    Evening all

    Been to pick up OHs ebay stuff and saved £10 postage ;)

    Took my youngest with me and went to Ts on the way home. He was hungry so I said he could have something from the chippy as a treat for being good in Ts ( he's not usually:cool:)

    In the chippy he was looking at the menu and asked me what a battered sausage was. I told him it was a normal sausage but with batter on...like a fish. So he decided on that and spent the journey home telling me how delicious it was.

    When he got in he couldn't wait to tell everyone else not only that he'd had tea from a chippy but that he'd had a 'sausage covered in fish skin' :rotfl::rotfl:

    Very sweet. It's the simple pleasures of days like these that stay with you forever Also when they Are large hairy swearing teens/ young adults it helps you remember how lovely they once were :D

    OK was going to lurk as the last thing I wanted was to be thought of as abusive /bullying.
    Am I going to apologise.
    No more than I already have
    A few pms later from people that know/get me and I am back a lot quieter obviously as everything that I say will have to be run through my solicitor.
    Thanks Flabby, TM and artha :T:T:T
    Please don't become a lurker David.......the (allegidly) bad tempered ginger scot (in denial) would miss you! :rotfl:

    Morning all - very crisp morning here but sun out so looks like it will be a lovely day:j

    Logie - hope you had a good night out.

    Nikkilala - have a good trip to see DS

    Snap-ant love your wig pics - re the business idea sounds great - go for it. I am sure there are peeps on here who could offer advice if/when you need it.

    Hugs to everyone who needs them ....off for a warming cuppa and the quiz - trying to keep up with that this month.

    Have a lovely day everyone.

    OK....so I have spent the last hour an a half getting me head around the quidco thing and I have uploaded two receipts(scan and then upload).I find it quite time consuming but maybe it will be quicker the more I do. Can I ask you peeps a question - say if I have three receipts with a 2ltr coke on each one can I claim three times or can I only claim once? Hope this makes sense. TIA Labelle

    Oo I've just thought one of the recs I checked yesterday had a bottle of coke on it. Hopefully it's one of the sada ones that gave me a small APG.
    But now I am thinking I should take the old recs out of the waste paper boxes before I take them for recycling just incase :D

    Yes I am also thinking it could be another time consuming thing - but so is ebaying, couponing, wombleing and just about all of our activities we do to save and make a bit of money. That's what makes it so much fun :T

    Morning all :wave:

    Just managed to catch up with a :coffee: before I make a start on the garden. I've been wanting to do it for weeks but each time I've thought about it it's snowed!

    David, please don't lurk & the same goes for candy. The written word can be misread so easily & s.o.h may not be the same or easily seen. X

    Just a thought for the scanners for tcb & quidco. Have you tried folding the receipts, putting multiples into the scanner & then opening the scanned document to snip the individual receipts? May take less time x

    Have a great day all x
    :D Coupons = the only money we can legally print for ourselves:D

    :j A coupon for a free item that is price glitched in Mr T's to be cheaper than Sada for an apg = HEAVEN :j

    :money: total = £47.48 cc = 413 selling stuff = £23.00 Floor pennies = £5.79

Waits in anticipation .....:cool:
