    Tenth Anniversary Combo Breaker Xmas Saver!

    Have you thought about buying a fan for your xbox, I believe it just plugs into the back!

    If it was mine I would do that rather than fork out for a new one but the department dealing with these within the organisation I volunteer in won't let you alter a device in any way incase it hurts any of our clients and the family decides to sue.
    Anyway we haven't bought anything new in 2 years so there is a big pot of cash that needs used before our next audit and it gets taken off us.
    SPC #329 £471/£500 banked
    SPC 2014 £1100:D

    It worked for me but I suppose you have to be careful that it won't change price by the time your delivery arrives. You could always hand it back to the driver if the price changes though.

    Thanks! Do you happen to know when sains change their offers? I'm ordering tonight for my shopping tomorrow, so have to hope they don't change it tomorrow.

    Quite right - I've cut some stuff out of my post now (although if anyone wants the full detail it's still available in your reply to it). Many thanks, I've taken it on board.
    Wouldn't do if we were all the same. There are gems in your posts that make it worth the time taken reading them. Thank you for posting.

    Did a £30 shop in Tesco tonight, mainly because I had a £3 off wys £30 moc, so I thought I would go for it.

    :) Got four pacs of cheese, bogof and using dairy voucher for £4.98

    :( They wouldn't accept my Baxters coupons (first time I've had a problem) and I didn't void them because they would have taken me below £30. I suppose 3 for £2 isn't a bad price, but I normally make my own soup!

    :) Got a Finest meal deal, mainly because I am getting a bit fed up with ww. It would only let me use one Finest coupon but I also had Tesco coupons for 65p and £1 which I think I managed to use against it. One was for any Finest ready meal and I can't for the life of me remember what the other one was for! Till rejected a 50 pts when you buy wine voucher but CS put that on me afterwards. She hardly looked at my receipt (Picasso pointed to the wine entry with receipt folded in half to hide long list of coupons...) Not sure I will buy a meal deal again, though it worked on this occasion because of the other coupons but I was disappointed it only let me use one Finest voucher!! (Greedy Picasso!)

    :T Best bit was the
    Finest Wiltshire Cure Unsmoked Gammon Joint which is now half price though it is not showing for me as that online. I bought a joint which was priced at just over £10 and sure enough, it let me use two Finest vouchers! Was very pleased as all the party food had gone and I couldn't find the un-iced Christmas cake I was looking for. (I think I'll just make one, even if it should have been done weeks ago. I've got a couple of Mary Berry pacs in the cupboard...)

    So this is just to thank everyone for all the help I have been given on this forum and I hope this helps someone.

    Do you hang your teabags out to dry as well? :rotfl: :rotfl:


    Evening everyone - just off to catch up. There is definitely not enough hours in the day, I'm exhausted and still haven't done half of what I was supposed to do today.

    Back to square one, no apg, no comment.

    Sorry, I don't know when they change. I do know that you can do your online APG alot quicker than the 48 hours they tell you to wait. I done one after just 3 hours after delivery.
    Many a mickle makes a muckle.

    Oh yes -- I haven't seen this mentioned yet. Popped into Morries this morning to buy ToysRus gift cards (got 4p off petrol voucher valid until March) and there are signs everywhere saying they take vouchers from other supermarkets, though sadly, and not unexpectedly, when you are buying gift cards! I think there are limits but I am hoping I can use an APG there...

    thankyou for the help, i would have been too nervous to do it otherwise! I hope it turns out well! Do you know of any other reliable glitches on food? I've been so behind lately it's terrible :(
