    Not sure if old news but managed all these for a grand total of 18p. Will donate most to school and kids clubs for tombola prizes. Hope picture uploads ok, took a while figuring out how to it.

    Same b/c on all 1021

    Ooooh they're nice!
    I run a school tombola and we have the bottleopener keychains. Will keep my eyes open for these as they'd go down a storm too for the non drinkers :D

    It's not, I'm only a basic member so the only option i have is the snail e-mail one through the support inbox :(
    It's not a problem, last time I spent a week chasing them up they either gave in or realised their mistake and sent my cashback :D

    Yesterday around midday I was at Haslingden Tesco looking for 1p items. Tic Tacs had scanned full price in the morning (both varieties) at Accy having scanned for a penny 2 days earlier. The Jelly Beans were a penny at Accy, but at Haslingden there was a young man with a piece of paper checking the tic tacs. When I started looking he asked if I wanted any. They were spearmint, I told him I wanted fresh mint. He said he was looking for them as head office had sent through an EPW (Emergency Product Withdrawl) order on a list of items. He claimed it was because of there being something wrong with the products making them dangerous. I saw the list and it clearly said that the items on it had wrongly been reduced to clear at 1p. On the list were:

    Moshi Monsters sweets
    Tic Tacs (both varieties)
    Fizzers
    Jelly Beans.

    To double ckeck what was happening I went to Great Harwood, and found all these items missing, plus a box full of the Calofornia Honey Nuts was also missing from the shelf.

    So I decided not to continue on my search further a field. Just a heads up for anyone popping out specially.[/QUOTE

    Hi
    Moshi monster jelly sweets have just scanned for £1 . The fizzers and jelly beans were a penny though.

    <<<<<<<<Rhosynbach>>>>>>>>>> hugs

    What an amazing post ........hopefully the only way is up now as QoC said!

    You were an inspiration to many when you showed such bravery during all of this .........and I think you are even more inspiring now........what an emotional post - and a lesson to us all - you never really know what is going on with others, what trauma they have been through or are going through, this thread has been a haven for many ......and I pray that words from friends on here can somehow lessen your pain Rhosynbach

    Not really sure what to say rhosynbach.

    The last few words of your very touching post.

    "My life is back on track now"...

    You can't change the past, but sure can make a go of the future, and I wish you all the luck in the world, you sure as hell deserve it, after all the turmoil you've had to endure.
    Back to square one, no apg, no comment.
