    That worked. Thanks! It seems they think that ROI is local to me. Very strange. They got some right, though.

    Is anyone else appalled at the price of branded drugs? I spent more than the allowance today on 12 branded tablets that are generally on sale at less than a tenth of the cost for the own brand version :eek:

    Not really - someone has to pay for the advertising. I always take the generic or BP route - always a money-saver!
  • ITS Incognito are looking for experienced shoppers in the Manchester area, I've worked for them for several years and find them good. They are a smaller company but deal with you directly, no faster finger first stuff, or strange emails. PM me if you want more background on them.

    You should never spend more than the allowance on these, if they are that expensive I'd be ringing RA.

    Good point. Once yesterday £1.00 over the allowance and today's was 50p over. I may give them a call in the morning. I had no idea they were so expensive. I buy supermarket own brand for less than 50p :rotfl:

    I think I just picked up a job that is the direct result of a job I did last week - ie, A didn't get a great report, let's see if neighbour B does better, so we can dump A. And, as a bonus, I get a handy housewarming present for Mum.

    How's things for everyone - busy? It's getting to the time of year where I try and ease up as the shops get busy (and so does my errand running business)
