    Same here. But no hemp balms. Just 2 reed infusers for £4.99.
    So looks like they are still charging me for the non existent hemp balms :eek:

    Me 2, body butter price 0 but package cost 4.99. Suppose I cant grumble, only a few months ago I would have paid full price.... so naive back then :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Ooh, forgot to say, I've got 99p pending on TCB for the BS so maybe that's a good sign...?
    Think it'd only work as enough cashback for one of the orders though :think:

  • Which one of you luvlies to do I need to thank for the post re the Special Delivery Mail Bags? I've searched, but can't find the OP - I'm sure I saw the post on here. Anyway, I popped into our local post office with a parcel to send off. Asked the lady who was serving me if I could have some Special Delivery postal bags, she said, "no problem, what are they for?" I replied, "eBaying". She said, "no, I mean what size do you want?" :rotfl:. Anyway she gave me a handful of the very large ones (enough to fit a jacket in). If you turn them inside out so the Special Delivery is inside, job's a good un ;)

    I placed an order with viking for stationery for work so will claim back vat but I didn't try the 2nd class stamps no vat on them anyway, worth a try if your into ebay or send a lot of post:D

    Something to do with stroking meat was it :eek: oh yes thats right ;)
    I was asleep last night till 11:45 when the dogs went absolutely crazy downstairs.
    Looked out of the window just in time to see what may have been a figure turning the corner at high speed :(
    Went and had a mooch about and everything fine so will be adding another level of security to garage once I have cought up not sure what as yet though.

    Any burglars on here with any tips as to what puts you off apart from two mad dogs :rotfl:Blesss them :T

    On your second point I didn't realise that DM was such a fast mover:rotfl: Alarms? Our garage is integral, has no windows and the door is alarmed as part of the main house system.

    I do think dogs are one of the best alarm/early warning systems around and is probably a reason that we might look at getting a dog again.

    My woofa slept through when our garage was burgled so make sure you get one that works :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I haven't had any cancellations on my 4 BS orders, but no dispatched emails either? Will be rather upset when I do because it took me hour to work out how to do it.

    Debenhams order has to be returned, Boots didn't fit and bag was damaged.

    Also having no luck with snapping for TCB, after I scan receipt and try to upload it get a message saying the file is too big - have no idea how to change it to another format, any technies advise would be great, thanks.

    Just feeling really rubbish and on the verge of taking to my bed and crying - in pain, depressed and getting over flu and chest infection, even though I had a flu jab:(

    Got a letter from GP asking me to go for routine blood tests. Got asked if I was on any blood thinners as my blood was very thin, also got asked the same question last time I had regular botox injections in my leg, as I spurted blood and fainted. Suppose I should mention it to GP, but seems like too much effort to get an appointment at the moment.

    This thread usually helps to cheer me up :T and get me through the day, but have been trying not to shop so much because house is full, only problem is there doesn't seem to be anything else in my life and it's the only time I go out.

    Think I might just test the Bombay Potatoes,in the name of research, usually make my own with the Shwartz mix, tinned tomatoes and onion which are lovely, so will let you know what i think.

    Just got my first cancellation from BS as we speak. Sorry Offer didn't work in condition with our terms etc and code for 40% off next order :mad: Not Likely.
  • must stop obsessively checking my Bs order status... its not doing any good. 2 still say awaiting dispatch. Long list of cancelled. Have to say, i did about 6 orders and got the watermelon man, so didnt even know they had worked until someone on here said to check my emails. 3 different cards used and alternate things to see what combination would work, so I have no idea which card will be charged for the order that is coming.

    Oh and the 40% off code in the BS apology email is only valid until 4pm Friday and excludes the outlet section!
