    :santa2:Good Morning. I've beaten CW and jeferey:j:j
    I'm trying to catch up on my pm's and sort out all the info for the meet up. I need to know what time everyone is planning to get to the train station/gallery so that I can make sure I get there in plenty of time. The directions for the gallery/cafe say to "take the Metrolink from Piccadilly station (Altrincham or Eccles direction) to Mosley Street or St Peter's Square.

    The AA route map says the distance is Distance: 0.6 miles (show in km)
    Time: 0 hr 3 min from the train station to the gallery so it shouldn't take long on the Metrolink.;)

    As far as I know the confirmed people are

    Blue
    FFF
    FT
    Snowdrop
    CW
    Doc (plus a very bored daughter:cool:)
    AH
    Idlesaver

    Anyone I have missed or who wants to join us? I have no RSH codes left now, cept for £4.60 in 2 accounts, so if anyone sees any codes around then please let me/us know cos they now all need topping up for th enext meeting;)
    Be thankful for what you have because it could all be taken away tomorrow.;)

    Blue (or anyone else) will you email me the details, dates etc pretty please? If I can convince meself enough I would love to come (if that was okay). Blue are you driving?

    Sorry I haven't replied earlier FV:o:o The meeting is this Saturday at the Gallery Cafe http://www.manchestergalleries.org/shop-and-cafe/gallery-cafe/ and I reckon it will be from about 12 noon to roughly 3.30/4pm or whenever you wanna leave.;) Some people may turn up at 12 and leave at ten past when they have met my sis and she starts bossing them:cool:

    I'm going in my car, nice straight run down the motorway, which will be the same for you. I'm going to be parking at a friends house, just a quick tram ride away from the cafe. If you want to come then let me know and you could park there as well and go on the tram with us.

    An alternative is me and AH are meeting up in York on Friday for lunch at Pizza express, so you could meet up with us there if your free, or you could do both;) I will send you a message on FB as I want advice on which of your stores are the best for using coupons etc. Or maybe we could go together when we have had lunch in York;)

    Yes you have read it correctly. You need a total of 8 items, but I always try and buy 10. Remember the trigger item is not seen so cannot count as one of your 8 items. There is a lot of smart price stuff which is cheap. Batter mix is 7p and sweets which are also 10p or so. good luck with it, if you have any problems or don't get any then doc has more than enough and she is very willing to share;)

    Nice to see you posting again, hope your ok?

    Quick one all

    Just checked apgs and my one came back good wih 1 vinnie trellis and 2 gold finger btw there dont feel like may fingers in there not a vey heavy tin, what twonks pay £7 for them. Also got loads of the little sweets for fillers and not a single other item compared!!! But who cares the fillers are going into shoeboxes to be sent abroad

    Also mate got her apg back earlier she sent me her code to put in (got to love em) she got 1 vinnie 2 mt and worked but don't get sp custard powder as showed 7p sada 15p sains but little individual milkybars good as sada 20p sains 15p. Now to print her moc and catch her at school.

    Good afternoon all CM

    I'd like to know what twonks pay £7 for any of the biscuits/chocs :cool: Love the new word, guess it's an area one;) I think it may be similiar to my area one which is "what divvy would pay £7 for them" :D Not sure if I should thank you or not for telling us about the milky bars. I love them, so will be scoffing them along with the small white mouse.

    Talking of white mice, hope you don't forget to bring all mine to the meet AH.

    The Andrex and the petrol list may be good for anyone with KC mocs still. STILL not had mine been 5 weeks now think I am going to give up.

    Also is it just me or are all those pics in the wrong place in that list the dairy looks like a puppy and he coffee looks like washing powder lol

    Give them a ring and ask them where they are. I didn't get any as I was enjoying the sun when the offer was around. If you buy the andrex make sure you get your 8 items cos you SHOULD get a price promise back as it is £3 in Asda. I have just looked at the price promise and it looks like it is now giving immediate results. Not positive as not been in the swear store for ages, but for a £50 (less cost of items) saving on petrol I'll venture into one.

    Jeff & I were talking about applying credit card via cashback & you get cashback bonus X amount of money for applying new card. No deal we just go for cashback:cool:
    jeferey wrote: »
    It was this one (Preferred Rewards Gold) but cashback was £35.35 when I did it. First year is free then I definitely need to cancel as it's £125 a year. Also includes 2 complimentary Airport Lounge passes - will be nice for next year's hols!

    Talking of cashback, I've signed up for this http://www.topcashback.co.uk/gillette-football-club/ Possibility of coupons and you get £1.62 cashback. Mine tracked the next day.
