    Still playing catch-up but have to go out soon. so respodning to bits I have seen so far.

    Squills, following Raffles and your posts now, thanks for all the tips :T
    Question time on BBC one is interesting at the moment. How responsible do you feel for the deaths of those Bangladeshi workers given that we all want cheap clothes and therefore have to accept that some corners may be cut in order to meet those cost targets?

    Watched a programme on this, that said if we didn't buy cheap clothes, those Bangladeshi workers would have no jobs and no money.

    NHS - about the best thing about the UK. It might not be the best, and it certainly has faults, but it is better than most.
    On a side point, I would like private health care, as I dont fancy sharing a room with 5 others if I have to go into hospital, anyone have bupa or anything, and how much is it a month?

    Use a broker or comparison site, bupa will be one of the most expensive. If you only want a private room but are happy with NHS service then a plan that gives you something back for using the NHS may be more what you are looking for, like HSA or similar.

    Full private care is going to give you access to services not available on the NHS and faster access to healthcare. It costs. Cheapest is to join a group scheme if you can find or pay ££££. Other options, like schemes that only cover you if the NHS wait is long, would be cheaper.

    Is a BA exec account the same as an Avios one or should I have both? I have the BA exec one but don't have an Avios one, should I open an Avios account too?
  • Also, HUGE thanks to the OP for the baby bubble bath.

    I got 5 of the purple and 1 white and despite not showing on the SEL, the receipt confirms BABY TOILETRIES 3F2C/F

    The purple one is soothing bedtime bath #1868 SEL 27p and the white one is moisturising bath bubbles #4470 SEL 27p.

    Both from the T Loves Baby & Toddler Range.

    I also used MOC's from SSM to get a free pack of always towels and a free pack of always liners. SSM have a £1 MOC for each and both are on special at £1 :D happy days.

    Then I bought 2 tins of the Parioli toms, SEL said 1/2 price 50p so got 2 with two printed MOC through SS. SA had to manually input as they did not scan.

    I also noticed baby chicks on the reduced shelf for 25p and they scanned as such. Two types, 12 yellow or 4 pink & 4 blue. Yellow #2923 and blue & pink #1261.

    Finally, I found the malteaster bunnies clipstrip on top of a shelf, still scanning at 25p.

    Hope everyone is well today x

    Followed by a STALKER again in Tesco the last 3 times I have been there this crazy woman has waved and shouted then proceeded to rake around in my trolley looking at what I am buying.
    Starting to get a bit worried as these 3 times have been over a 16 day [STRIKE]period[/STRIKE] time frame.
    Anyone else think this is really strange :eek:

    What?! :eek: Does she work for the store? I'd be quite miffed/afraid if someone did that to me...

    Now that I've printed off my first Dr Oetker vouchers I can see why everyone was so eager to get them :money:

    I'm particularly looking forward to using the £2.79 value ones next March! ;rotfl:

    Surely we can work some magic with that....


    The T&Cs on the site say that promotional packs were going to be available from March 2013 for 8 weeks/whilst stocks last. I wonder how much longer they'll last now that we know their value ;)

    Well, I have the avios one, but am now wondering if I gain anything by having a BA one too? The costs seem to be the same, so why have both?
