    What's the return on the eggs if u don't mind me asking plz Flo?

    If you get 3 eggs (3 for £10 at asda) that compare full price to £2 at sainsbrys then you should get back an apg of £9.60.

    That's assuming it works today.

    Quick Q for you lovely people :)
    I'm off out to Ts this morning and need to grab one of the pyrex dishes as my kids have managed to smash all my pyrex :mad:
    Planning on grabbing a dish and a few other bits of shopping.
    If it goes over £20 before the discount for the dish is applied would it possibly generate a 'helping hand' MOC for me to use next week....
    I'm probably gonna try it anyway as I could do with the MOC for next week and I never manage to womble anything that's any good :(
    I never bought the knives or glasses or anything and know this time round it's stickers so wondered if they're processing the discount differently.
    Any help appreciated :)

    Well we are now back home. She is in her bed having had a hot chocolate and a sleeping pill they gave her to take. She was on the drip till 8.00p.m. then they sent off bloods told us at 10.30 all was clear and Mental Health team would come at 11.30 to see her and discharge her. OH went on home and boyfriend and I waited for her. She has an appt with our doctor on Tuesday ( she had already made this herself) so they were happy that doctor will help her or she can refer back to them.
    I just sat on the bed and had a chat with her as she wanted to know what happened cause she cant remember from about an hour after she took them until about 3.00p.m.this afternoon. DS is coming home Sunday from London to see her and my younger brother and sister have been fab since last night.
    Regarding the job she has worked 3 days a week at an Estate agents for the last 5 months but was looking for a full time job. So they said they would make her up to full time working 45 hours 1 week and 49 the next. she was on minimum wage of £6.19 per hour and they said they would put her on a salary and commision. She was so pleased as she really likes the job.
    Anyway she started new hours on Monday and told me she thought he might give her £7.00 or £7.50 per hour. But he came to office yesterday afternoon and have her a piece of paper that said her basic salary would be £8000.00 per year with £15.00 per reservation for rentals, £20.00 per renewal of leases and 1% per sale. She said since she has worked there they have only had 2 renewals, they average 3 rentals a month and have only sold 1 house in the 5 months she has been there,
    We worked it out that a minimum wage she should be on about £15000 for those hours. She told me the supervisor in the office gets £250.00 reservation fees paid straight into her bank account. So it would seem he expects her to work more hours for less money and the magic £8000.00 is to avoid him paying 13% Employers NI and he would be paying her the fees in cash. He also does not let them have a lunch break on a 8.5 hour day.
    Dont know how she stands re notice etc as she has only been there a short time.
    My main worry is her health but she is calm and sleeping and talking to me about it all. Her bf was fab and really helped as did her Dad.
    Many thanks for all your kind thoughts.

    hi rose.

    this job doesn't sound worth it. if the boss is like this now, then he will always be.

    her health is the most important thing, money isn't everything. better to get a minimum wage job and wait for another opportunity.

    Morning all. :D

    I have to go and marry peeps today, but hopefully there should be time for an easter egg raid at some stage in proceedings as well. Here's hoping!

    Wishing all a good, happy and productive day, with hugs to all who are likely to be challenged along the way. x
    Hope is not a strategy.
