    What is the minimum top up for o2 please? May be worth getting a PAYG sim just for these offers?

    Anon

    I think it is £10

    Yes e-vouchers same as delivery :)




    If it shows as being available for delivery i.e. you are allowed to add it to your basket then yes :D If when they deliver they had no stock then apg still goes on what was ordered.

    Thank you - will definitely try next time there is a similar item to sally that they never seemed to restock

    Should be able to get the SIM free. The minimum top up is £10. But having topped up once you wouldn't need to top up again. I think you need to make a call every 6 months to keep the SIM active.

    I didn't know that, will have to phone home occasionally :beer:

    Xmas Saver!
    One for all the Bootser and the Pedants on the thread: (just posted it on the Boots Blog thread too)

    Love the maths on the blog, Completely forgetting that all the gifts were in the 3 for 2 sale before chrimbo, so would have had 1/3 knocked off the price before any sale. Thats a 33% discount, so a £10 item costs £6.66. In the 75% off sale it costs £2.50, a saving of £4.16, in reality a 62.5% saving.

    If you bought 3 £10 gifts before xmas, they would have cost £20, in the 75% off sale £7.50. So, not bad, but not as good as you think.

    Does it work on ordinary phones by text then or is it only smartphones??

    Not sure my spare is an old smart phone and I just browse the offers and tap on the one I want - I haven't received any texts - hopefully someone more knowledgeable will know

    It works on ordinary phones, you get the offers by text, but you get far, far more offers on a smartphone.

    I knew someone would know :beer:

    Bin bag update

    you reading Bea

    they are back in asda 20 for a £1
    where the sale gear is straight in front of door (ff area) on the bottom shelf. Just bought 20 packs :j
    How sad :o

    Anyway they are 80l moneysavers with tie tops evidently

    Also noticed thay had some sort of terrys dark chocolate boxes down to £1.75 from £7 supposedly the milk variety was these where opposite the fresh pizza area just around the corner.

    I am reading - guess what I asked hubs to get on the way home from work - alas he didn't see these so paid more that that for less bags in MrA - you will have to let us know what the quality is like?

    Thanks for remembering :beer:

    These are the ones I bought last time they where on offer and just ran out this week.

    They are spot on Bea have never ripped for me yet :D
    Would definately recommend them 20 for a £1 thats not to say if you pay £3 you are not going to get better but these are by far the best ones I have had for the price.

    Sales pitch over :o

    Are these bin bags any good David?

    I normally get mine from Lidl, but if these are strong ones, I'll get some.

    Edit: just seen above post.

    All very quiet here today. Went to Boots- first in queue and even got one of those trolley basket things - I spent £55 santuary, honey sets, starbucks storage jar, slippers loads a bits and oh crackers and paper for next year. Feel as if I got good value and will be glad of it as we go thru the year with birhdays and so on. Hope you are all ok.
