  • Well, I have got to go and continue my panicking! Have to check my swimming costumes still fit and aren't going "weird" like these lycra things do, we have to check the suitcases are still in one piece (somewhere in the loft!), have one or two things to add to the list of to -dos (have to pick up some of those "in case" tablets as DD took last ones to Spain. Also we refused to pay £40 for in flight meals so need to stock up on filling snacks to go with the sarnies we will get at the airport (fresher than buying the night before!). Planning on taking a small coolbag for those too!

    I normally have 6 months to plan for a holiday. We knew we would go on holiday soon, but wanted all-clear for OH's ankle from hospital first and for him to finish antibiotics. Both things happened, then we found this holiday, and I have 5 whole shopping days to deal with things (including Sunday!!!) .

    HELP :eek::eek::eek:
    What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare

    well well ms anderson not exactly telling the truth are we ? heres your quote from mse - "Trouted again! I was soooo embarrassed!
    Went into T to do a shop using sum vouchers, which included 2 beanz vouchers. The SA said I have to have these checked as we received a memo saying there's a lot of fakes
    She called the supervisor whom took a good 10 mins to come, she then called a manager. He took forever to come also. Then they went through every voucher I had (all10 of them) I only had 2 of each voucher though as I'm way to scared of using more than 2 at a time. By this time everyone was looking at me and complaining about waiting. I was bright red with embarrassment. Someone in the que said where's he got all them from, someone else says what he doing with all them. I felt like I was in a freak show. They then went off and started to look at the CCTV screen (different shots) don't have a clue what that was about. eventually came back and said I couldn't use the beanz one as I had 2 with the same bac code and they said we have to keep these as they are fake. I have never been so embarrassed in all my life. It really was awful. Don't think I will be risking it again. Half an hour later and my ears were still red and burning, but not sure if that was with the embarrassment or fuming."

    another of your quotes ms anderson "Afternoon everyone. Hope your all well and happy. Been out all day so lots of catching up to do. But just noticed the pork ain't working anymore I bought 3 expecting £10 pp but got £1.11 oh well it had to end at sum point. I mean there's a limit to how much pork you can eat or store, and I got a freezer full."

    oh yet another quote from ms anderson - "No I use 2 different stores. Sometimes even a third store which is 15 miles away. This is the second time it's happened. I did do DTD last year just after the vouchers were capped at £20. Never really had any problems back then though."

    your vouchers were fake ms anderson as you well know cos your on other websites telling people how many youve printed out, its people like you that make everyone elses shopping more expensive, i trust that tesco will do the right thing and make sure you are dealt with according to the law on this.

    arent you happy with your freezer full of pork that youve scammed out of tescos for free ms anderson?

    Who ever this sad individual is I think you need to get a grip and get out more. Are you bitter as you missed out on the pork oh boo hoo.

    Palaplay has no idea what the law is. They have no idea if a set of vouchers are fake as they've not evewn seen them.

    Backside, hot air, talking out of...........full of it. Rearrange to make more sense then they do. :D

    You might find that's Scamps stomping ground :)

    Did you manage to get any plenty at cc? I cleared the shelf on Sunday but when I went back on Monday there were more so I had those too. Pretty sure they would have restocked. I haven't been since

    I don't buy kitchen roll at all, so you can enjoy it without worrying about me nabbing it all :D
    No, Mr A, that is NOT 'Great news'!!:D

    Wombling totals: Oct = £243.32 - £93.32 over target!
    Nov Wombling Tally: £27.36 so far... behind target :(

    I wasn't worried so much about you nabbing it all, more the other way round :)

    Please don't think that we all think that way. Clearly we don't, and I am stunned they someone wound go to the effort of creating a new Facebook just to do that. That is beyond contempt.

    What comes around does indeed go around xx

    Here's hoping...

    can't believe i've spent over £11 on butter! But left half on the shelf for the next person, if anyone near me.

    Strange, I added a comment on the Tesco page a few minutes ago and it's disappeared.

    I think it is. It would be good to set up a F* group and move over there or put this board on discussion time ;)

    However that is a pain as you need to keep getting logged in.

    We're planning on making use of the buses - might have to ask how to get hold of some of the local pesos rather than the tourist ones then - sure some of the staff will help! Rather over pay them on exchange than have an upset bus driver!

    The hotels are government owned so don't bank on them helping you out as it a big no no and they can get a right bollocking for it.

    I found a little old lady selling cat and dog sandwiches out of her kitchen window, I paid in tourist money which she was glad to get her hands on and gave me a bag full (literally) of local money as my change.:beer:

    Bus drivers will not take the tourist money though, it's more than their life is worth to have that dropped in to their cash box (sealed and only opened at the depot by the cash office) and they couldn't give you change anyway.

    Of course, all this could have changed since I was last there, but who knows.

    You know the big red double deckers that do the city sightseeing tours in various cities all over the world? Havana has them, about £5 a ticket for a day.
