    Ok.. I wanted to double check on this and I have done using the following number. 0845 300 0627. I challage ANYONE that does not agree with this to first contact the number and ask them the same question.

    I bought £40 worth of goods with £3 cash and £37 voucher. If I then managed to buy £8000 worth of goods with cash and vouchers (cash being £1000 and vouchers being £7000) and then was to sell some of the products for £1000 to make up my outlay would I need to provide anything for the tax office.

    Man on phone. Checks with someone else.

    There is no tax liability, We would not need to know about this.


    Agreed. BUT if you sell any more than your £1000 of goods, then you could find that would be taxable, as this is then income from your origional investment.

    If you use the goods yourself/give them away then fine.

    Anyone know where I can get some " get up and go" or "incentive"?
    I'll happily pay full price, it's just that the mother is coming in 2 days and today is the last day I have to clean and my "get up and go" has gone and all my incentive has run out, I also think I've been struck down with "lazyitus" as well!!!!
    It's the thought that counts.......I think a lot!

    That looks Ok to me. I tend to have 10 or 11 items just to be safe as sometimes things don't show up as eligible items. Just check before each shop that your chosen cereals/cleaning items, whatever, are still comapring on msm. If one item shows oos at A or W, it will fluff up the whole shop. Good luck :)

    edit - one thing I would add is that we know A is trying to fix this glitch. Don't think it is an easy one for them and hopefully will take a while, but at some point these shops will suddenly come back as comparing normally, so be prepared for that when it happens.

    Having sorted out my 2 teenage granddaughters with some decent hair care stuff, I was thinking about getting my grandson some facial care items - he's at the teenage zits stage . I'm sure that earlier on I saw a couple of mentions of Clearasil but it was a while ago and it may have been an expired deal - I've had a poke about but can't locate any relevant posts now.

    If some kind soul could suggest what I need I would be very grateful (and so would my grandson!) - I have at the back of my mind that spot stuff works with T's with cheap t/paste as the trigger but I'm quite likely up a gum tree !

    I am new to this but I can't see the MEGA shampoo on Henlans list, maybe this is it!
    That's what I thought, don't think mega is OK (was against T's previously) moist is fine though.
