I was hoping for freebies but as soap is £13 a bar I think that is unlikely.
I will not give in and look at this! In fact I'm going to immerse myself in work now and log off otherwise I just know I'll find somthing there I need:eek:Beware!!!! Glitching is addictive:rotfl:0 -

RE: teenage sons.
Here's a thought, why don't you just leave them to it?! I know it's a bit out there but if there's wet towels on the floor so what, he'll soon start picking them up when he tries to dry himself with a cold, damp towel
if his rooms a mess, leave it. Dont wash his clothes unless he's plopped it in the laundry basket, again, he'll soon learn. Harsh I know, but it's how I learnt. No, I'm not a boy but I acted like one at that age and I soon clocked on. Now I'm a clean freak and I'm quite possible even tidier than my mother, I ask her when she's going to clean her kitchen when I pop round her house....she doesn't like that

Can't comment on No1 but No2 & 3 oh yes;)
I admit I gave in with the washing and ironing being put away and just used to do it myself:oand wet towels I can sympathise with and cups and plates!.My DS's favourite is socks, in fact only this morning I found another pair behind the sofa in the front room! I think its definately a boy thing, my DS hasnt got any better at 18;)I'm dreading seeing his uni room:eek:
Socks? Did you mention socks behind the sofa - I was beginning to think that's where they should be! it is just the same here. In fact I was going to add socks as Grip 4 - no socks, ever, taken to wearing his sisters!!!LOL What an image:rotfl:0 -

so you could buy 2 chromes (giving 7.05 back)
A bavaria shandy with coupon (giving £1 Back)
A reloaded with coupon (85p back)
Five beans(filler with coupon)
etc
on mys it is showing for T as out of stock and it has the little star but if we can find it, it will compare????
I wasnt bothered about the chrome but if it gives a TPP then it makes it much more interesting.
Also on the list for T

Hobnob flapjacks free pack - small difference with
Lenor orange blossom - n/a with A, car MOC
Ariel stain trigger - £2, matched price, car MOC“Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove. Every day will allow you, --will invite you to add something to the pleasure of others, --or to diminish something of their pains.”0 -
