    Why is it those around us just don't get it. I have the same problem with the O2 priority moments, don't have a smart phone so limited on the ones I can get, my girls do so always let them know when there is something good but they hardly ever do it.

    DD2 has even been forgetting to print out her Dr Os vouchers so a lot of them have gone out of date. I even said I would do the leg work for her and get them if she bothered to print them out.

    I think it's often because, if we look at it from their perspective, it does somewhat consume your life if you let it. Grocery shopping on the cheap is now my only real hobby. I still do other stuff but when I'm online I have here as my first tab and read every single post, which is very time-consuming. Maybe they think it will take too much effort to work as hard as we do? We may think it is fun, but when you look at the hours put it in, it's tough, too.

    Good luck :)

    Have your sofas been delivered yet ?

    I am not decorating bathroom nor kitchen because next year we supposed to be having either a new kitchen or a new bathroom but area manager reckons I need both which I do. She told me council coming assessing in December. So fingers crossed I am lucky for once in my life and get both ;)

    Part 2:rotfl:
    I bet you wish you could just get on with it instead of waiting till dec:(

    Is the limit per collection period still 30000cc points?

    Think I better apply for a few more cards:rotfl:

    Your basically getting a 50% discount :T

    It is 30,000 but be careful about getting too many as some peps have had issues in the past:)

    Most muggles think is to much work and effort but like the benefits:)

    Very true aaarrrggghhh. Definitely a lot of hours put in but I do like that I can choose when to put them in. It has caused a few cross words between me and my OH before now though. :o

    I guess I get cross with the girls because I do the ground work so they don't have to but sometimes they don't appreciate it. Although now that DD1 has left home she did ring me to research cheapest toilet rolls the other day. :rotfl:

    I already have a couple of 16 roll packs here for her, as they only had room to take 2 with them to their little flat to start with. ;) I absolutley love my hobby, I enjoy the thrill of the chase and the warm feeling when sharing out the spoils. Not sure any other sport would do the same. :)

    I was looking for it yesterday as well :( Hopefully we're just lagging behind as usual?
    Ive noticed before that Southport is our next nearest store apparently. 15 miles? I think that might involve a donning a swimming costume and getting wet :rotfl::rotfl:
    I used to go to the S store when i visited my Gran.. it's a lovely store and is huge. Not sure about scanners though
    It's great, isn't it? Our monthly household grocery bill (food, drink, alcohol, toiletries, cleaning, etc) is around £50 a month in real money. Utterly amazing people almost literally throw money away.
    Wow that is fabulous. Well done. I began a spreadsheet in Nov last year that took into account all my APG's, PP's, BM's, moc's (you get the idea:p). Kept it up for a few months but could never figure out a real monthly spend doe to me stockpiling. I guess i should tally everything up over a 6 or 12 month period and do it that way. I doubt i could get it into double figures though so well done you:T

    Hi aaarrrggghhh

    Thanks for your list.
    Just wondering about the Buster one at top, saying to print and email mysupermarket.
    I emailed them the other day asking if it was still possible to do this and got this reply -

    Thanks for contacting mySupermarket and for your interest in mySuperlist! The good news is the Android App is due out this month, hopefully next week. The bad news is we cannot validate Cashback for receipts emailed to us as the system was abused and we're looking to make it more secure.

    However the wait is nearly over and it will be worth it! Keep an eye on our social channels for more updates!

    Reply was from terri/aka locarr :D:p......very similar writing style there!

    (text has gone all small as last paragraph of Terri's email had smaller text and i can't change)

    I know who Alice is but who the fork is Terri!!???:huh:
