  • That would be a no. My little boy decided to hide my house keys and i had to get my mum round to help me look. It took 45 minutes of looking in drawers, cupboards, the garden, the washing machine, behind the sofa, in his toy box - your getting the picture yeah. We eventually found them stuffed behind the radiator in the hallway. :mad::mad:I was going nuts and about ready to blow by then. But at least i have them. Till the next time i'm sure :).


    That is why we have a full set of duplicate keys in the kitchen drawer! Been through that once too often!

    I just wanted to say sorry I haven't posted and I wasn't here just for the apg glitch, but I really am no company right now.

    I do hope everyone else is ok, hugs (()) to those that need them.

    But my head is in the shed, the hospital have rang today to say that Dad now can't have his bladder operation as the biopsy they took from his bowel a couple of days ago shows that his bowel is not of a good enough standard, he had alot removed due to his bowel cancer.

    So they are going to do radiotherapy but all along they said the bladder had to come out, the chemo never worked, twice he's been for pre-op assessments.

    So thats the reason I am not joining in, not because I was just here for the apg glitch, I will be back when my head is a bit straighter.

    Sorry if I have missed anything/anyone/event etc that is important, I have not read back.

    Also poor April is still missing. Its very sad.

    Take Care everyone
    Budgie xxx

    :( Thinking of you and your Dad Budgie. You will have more important thinks to do than post on here I know but please keep popping in and letting us know how you both are xx.

    Did a tesco loaded shop today with andrex wipes and beans. Boy did I choose the wrong cashier. Went against my better judgement and went for the middle aged lady. Loaded coupons wouldn't scan - then they did but they were calling for a price to be entered. She calls the sv over he comes looks at them and says can't take these. I say but but my sister use them in Knockgn this morning - well ok then just scan them and enter the price. Then there was a hoo haa with the wipes coupon "customer had not bought item required" - not possible here they are and it is your coupon. Turns out she had not scanned the wipes. Beanz coupon surprisingly were stress free and scanned for her. All went thru in the end and receipt given. AAArrrrgggh she only scanned two of my items (kidney beans and chopped toms) as one item so I have max nine items on receipt - I am relying on the two loaded flavours to be two different items. I tell you if I get a pp after this I will eat my hat.

    She thought she was finished with me but oh no I was the next shop too you see - two Allessi sets (coupons free from ebay) balance paid with an APG (yes we are talking NI here). The woman nearly had a kitten when I presented this. SV over again and approved it. I needed a sit down after this.


    All the time behind me a woman in the queue behind looked as if she had just smelled a bad smell - this was all going on far too long not just for her but for me as well.:)


    think I will run out to sada to look for those diswasher tabs.....

    Did you get points added for bag re-use?

    If you did that counts as 1 more item ;)

    I learnt my lesson the hard way too.
    All my keys now have a home, hooked up on the coat rail. :D

    Had a great day. Doubled my money on E-Bay.
    Then went to Mr T at woopsie time and got loads of meat for 75% off. Young assistant told us all to choose what we wanted and hand it to her and she reduced it.

    Did someone mention Dishwasher tabs. I ran out 2 days ago from all my DTD stash. Do tell
