the rest of the week with me to cheer me up a bit. MY working away from home is really getting to me at the moment, i only get to go home for one week a month, yet when i do get home my kids who have recently both moved back in with us make me feel as if im in the way:(:( i pay a good chunk of my wages into the house each month, i always go home with a car full of goodies courtesy of T's, A's etc; yet when i ask them to help out a bit i.e. tidying their rooms, walking the dog, doing the dishes etc i am made to feel like im the worst in the world, and when OH did ask them they took no notice, really taking the urine out of him - winds me up big time!! they are quite happy to take, take, take but not to give:mad::mad: i have just got to the point now and i know that some of you will think im being harsh, that i just want them both out - they are not kids anymore and should stand on their own two feet - they're 26 and 19. I want some time back with OH where we can do what we want without being questioned all the time, and yes to have nooky again - thats if we can remember what to do :rotfl::rotfl: its been so long:(

Sorry for my rant just wanted to get it off my chest and i know you lot are super good at listening without judging

Thanks xxxxxx

It's good to get it off your chest. I often feel the same. I do everything for my lot (all grown up adults now) but you never get appreciated at all, I think most of them think the world owes them a living.
I'm glad your spirits have been lifted a bit :A
