    I feel a bit bad....just returned the sun lotions to mr shoes. I don't return things very often and I know they can sell them again, but..... :(

    No need to feel bad - I have got over feeling bad returning anything, as keeping it where a glitch hasn't worked or PP/APG etc didn't match when it should, makes me feel even worse :o!

    That said, I only return stuff that I know they can sell again (so not meat etc!) and only if it cost quite a bit (so returned a few FF and MT during the Christmas promo when they didn't work). I also factor in petrol costs as T and A are a few miles from us so if it is only a couple of pounds, it would cost more to go back.

    Keep smiling, it is part of the game in my view :cool: (though I know some on here believe you should just accept any failed glitches as "part of the game," personally I prefer to keep the glitch in my favour as I don't want the stuff at full price ;) ).

    DH is at the gym so thought I'd pop on here to catch up ;)

    Just thought I'd let you know I've just done a combined breakfast shop at Mr T (2 x cereal shops and 2 x meat shops). Thanks to COT for his screen shots and testing the meat shop and to Patty for doing the cereal one earlier in the week. I've taken a couple of pics if it helps as the font size is particularly small on the screen shots. I didn't get the eggs as tea bags keep longer in the cupboard ;) and I don't eat mushrooms so got tomatoes. The first photo is an example of 2 different shops, I've separated them slightly so you can see what you need to buy to make the meat one work and also the cereal one. If you include both mushrooms and tomatoes in one of your meat shops you will need less fillers :)

    This is my whole shop, plus I bought bananas, onions and carrots as fillers.

    This is my receipt with the multisavers coming off

    So without 3 fillers, my shop was £20 (4 x £5 breakfast deals). Re PP, I'm hoping to get £4 back for the cereal and 78p back for the sausages.

    Edit: Thanks to RootedNomad who thought about doing this in the first place :D

    Must be an easier quiz today managed 5th place. Best ever!

    Currently enjoying daughter's I pad and free McDonald's wifi while I wait for her to come from camp America interview.
    Anyone had any Experience of this organisation?

    She' desperate to get on as had a carp last 6 months so I've got everything crossed for her:D

    I did camp America when I was 17 and again the summer after. Did 12 weeks each time and loved it 😄 i was in new york state and had the easiest job - i was lifeguard and teaching kids to swim. The hardest jobs were in the kitchens. Would highly recommend.
