    All of my quidco have been approved, I even got a goodwill from them as I mistakenly clicked the wrong offer. The main issue is the delay. Shopitize and TCB are virtually instantaneous. :)

    I have not had 1 single receipt accepted first time by shopitize. Everyone comes back no offer found/retailer not recognised/ you have manually altered the receipt :huh: I think my pics are perfectly clear enough. I wish they would accept scanned receipts like the others :(

    The only reason I still bother is that they do sort the problems out quickly and without any fuss

    Warning possible tmi lol... That alone will probably have more of you reading it:) Haemorroid... Don't know if its the right spelling. Anyway I discovered a lump " down there " on Sunday so had a google as one does and decided it was either a Haemorroid or an abscess but recommended to visit doctor to make sure.

    I was taking my grandson Riley to the drs yesterday morning so I had a brainwave. I d take a pic of it with my iPad and show him as well as getting Riley sorted. What a palaver that was taking a pic. I didn't t want to show anything else just that part:). Managed in the end. So I go in armed with my iPad to see a locum I'd never seen before and after the initial hello s I say would you mind having a quick look at this please and showed him my pic:eek: well figured it was better than showing him it in real life at that time.

    After presumably getting over the shock he said it was a Haemorroid. Great I thought. I ve never had one before so my question is does anyone have any experience of these and if so what did you use to get rid or are they a permanent fixture once one has one. I'm not sure how I got it but my cycling on a spin bike at the gym for quite a while leaves a lot to be desired. The saddles are so uncomfortable .

    Thanks:)
  • Good Morning :)

    Happy Birthday Kizkiz - have a great day!


    I have serious washday envy as I can't get out to hang out any washing in this lovely windy sunshine because of the few foot of snow everywhere :eek:

    Working and lurking so have a good one in whatever you're all doing today x

    Does say offer valid on any variety, so buy in A against either S or T's for £1.89

    The offer in A's is 2 for £4 but the Head & Shoulders Classic Clean 2 in 1 Anti-Dandruff Shampoo & Conditioner (225ml) which shows on A.com is not showing on msm (250ml shows on T's so the 225ml may not be available)
    Also on A.com but not msm are the mila rose hair accessaries (lots of different ones) and I'm fairly certain the Elsie1969 said these were a trigger last week so may be worth a punt if you are getting the herbal essences for TCB

    I do feel quidco want us to jump through hoops to get the cashback but I'm relatively patient so haven't minded so far.
    Can't use shopitize as don't have a smart phone so no experience there and I do find TCB to be the best one, they're so fast :)

    I wonder if my quidco approval rate is so high because I scan all the receipts into my PC? Are people tending to have problems with the snapped ones on the phone app being accepted?

    :rotfl: sorry. I know from experience these are painful! Pregnancy caused mine.

    I'm surprised the doctor didn't tell you how to treat it. I've found preparation H the best. They do a gel and wipes which really help. TMI but there maybe some further in also. :o so a supositry (sp) maybe an idea to treat them too. HTHS 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

Minedoesn't t hurt but I have heard of creams for them but I didn't know if they were just to ease them or help to reduce in size and hopefully it disappear.I ll see how I go but I would prefer to get rid of it. Thanks
