    Been a good weekend mse wise

    Sat
    Free Clinigue serum (worth £20 and £20 more to get in two weeks)
    Free sunglasses 02
    Free ProPure flapjack 02
    Free Lucazade 02
    Free 4.95 salad for me - well 99p courtesy of Grazia mag
    Had 2 older grandchildren with me shopping so they had meal deal each - they choose the whopper 3 chicken sandwich pack, biggest pack of crisps and most fav drink (they usually get whats on offer so nice for them to beable to choose what they wanted). 2 meal deals for £5 in Boots and 40p coupon from mag and 40p cashback TCB.
    I doubled up some cc points, for clothes, and bought them new school uniform bits like trousers, shirts and skirts etc. So all that needs to be bought now is blazer and shoes.
    Went to McD's after and had free frappes :)

    Today
    2 more x CoD
    10 free Rustlers - mixture of rib one and chicken, used 5 coupons and 10 bm back.
    20 packs of JC's so that will sort out the munchkins for a good few weeks/months
    Went blackberry picking and have loads of lovely sweet, large blackberries to eat.

    Wonder what tomorrow will bring. Thanks to everyone who posts deals etc x

    Keep your eyes peeled at Mr S. He is being very generous at the mo :beer:

    1200 points on a £30 spend? Yes please. I got one till spit on my shop and wombled another. Also an 800 point wys £20 on clothes :money:

    Nectar balance is possibly higher than ever right now (but still way way off my best tosco points total)

    That is he's being generous to you!:T:):) All he seems to keep offering me is 120 points (60p:(:() off a £30. Think I'll take up the £10 off £30 at T instead - maybe Mr S will come down to some reasonable figure more to my liking, in giving 'extra points', such as a £20 spend;):D:rotfl:. And more of those points than the 120 they're offering me!

    As for the question earlier of whether they base these on people's previous spends, I've never spent £60 or £70 in a shop so maybe, yes, they depend on what you've previously been spending. Perhaps if I spend less and less (in S, and now in T later) they'll bring the minimum WYS amount down. Let's disappear from S for a while and, if I go back, keep at £20 and never take up that £30 spend offer and they might, after a while, bring the WYS down to the £20 magic figure. You never know(?)!:rotfl::rotfl::)
