    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    That would be £15.98 v £6 so would almost max out your PP. if fillers don't contribute further to PP then you'd be ok and able to claim £3.20 clicksnap

    £6-£3.20 = 2.80 for 6 (potentially less a further £1.75 MSL or even £1.98 as one of your 9 cokes would be full price)

    Love your thinking :T:T

    Shame I don't drink coke :o
