    So far today I have

    Shopped

    Hoovered

    Washed up

    Done the washing and hung it out

    Sorted and counted my shoes

    Repotted yet more tomato plants

    And started sorting through my stuff for car boot on Sunday


    I'm knackered!

    Well done

    I've done something I was putting off for ages

    Did I do a washing? No
    Did I do any ironing? No
    Did I do any cleaning? No
    Did I do any cooking? No
    Did I clip all my Dr O MOCs and file them together by coupon type? Yup, nearly got tendonitis again :rotfl:

    I'm sure the missus will be well impressed with my productivity today, don't you? :rotfl:

    Dm apparently there are 4p headphones in Ts. Someone posted about them yesterday.....can't remember who. They were found around the clothing section and are from this brand

    :D Great minds. Everything is written down and I may just do that one day. Somehow I don't think he's quite finished supplying me with material yet :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Hi Claire I think that would be a great idea to write a book . I find what you say about things your son comes out with hilarious.

    Unexpected dtd today. End of aisle promo - Colgate bogof.

    I got 2 x Colgate Max White One Toothpaste - sel £2.27, just to try it. Went through the till at £3.99 each. When I went to CS, a new one said, oh not another one. As I took her to the display, she said that it had been the 4th H&B wrongly priced in the past few hours.

    Called a DM who kindly explained that they had had a 'big turnaround in the H&B section'. Went on to say that the layouts that HO had sent were all wrong and the wrong stuff had been put in the wrong places! Further inspection showed that the bogof was for the 100ml size but mine was the 75ml size! Then said to CS that HO have 'male part of the anatomy'ed' (:o) it up again. Wrong displays and charging more for a 75ml tube than a 100ml tube on bogof! Apologised to me and told CS to treat it as an overcharge, adding that wondered how many more mistakes would be found! :D When DM had left, CS told me that as I had been overcharged, it was their policy to give dtd and refunded £11.42. :D

    If anyone has some free time, may be worth checking out a few sel's. ;)

    On another note, they had a half price special on the prepacked 'From the butcher', outdoor reared smoked and unsmoked bacon, 480g for £1.80.

    You mean "I moved 3 books and then pulled out a chair to sit on because I was so tired" right? :p
