    Edit - I guess they're not then :(

    Sitting waiting for my Debenhams cancellation e-mails (placed 3 small orders for me and my Mum) and have to laugh because I've just got 2 sets of cashback tracked :D
    I may have lost an hour of my life placing the soon to be cancelled orders but I've gained 60p in cashback :rotfl:

    Comparison total (compared products only)

    Hi Vwgolf, hope you don't mind me doing a Savvy on your shop (No offence Savvy, I love your posts):)

    If you had separated your shop into two, Yogs against Sains, and Bread against T's (both made up to at least 8 items with cheaper/not more than 10% more expensive/ or n/a items) you would have got a lot more on your APG's.

    Apple Pie yogs don't compare with S, I think the confirmed ones are -

    Greek Style Corner with honeyed Apricot
    Greek Style Corner with Rhubarb
    Greek Style Corner Yogurt with Black Cherry
    Fruit Corner Red Cherry
    Fruit Corner Blueberry Yogurt
    Fruit Corner Strawberry
    Fruit Corner Blackberry & Raspberry
    Fruit Corner Peach & Apricot
    Crunch Corner Vanilla Yogurt & Chocolate Balls
    Crunch Corner Toffee Hoops
    Crunch Corner Banana Chocolate Flakes
    Crunch Corner Chocolate Digestive
    Corner Limited Edition Cookies& Cream

    Yep but BGO definitely paid out a big % in winnings, that's why I'd be tempted to stick £50 in to se what I get out. (I won't).

    As it is I think I will go down to my dad and tell him what to do.

    You can put me on the loser list for bingo haven't won a bean.

    Going to do the bgo once I'm home as I'm currently in Galway with only iPad so can't play.

    Actually thought when I seen so many winning on it, I might be in with a chance. :rotfl:

    Having put a claim into TCB, my William Hill has gone from 1p to £25-01:T

    Thank you for posting this, I have just checked my TCB account and mine is tracking at £25.01 too.
    I did not put a claim in though.:beer:

  • Regarding the gambling. I personally feel that its each to their own. Be your own counsel so to speak.

    When it comes to me, I know I have an addictive personality. This is the reason I didn't do drugs when all around me seemed to be doing them. I knew that whilst they all went back to work on a monday morning, i'd be the one, running around trying to get some more.

    I compare (and some might disagree with me, which is fine), gambling to drugs. I know that if I started up that street, I'd end up in a betting shop day in day out and i'd lose my house.

    Just my two penneth worth. I hope everybody is managing to keep nice and warm in this dreadful weather spell. So much for SPRING!

I did get the icbib & yogs last week though,Thank you for your kind help xx so happy with that, but everything else is going in one ear (missing my little brain) & going out the other ear...Im not understanding much at the momnet, I will keep reading through, each day & try & educate myself with all your kind & helpful posts thanks again x

    Welcome :beer:

    Just had a really embarrassing time in Sada trying to use a £13.xx Easter Egg/ Muller Rice APG. It took 4 people plus a phone call to decide whether i could use it or not. They were basically questioning whether it was a fake. CS confirmed that it should be £13.xx by putting into their APG computer and therefore I hadn't in fact forged myself a voucher but I was red as a beetroot by then. She told me that it must be wrong and that 'they' must have made a mistake and still had to phone upstairs to find out if it was OK to take it. I was so embarrassed, I still have an £18.xx one to use- don't think I dare now!

    Thank you to everyone whose advice has helped me in my desperate quest to make ends meet. x

    EDIT-Back on the quest, I've been away too long!
