Am I in the minority with Quidco? I've had very few issues.
I've had my first items rejected today - was 3 loaves of whoopsied bread, showing up as items inelegible, I'm not sure whether or not I should chase them up as I didn't see it say anywhere that I had to pay full price for them
I did have a load of items stuck for a while and then a run of 8 approved all at the same time last week.
This is my first offer out of over 15 to be rejected.

You are not alone. I've had 99% success with quidco. The only thing I've had ineligible was a whoopsied florette salad

Evening guys. Last night's snow stayed most of the morning but then cleared in the bright sunshine, though we have had the odd flurry throughout the day

The nurse rang this morning and said that Mam had been comfortable during the night, there had been no more sickness and her motions are more solid (sorry if tmi). They are waiting for results back tomorrow but in the meanwhile she in on infection control, with her door kept shut at all times, and anyone entering it must wear gloves/aprons. She had eaten a bit of her lunch when my brother went down earlier but she hardly ate anything tonight for me and my sister

They had brought her 2 x quarter sandwiches, one tuna and one with a thick slice of ham, but she wouldn't be able to bite the ham one or chew it as it was too solid, remembering she is supposed to be on soft foods. They normally bring her soup, 2 or 3 sandwich quarters, plus a light whipped dessert, but when my sister went up for soup for her, she came back with spaghetti hoops as they had no soup tonight, or pudding. We tried Mam with a tiny bit of the tuna sandwich but she struggled with it, twisting her face and shouting 'ouch' as she swallowed it, and then putting her tongue out saying 'sore', and then she would not have anymore, though she did have 3 small spoonfulls of spaghetti hoops. The nurse said they had checked her for thrush in her mouth/throat and for mouth ulcers, but they say there is no sign, but she is definitely suffering and that is why she is not eating, we feel

She got tired and fell asleep when her nebuliser was on her, and was settled when we left to come home. We will just have to see how she is tomorrow

Hope the snow is not too bad where you all are

I hope that tinyshoes got her Mum settled back home and all ok, and that rose is feeling a bit better

it's in the Clicksnap Ts and Cs that reduced items don't qualify:

"Items which are reduced to clear, or reduced in price due to their short shelf life are not eligible for cashback"

Hi sured, have you had any problems with the app knowing where you are and displaying pins? Not sure whether it's my phone/app but it often can't get an internet connection to update location or offers even though I can connect to the internet without problems using google, mse etc. It often says that the internet connection has timed out and will only display cached info.

Hi Artha, yes mine has been like that a couple of times, have you tried turning your phone off, that has seemed to help.

I'm going to regret this, and I must apologise in advance but whenever you suddenly pop up I always think of: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RtWBlDC2-ss

Evening all,

Long afternoon waiting in clinic as was running late. Bloods showed I am still anaemic, even more than the last time I had a blood test. No wonder I've been feeling carp Bit worried as borderline for needing transfusion already and back to chemo on Wednesday which will drop levels further again and make me feel even worse

Also been a bit worried as night sweats have come back (these were one of the only symptoms I had in the start) but Dr thinks this is not likely to be due to the lymphoma growing again :T but the menopause :eek: Knew my treatment is intensive and this was likely to happen but weirdly it's still come as a bit of a shock.

Had a fairly good whoopsie run this evening. Got whole cooked chicken at 75% off, chocolate bread for 15p and tiger rolls for 18p. There were also lots of price cuts in the soft drinks aisle. Got some Fentimans cherry cola, elderflower cordial and Shloer for when I fancy a posh drink when OH is boozing
