Just argued with 3 SAs in sada. I spent over £40 and tried to use a £5 coupon with 2 APGs for £19.40 and £15.34. They said I wasn't allowed to use all 3. I insisted there is nothing in the T&C to say that but in the end I paid £20 and didn't use my £19.40 voucher just read the T&C incase they have changed something recently but it even says that you can use a£5 in conjunction with APGs (plural). Stupid jobsworths :mad:

This seems worth a quick phone call to HQ - assuming the vouchers are the correct value as I thought the £15+ ones may have to wait a week to be checked. If they are, the T&Cs (and FAQs) clearly allow you to use any number of APGs (the only restriction is the one £5 off per £40 shop).

One of my Ts is doing the 75% reductions much earlier than usual before 5pm. I just happened to stumble on them so have gone back around the same time. Today the party food was 85% off. Gave me a very good return for 4 packs.

I checked the date on the biscuits before I bought them and they are all very long dates, best one is next August so just right to take camping.

Had a very hectic time Claire was so tired still have rather dark circles around my eyes :eek:. It was all a bit much for my mum I was very worried yesterday but she seems to have picked up a bit again today. Glad to hear you are feeling much better. :T

I have been sorry to read quite a few people's stories about their loved ones with bad experiences in hospital and anniversaries of passing. Big hugs to them. :A:A:A

I have those dark circles too:eek: Oh you have so much to do, looking after your mum as well as everything else!

You need to take your tiny shoes off and put your feet up! easier said than done, I know. Hopefully you will get a chance to slow down a little in the new year x

:( As if 2012 has not been bad enough, I wont chronicle it all now but some of you know it has, I have just heard that a friend that I've known forever has passed away from Ovarian Cancer.

What makes it even harder is that we dont live that close anymore but I was the first person she told & I went to her first chemo with her & looked after her afterwards I encoraged her to tell her friends & neighbours down there & if they offered help she should accept it but as time went on she didnt want me to go down & didnt even want to talk to me on the phone, & she also didnt want any of our mutual friends to know she was ill so I've had to avoid everyone

So upset tonight

Hope you are ok QPR, you sound like you are a great friend xxxx

Don't worry Claire, shoes are off and feet up at the moment.

This is the time I take to wind down with the Elite, read a post earlier about how the thread is a lifeline to some. Must admit it is a wonderful retreat to come to at the end of the day.
