  • The £5 off £40 for sada work at Tosco NI. I have loads of them.

    There are probably NI regulars who live near a Tosco and haven't been able to womble them at Sads. Isn't it a shame cos I have too many.......;)

    Lucky you, DS hasn't had much chance lately. All he finds are small totals or none at all. Must try up at westie at some point. Going to Kennedy centre tonight to see if sainsbobs have anything of interest so may have a look :cool:

    I was buying 6 when they where priced at £6 in asda they are now £11.28 and showing as £4 in tesco.
    Dont think they are still comparing though are they or did I read it wrong when skimming.
    If they are comparing still, 2 will give you a max apg along with fillers.
    But check back thought someone said they had stopped comparing

    So annoyed with myself for being sensible with the wine and just getting a few for Christmas :)

    Has anyone actually tried buying it at the new price in the hope of getting an APG ?

    how you print three ??

    Yes I ended up with 3 as well - just thought it was cos I've got a sulky printer that needs persuading to work - all different codes

    I suppose it makes up for the times I only get one printed :D

    Afternoon all.
    Been out on a 2 hour walk with DS and tigercub then had a nice day playing and chilling out. I've got 15 mins to catch up :D

    I went to see my neighbour last night for a catch up and some wine :beer:... I've recommended this site so if you are lurking, hello Lou :D:wave:

    Got bro in law arriving in a few hours. Him, wife and their 2 kids are visiting us for the weekend so I shan't be on here too much. Back later when I've caught up x

    Best way to see the barcode is to pinch the wrapper where the 'lt' is. Thanks to HC

    Just heading out to Mr T to get more Alessi cutlery and to use a £5.00 off £40.00 womble I found in the car park of another store on Monday. Printed some more Reloaded vouchers and some Beanz to make up the price and pay next to nothing.
    Need to shop as having a really bad day and been in tears most of it.
    I care for my Mum basically full time and my brothers( who do nothing ) and sisters ( who do what suits them) have said that Mum needs another signatory on her building society ( I sign at the mo and she does when she can get to town) so that it is 2 to sign all the time. Dad left a bit of money in B/S and a smallish ISA (about £3000.00). The ISA money went into the budget account and as my brother and sister ( who are Dads executors) did not sort out my Mum's Italian pension ( as Dad was Italian) most of the money has gone on paying her bills. Now my sister is making a fuss about the money and I said ok I will get together the statements so you can all see where it has gone. However when I was on hols im September my brother took all the statements home. So I called him ( I dont usually talk to him as he took most of my parents money already for 3 failed business's and left them with a 50 year interest only £60.000.00 mortgage) and asked for the statements back so I could order any missing ones.
    He talked over me as he usually does and said it was not a witchhunt and they would all draw a line in the sand. He always talk like that and then he said that her finances had been mismanaged and they all neeeded to deal with it. So I tried to talk to my other brother \ he also shouted me down, so I came home and wrote them all an email listing all the ways I have saved my parents money in the last 5 years. I.E Council tax benefit, pension credit, atttendance allowance, £100.00 cashback , cheaper insurances and free shopping.
    I then told them that if they think they can do a better job then ok but I won't be looking after her anymore.
    Very sad as I have put my parents 1st for at least 5 years when my own life is falling apart.
    So sorry to ramble off to fleece Mr T now.


    So sorry this has happened:(
    Well it is up to them now to think about where to go from here.
    You have clearly done a great job over the years with little help.
    I do hope they come to their senses and be reasonable.
    Thinking of you:)
    Smile :) and hopefully the world will smile back

    I thought I was being sensible also by stocking up, not for the next ten years but a good few bottles to last DW whenever she feels like a bottle of fizzy stuff .

    Rose money and the elderly cause major problems in families.
    You are not alone with this one- have been here before myself. The family that cause the most fuss about money are the ones who care so little about the elderly relative. All they want is greed and money. Hope it all goes away for you.
