are the instant PP`s like the sainsbobs brand match vouchers?
is this a new thing being done by Tesco?

Yes started in NI just today- you get this slip at the checkout and it can be used either in store or online- there is a code on it as well as a barcode. It means that wombling is for points only really- doubt that NI folk will throw away their pp's!!!

Sunglasses anyone?

Afternoon All.....

Long long time since I've been here, been lurking from just before the start of the latest S. H. I. P thread.... Thanks COT. Over the last few days I've seen some of you write that you haven't been here in ages.... and it's been about a week.... Me, well it's been about 6 months!!!! :eek:

There has been so much happen in the time I have been away, and I know i've missed lots of glitches, but I have managed to squeeze one or 2 in in the last couple of weeks.... thanks to the OP's, I have cheeses for myself and family, 3 boxes of choccies from MrA the odd S&G, my store only had 3 then ran out :eek: and enough softener and stain remover to last for a little while anyway.

I know lots has happened to many of you, both good and bad, i'd like to welcome to the world any new 'baby' MSE'ers. But i'd really like to say Sorry to 3Dogs for your sad loss this summer. I hope the dogs have started behaving better and the mouse problem is reducing.... Keep strong, you are doing a fine job XXX You have been so positive that your posts give me strength.

Last year ended and this one began with a fella that had come back into my life after 14 years, making all sorts of promises, and making me think I had finally in my 40's found happiness..... that was short lived, and he let me down and hurt me emotionally big time..... 6 months on and i'm still far from over it..... I know I need to move on, and keep thinking that maybe I should forget the usual perfume and use some extra Le' Nour before a mate drags me off to a local POF singles night disco..... :cool:

I think the last time I was here I had made comments on my Mum and the big dreaded C..... it only took the hospital just over a year of tests and various other 'wrong' treatments to finally diagnose. :cool: Anyway, to cut a very long story, she started treatment as an outpatient, got extremely poorly and immobile, so became an inpatient. She had been in for a week, was left overnight without cot sides up, fell out of bed and fractured her hip. Watching her over the next week it was like, well if you can get back from this mum, you can come back from anything!!!!!

Well she is home now, have no idea how she pulled herself through, but she did. :T I do my best as her career, but it's bloomin hard, coz she's always been so independent. Now she has to use 2 sticks or a frame at home, and a wheelchair when out. I managed to get a very MSE purchase of a Stenna stair lift from Ebay for £20 which we managed to fit ourselves, and with family contacts got it safety tested. The only problem with doing this was before the first Social Worker made a home visit to assess mums needs the SW read notes on the computer system which stated – ‘Family have arranged installation of a stair lift’, which meant SW came round with an initial thought of, ‘Well this family must be loaded’. She was put right on that fact!!!!

I don;t have too much to add, but I did want to try to find something that may be useful, so for those of you that have baby MSEer's, I don't know if it's been seen, and I don't have any results of these comparing, but I assume they will.

I thought the little tins look promising for a A's v T's shop.

Things are slowly getting easier so I hope to have more time to post.

Lovely to see you posting again Elsie :j :j You have certainly been missed and thank you for thinking of me too :A The dogs are settling in a bit better now, but still a few accidents but no more mice, score still stands at 3Dogs 5 v Mice 0 :rotfl: :rotfl: Sorry to here that things have been so hard for you. Fantastic that your Mum recovered after what she has been through. Mr 3Dogs fell out of bed onto the hard floor overnight too when he was in the palliative care unit. They hadn't put side rails up as they hadn't been told by the hospital that he kept trying to get out of bed. No damage done for him other than a few bruises and, of course, distress

Stick with us this time hun, as together we are better than on our own :j :j

Good evening everybody, I hope you are well. Just had a lovely whoopsie shop. had to go to five shops but what a surprise got Mr S at the right time they took %90 off I was so happy has I have never seen them do this before it's normally %75. I got prawns for 40p. I nearly had happy palpitations I really need to get another hobby.

Evening peeps,
just a reminder about something close to my heart....flying.

The law has finally been rubber stamped by brussels so if your flight is three hours late and the airlines fault (not weather) you are automatically entitled to 250 euros each for european flights .
Easyjet and BA appealled but were unsuccessful.
The best thing is you can now claim back as far as 2005 so get claiming.
There is a bit on martins page all about it.
Out of my last six flights four were delayed but only one cost me money so that is the one I have claimed for.
I put my claim in during august but the airline waited to see the result of the appeal but now has to pay up.
This should be very good for us as if they will try harder to prevent delays in future, yay.

Over night all the leaves fell off :eek:

Alternatively, check out www.ink.co.uk that's where I get my ink and there's always freebies to be had there! (also 10 year guarantee and I've never had a problem with any of their cartridges.)

I have used this site for years -they are great- get my compatibales for £1 each and my printer/scanner is brilliant (was only £50 from argos about 8 years ago) still going strong as it has self cleaning heads which means cheap inks dont clog it up!

For those that were asking yesterday about the Tesco Clubcard campaign on Bzz, I've just had an email to say the link will be sent early next week. Sounds like they had a few teething problems with it.

Something I've never bought before is Branston Pickle but FIL asked me to get some. All SMs have it at £1.85 for the big jars except T's which have it at 2 for £2

HTHs someone (I have no idea if it's good value)
