    Warning - disjointed post below:

    Thank you BlondyNurse for the new thread

    Boo to the BS glitch being semi-fixed this morning

    Who turned on the heat? It's almost midnight and I still haven't cooled down. Wombling in this heat is torture :(

    Someone mentioned Jamaica Ginger Cake - this and the golden syrup one are only 39p each in Home Bargains which is a darn sight cheaper than B1G1F at £1.30.

    Thank you to the OP for the kids book glitch. I was majorly trouted. I got told that the 3 for £5 offer worked on a per shelf basis and because I picked the Pirate one from shelf 3 and Disney ones from shelf 4, that's why it didn't work. I should have read the shelf labels and ignored the identical stickers. I've never heard such a pile of codswallop. Even the 2nd trout on CS knew that the Pirate book was the one causing the problem so instead of removing/fixing, the books were left there :mad:

    Thank you to another OP for the information on the 0800 phone app. Because of this I was able to phone CS from the store (who refused to honour the price - DTD wasn't even discussed). She asked to speak to one of the staff but given the attitude I got I declined so they're sending a giftcard for £8 and lots of humble apologies plus I have a clean receipt. Tempting but it was a bargain at £1 for 3 so will leave at that.

    Well done to MasterLala and all the other exam kids. It's a long and distant memory for me and not one I'm looking forward to repeating as the parent.

    Pringles didn't work. Wombles were useless but I did finally get enough to send off for the P&G picnic set (my last attempt had duplicate receipt entries so I had to start off again).

    I think that's everything :o Sorry but this heat is getting to me so signing off again. Nighty night everyone :A

    I knew I'd forgotten something - my PPs hadn't come back today but if I re-input the details they came back on screen. Just checked and still no emails.

    I've tried that also, but still nothing. Guess I will just have to hope it turns up tomorrow. Glad you got yours back :)

    The thing with the ginger cake is that there is/was printable vouchers to get these free and as they are BOGOF at T you received £1.30 off your shopping plus two free cakes :T
  • hello :o:o:o:o:o

    I know I'm becoming a stranger :eek::o

    work and packing getting in the way.

    But I thought I post this piece of interesting news.

    At-checkout voucher scheme gives Morrisons new targets



    Wombling at Mr M:eek::j:beer::T

    The retailer said it will have installed the Catalina coupon system in all of its 476 stores by the end of the month.

    Shoppers will receive a variety of coupons targeted at them on the basis of an analysis of their individual baskets - including vouchers offering money off their next shop and deals on major brands.

    :j :j :j I am all caught up on the old thread and on this one :j :j :j

    I made a frightening decision last night well it terrified me:eek: and I've gone and paid the deposit on my new car. I did go with the Nissan Note after all as it offered everything I wanted and needed. At the start of my search, I told myself that if I could get a new Note with all the specs I wanted, in the colour I wanted at a certain price I set myself, then I would go for it. Although I did look at 1-year-old cars, and also at the Meriva which proved too expensive, I did find my car at exactly the price I was looking for :j

    So, it is being registered for me to pick it up first thing in the morning in two weeks time - Saturday 1st September, with the new 62 plate ................. and I am very excited :j :j

    But, like I said, it is a very scarey thing to do, spend that much money on a car, when you've never had a new car before :eek: :eek: and never really had that sort of money before either :eek: :eek: However, Alan did want me to try to get a new car so he wasn't worried about me getting around, and having transport problems, so I am happy with my decision :D

    Happy new car xx :j:j if u were local to me I'd be spotting u out on the 1st... Admit it we all play that game

    Sorry, thank you for the new thread 'bloodynurse' (as someone called you, it made me :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:)

    Nikkilala - fantastic news about your son! :beer: Be careful that fan for the dog isn't burning out though, some of them can get incredibly hot if on for hours, my pedestal one does sometimes :eek:

    robstersgirl - at least yours says hello, ours says 'Get Lost' :rotfl:

    nahteb20 - well done her, those look brilliant!

    3 dogs - you totally deserve a nice new car, plus it's not like you're throwing money away, a car is an investment! I got a brand new car in 2005 and I was sooooo chuffed with it, I still love it now (it s Peugeot 206 estate), the dealership keep sending me offers trying to get me to 'upgrade' but I ain't parting with my lovely baby :D
