Dear Iamso happy.

I feel I am qualified to give you advice coz one of my sister in laws is a doctor.

Anyway, what you describe is a severe case of people pleasing.

When we do things just because it makes us happy to do things.. we never look at others who are not doing those things.

However,

When we do things, just to get prize/praise/admiration/thanks from others, and that prize/praise/admiration/thanks is not forthcoming, we get bitter and angry and focus on that instead of the happiness we gained from doing the good deed in the first place.

Moral?

Only do something that makes you happy inside. Don't do stuff that makes you look good in the eyes of others. Because people see right through it.

Thank you so much for imparting your wisdom and being so helpful - not.

What a distressing time I have just had in my local Asda. I had bit grief a month ago with some c/s lady accusing me of switching labels to gain a £2 giftcard. I reported her to h/o and giftcards came ok from then, I was actually overcharged 4 weeks on the run!

Today i went in with my 70 year old mother, just about to pay when this trout came to till told lad keep reciepts. I advised he its against law to do that as they were my reciepts. She tried tell me that it has always been there policy to keep them and she been told to do so. I asked who told her and she couldnt answer?

Anyhow she ran off with them so i started shouting after her to give them back as they were mine n she no rights. She came back i asked for manager. She came and was so rude. Basically she said they had me on camera picking up reciepts n she wanted me follow her whilst she calls the police. I was ok with this, the more the merrier i say. Anyhow, on the way to the office and in front of all the store and staff she kept asking me if the reciepts i was using were in fact the ones i picked up? of course i informed her they were my reciepts and she had no right keep them. Then she told me i was commiting fraud and rather than call the police (shame really i was looking forward to that part) she ban me and my 70 year old mother from the store.

I have fired off a email too Mr Clarkes Cheif Exec who I have been in contact with before.

Not as if I did but cant see anything wrong with picking up reciepts myself, in fact doing Asda a favour stop littering the nation. I quoted the mse article of the wombler who gives money to charity from reciepts he picks up, in fact i myself give money too charity (disclaimer: i'm not saying i pick up reciepts and give money to charity). Asda even applaud such behaviour and savvyness of the public according to the article.

sorry if its a bit rushed but im so angry at such treatment. I have in fact been in touch with local and national newspapers who want a contact at asda so they can run a story on this. I see them in court too. Experienced I Am........

your thoughts?

Incidentally which store was this, so that we can avoid the store? I couldn't bare for this to happen to any more of us.

Oh dear. Just had my first forkful of my first WW meal. Its the Chipolte one with rice.. and it doesn't taste good. Its not got enough salt in. If I had salt, it would be alright I reckon.

Have checked all the cupboards round here, and there is no salt anywhere. Have found a sachet of dried milk. Will give that a go.

Hi - I'm just having the same for my lunch as well and I think it's very good - but I don't cook with salt at all as my late DH had high blood pressure so we cut salt out completely. I thought it was very tasty and a decent amount as well. Liked the chick peas as well as the kidney beans and it was just the right spiciness for me ie. not too hot! I will definitely be getting a "few" more later on! And no, I don't work for WW, just very grateful for the coupons!

Actually, I ditched the dried milk. Guess what I found instead? A bottle of virgin olive oil. I mixed that in with the rice and it wasn't that bad. I'm going to get another one of these meals and then i'm going to bring my own salt into work tomorrow. Will let you know how it tastes tomorrow.

Goldfish for dessert? I can't think of anything less appetizing. What a bizarre question? Are you a comedian or something?

absolutely not but as you were trying to get rid of it earlier thought mabe you'd just eat it.

I have to say that I think it is me and not the WW meal. I think i've trained my taste buds to enjoy salt too much. I might try switching to lemon juice. But have you seen the price of lemons? ONE lemon is 30 pence in Asda.

Will try another one tomorrow with my own salt (brought from home) and try it again.. after all, with it being free and an asda on the way home, and the coupons being in my bag ............. it would be rude not to.
