Any news about rehoming SD

Nothing yet, I have to call the rescue on Tuesday again to see how far up the list he is. The girl I spoke to this week was only on her first day so wasn't sure and no one else to ask because they'd all went home.
I've had no other responses from my other ads but I've been told that not many have had responses this week, I suppose it's due to the holidays.

Tesco vs Asda from today:


T. SKIMMED MLK 2.272L/4 PINTS
£1.29 £1.00
HOVIS SOFT WHITE MEDIUM 800G
£1.35 £1.00
BERNARD MATTHEWS SLICED TURKEY BREAST 140G
£2.10 £2.00
ANDREX T/TISSUE SHEA BUTTER 9 ROLL
£5.00 £4.00
FLORETTE CRISPY SALAD 200G
£1.50 £1.24

Tesco vs Morries
FLORETTE CRISPY SALAD 200G
£1.50 £1.00
HOVIS SOFT WHITE MEDIUM 800G
£1.35 £1.00
ANDREX T/TISSUE SHEA BUTTER 9 ROLL
£5.00 £4.00

Don't forget that, on the Bernard Matthews Turkey Breast, although A is cheaper, £2.00 isn't 10% cheaper than £2.10, so, if you have an A near you, it should be Avs T. In fact, Avs T in 2s (T 2 for £3) (S £2 each). In fact, Avs T in 2s on an APG multibuy glitch day.

If the Florette Crispy Salad is T £1.50 vs A £1.24 and T £1.50 vs M £1.00, then it's T v M? Wrong! It's A vs M, on this result. This was known about - but 90p for 'only' 200g of salad is too expensive for me. Similarly, the Hovis Soft White Medium would also be A vs M. I am aware of possible criticism of my approach on the next one: the 4 pint skimmed milk would be Avs M in 3s.

Anon

When I did the Jackpot 247 offer a while back it didn't track instantly but they paid out after submitting a claim.

When *ahem* Mrs Anon signed up last week, it hasn't tracked automatically and a claim has been submitted. My conclusion from this, and some other companies on TCB and Quidco, is either I am extremely unlucky (different computer, different browser) with items not tracking (despite others tracking without incident) or the tracking system on some of the networks they use is either faulty or deliberately misses/rejects some.

There are some that tracked correctly then confirmed at £0 that I have had to chase on numerous occassions - I cannot be the only one so I would prefer they removed them rather than keep advertising suppliers who are effectively scamming people as some people won't bother to claim. I trust Quidco and TCB, I don't trust some of their suppliers to be honest (you should not have to chase, indeed Quidco and TCB shouldn't as they have better things to do too!).

EASTER BUNNY ….

A man is driving along a highway and sees a rabbit jump out across the middle of the road.

He swerves to avoid hitting it, but unfortunately the rabbit jumps right in front of the car.

The driver, a sensitive man as well as an animal lover, pulls over and gets out to see what has become of the rabbit. Much to his dismay, the rabbit is the Easter Bunny, and he is DEAD.

The driver feels so awful that he begins to cry.

A beautiful blonde woman driving down the highway, sees the man crying on the side of the road and pulls over.

She steps out of the car and asks the man: “What's wrong”?

"I feel terrible, he explains, "I accidentally hit the Easter Bunny with my car and KILLED HIM."

The blonde says: "Don't worry."

She runs to her car and pulls out a spray can. She walks over to the limp, dead Easter Bunny, bends down, and sprays the contents onto him.

The Easter Bunny jumps up, waves its paw at the two of them and hops off down the road.

Ten feet away he stops, turns around and waves again, he hops on down the road another 10 feet, turns and waves, hops another ten feet, turns and waves, and repeats this again and again, until he hops out of sight.

The man is astonished. He runs over to the woman and demands:

"What is in that can? What did you spray on the Easter Bunny?"

The woman turns the can around so that the man can read the label. It says......



Are you ready for this? …….


OK, here it is




It says: "Hair Spray- Restores life to dead hair, and adds permanent wave."



HappyEaster!!!

It was a womble; actually it wasn't even a womble, more a gift. On SS till and the PP and receipt of previous user just fell into my open shopping bag.

They do work the same day but don't always scan. If the number is keyed in manually it will work though.

Evening

I have just completed my first online shop using the £12 off evoucher and a few other vouchers. Delivery is for Tuesday 2nd, the last day of the wine festival.

I bought 6 meal deals with the Montepulciano, a £5.26 PP and a £2 Finest but the 25% off the wines did not come off at the till.

I was expecting a further discount of around £10.50 to take the whole order down to around £30. Can anyone please confirm if the discount is applied when I receive the final receipt with the order?

Many thanks in advance.
