    Good afternoon, weather miserable here today.

    Managed to get my washing machine sorted last night, well OH did, he was pulling his hair out and moaning at me to buy one of those bags to put socks and small bits in, cause he is fed up of trying to retrieve them when they cause a blockage.

    Evening everyone
    Haven't said hi to any of you for a while, RL been a bit hectic. Last time I posted it was for advice on a cake stall I had to run for charity. Well if anyone remembers me asking for different things to make, I did make the maltesers biscuit cake and I made mars bar rice krispie cake. I also made some cake pops, which I thought I would share as I was especially proud of them.

    Feel like I have been missing out lately as have barely even had time to lurk, have not joined in..apart from pizzas and I have wanted to post so many times to share and say hi, but kids, starting a part time evening job and now doing my driving theory on Fri..too much going on. Co-worker said the other day, aren't I a bit old to learn to drive and I am only just 34, have had lessons years ago, always talked about doing it, then OH buys me the theory test with only 11 days to practice. I am determined to pass it as I don't want to have to pay for it..:rotfl:

    I hope everyone is well, have I missed anything important? I did catch the veet reviews earlier, very funny..:)

    Those cake pops look lovely, and good look for your driving theory test, you are never too old to drive, it is the best thing I have ever done.

    Toothpaste, comfort, lenor, ariel liquid stuff, 5 beans, baked beans, plenty kithcen roll, ambrosia, persil washing up liquid, goodness knows what other cleaning stuff, Palmolive hand soap and shampoo/conditioner are all things I don't envisage having to buy any more of this year :cool:

    However, I could do with radox, shower gel, toilet roll, cereal and diet coke are all on my wish list :D

    Not a glitch but Coke and Diet Coke 24 packs are £5 on offer in Ts this week.

    I have just eaten nearly all of my Graze box in one go :eek:

    Great service but they didn't really send what I was hoping for, I put I loved a few things but I got stuff I said I liked or didn't even rate. It is nice but if you were paying ;) you would want stuff more like what you asked for.

    But nice for free and already cancelled the subscription lol!

    Not sure whether the TCB tracked as I also have been blocked lol...:naughty:

    If you click to say that you are interested in their breakfast (porridge) boxes they will send you an email with a code for a free box :D

    Also you are better off ticking the don't send/like box because if you don't rate them they are automatically marked as 'would like to try'. On the porridge I marked everything except the 4 I wanted to try as don't like :D

    I thought as much... I did rate about 30 things but then I got bored!

    I joined the waiting list for the breakfast boxes is that the right way to do it? I couldn't see another option, although I already cancelled so they may be less keen to give me more freebies...:D

    That's right

    I was cancelled when I requested mine as well - I had an email within 24 hours :D

    Make sure you re-cancel it after the porridge box

    Well done you! :T I'm so jealous! I've only managed to get 8 tins of toms, 4 at a time. SA called the manager both times. :mad:The manager reluctantly accepted the coupons but then after that I got even one coupon rejected. I could have done with a bit more, as I go through an awful lot of toms. I've been meaning to try other stores but haven't managed yet. Hope they extend the offer of 50p for a tin.

    Hi HZA,

    It sounds like you have been very unlucky with your t3sc0s, as you say a different store maybe a better option and it may help boast your confidence. I hope the offer is extended but I think it is very very unlikely since when I just checked their website the tomato3s came up as full price.

    Be brave and if you can visit a t3sc0 give it another go :):):)
