You did right! As you can probably tell as I'm in work posting on MSE not doing any Process Development lol! Oh, and the guy fixing my PC (and unblocking sites ) is on more than me, my age, who got 1 GCSE at school! :rotfl:

The beauty of my career history is the big firms moving in a bringing the salaries up. That's the thing about IT - most of it can be learnt 'on the job' and as you've seen, anyone with no formal education can make a go of it. How high up they get is another matter as the well paid jobs are the kind I do like systems architect.

Quite a few years ago that would have been me fixing PCs (well a female version with a few O levels). No A levels in anything or shampoo as someone asked earlier. :rotfl:

The asda cheapies are all included in the 342. :-)
Cheapest I saw was 15p for gel.

There's no comparative product in Ts though. The problem is that Ts is dearer most times than As so you need to trawl through the cheap stuff in As and see if there's a matching product in Ts and make sure it's in the 342.

Fourp has been taken to hospital (in an ambulance :eek:) for a brain scan.
He's got intense pain on one side of his head for 36 hours & his left side isn't that responsive.
I went into the Dr's with him as he was rocking with pain in the waiting room :eek: but credit to the Dr he took him seriously
I'm awaiting what to do. I managed to gallop home & pack a bag for him to take just in case he's kept in.

Snap-ant i hope Fourp is ok

1- Mr Shoes -- an exclusive for you. Im not posting this on the grabbit fragrance thread cos it's obvious Mr shoes is monitoring it - as all the body sprays that had extra points on them yesterday have been stopped today.
But I found a new one 4711 Body Spray Atomiser 100ml - £4.39 and gives 500 points (and smells lovely) :T

2- Staples - picked up my 3 gifts ok. The back to school kit isn't worth it IMHO (tiny little notepad, tiny ruler and a book cover)
The eco bag and piggie usb are quite nice. They asked me to pay a total of 3p to get the till to work, which is strange , but I didn't mind.

3 - Asda APG used my £17ish one today without any problems. That is only the 2nd time I've had one over £10, so I don't do that often. I picked a young student type gal, and she was really nice about it. :cool:

4- Treated myself to 3 new tops to help replace the 48 that I got rid of this week, and one was a DKNY (this season) from TK MAxx - retail price £110.00 - I paid £24.99

The very best thanks for asking. Took a step back from here and although there have been some hiccups, it's been a great couple of months. Been lovely spending quality time with the kids and not chasing deals or spending hours on here each night trying to keep up. I should join the skipping folk as I pop in now & again but skim most stuff

Did the house move go ok and did your DS get sorted with school ok?

Had to come out of lurkdom to say that I've got everything crossed for 4p. Please give him my very best wishes and massive hugs to you both :A:A

ASDA Smartprice Conditioner (500ml)
24p

Tesco Everyday Value Conditioner (500ml)
24p any 3 FOR 2

If they compare (which they do on MSM) then I don't see why not. If that's right then a nett cost of 22p.

Wow that would be bargain of the year better than the JF 3 4 £2.
