    i went for a razor but the sel had changed:( Had to settle for some free silverside:)

    They're ganging up on us - it was a razor I went for too! Didn't manage to get ANYTHING for free, they were too good today, any OOD SELs were either still accurate or the items they referred to were cheaper :eek:

  • Avios tip:

    1000 Avios when first-timers order £300 of foreign currency through the British Airways link before 31st March (pick up at airport or £5 delivery) or £500 order gives you free delivery.
    . https://www.travelmoneynow.com/britishairways/uk/ and/ or the Avios website link http://www.avios.com/gb/en_gb/collect/americanexpress/americanexpress-currency-exchange?from=collectNav

    Note: can be done per account, possibly at both BA Exec Club AND at Avios.com - though will only be credited if the account name is the same as on your order. Eg we have an Avios 'The Squillion Household' a/c and I won't try that.

    Good if you need foreign currency anyway. Use Amex card and you earn points per £ ie treated as a purchase not a cash advance.

    Actually it's more Avios than that as you get 1 Avios point for every £1 you order.

    So if you use an Amex card and order £500 you will get 2000 Avios

    = 1000 bonus + 500 Avios for £500 currency bought + 500 Amex points (= 500 Avios)

    To buy 2000 Avios would currently cost you £47 (not a good idea, wait until bonuses appear if you have to buy).

    Thankyou all for your kind wishes, cracking the whip at home for a little help as it is my right hand. Happy to say DD2 &DS1 are helping.

    Just been to watch DGD1 in a school production of Cinderalla, great little show, singing their little socks off, well done tutors of year 1 and of course all the children.

    Shopping on back burner as can't drive and also cant carry a heavy load but open to browsing. My Tasco are in my opinion very efficient,
    Serpantyne Grxxn. Peterbh so dont find alot.

    Would like to thank everyone for their helpful posts and sharing. Have a good day everyone and thinking of you all that have toubles and share I know the support here is great :):):)

    Hope you recover quickly SHG :)

    I agree about S Green, they seem very on the ball. I headed for Bourn3 the other evening, much better ;) though a little but further for you I'm guessing

    Regarding the Rolson torches from Mr T. Someone mentioned the other night that they bought one that did not work. I bought one a couple of days ago and could not find how to switch it on. The young male SA was really nice and said that you need to unscrew the top, take out the bulb and under the pcb there is a red paper disc that need removing. hth

    Emptying skips ? - no problem

    Sneaking stuff INTO skips YOU haven't paid for ? Grrrr :mad:

    PS Was quite offended noone took anything from the one on our drive for 2 weeks - I thought we had a pretty decent class of carp :)

    I agree with this one, we hired a skip once and next door were having their house decorated the cheeky decorator just dumped all his old tins of paint in our skip. I was more annoyed that he didnt ask, I would have said yes but he just did it. Skip hire is sooo expensive
    If it wasn't for blinds it'd be curtains for all of us:dance:

    Read terms of the site, u have to wager the bonus amount so many times, however will take your cash first but this will count towards wagering requirements......

    £20 bonus
    Wager x4
    Play through £80

    If they don't work it out for you. Add up how much spent on tickets then u will know how much need spend before can withdraw....

    If u ever have chance not accept any bonus, do so.

    I saw you won a few times last night :T
    If you log into the account page there is a section called 'wallet'. In there it tells you how much is remaining of the £120 you have to play through. The 'real balance' will keep going down until you have played through the bonus then the bonus goes and the balance remains. That's when you can withdraw whatever is left. Hope that makes sense. Think someone else explained it yesterday (no doubt better :cool:)

    Think we had to accept bonus on the bgo one.
    So basically I just have to keep going till Ive bought £120 worth of tickets (that was mentioned somewhere on the site) and then it will start using my bonus?

    Edit. Its ok logie already answered when I was writing this post :)

    Mornin all

    Not at work today cause its my birthday. So I was up late last night as no hurry to wake up this morning. Decided to give the BGO Bingo thing a whirl. I've read the T&C's on the website and everyone explanation of how it works. I think I'm really thick cause I'm not following it at all - but in any event I think I may have won £700. It let me withdraw to my paypal account but nothing has since appeared in my Paypal although the initial £10 paid out does.

    Now I'm not sure if there's some other requirement I should have met before they will release money into Paypal as on T&C's there's mention of Security verification documents under the section 'Important Withdrawal Points'

    My TCB wasn't showing up last night but it is in pending now

    can i ask which razor you both had your eyes on please, these are on my glitch wish list as cost a fortune with 3 men in the house!
    I am heading out to Mr T soon and will take a look if our store aint so much on the ball as yours.
    TIA

    Happy Birthday simone, how long ago did you win the money, congrats too. Check on the site to see if they have messages u for id info. I assume PayPal may take few days to receive money, they not on a let seven hundred quid out that fast. I'd say give it like give it five day, u could always ask the women on the chat thing for info on withdrawals.... Keep us informed.... Although don't know how the hell u won seven hundred quid on that site!
    SIMPLES!
