    I bet that's a better feeling than getting it yourself. well done her/them
    looks like she gets help from bf, wish my dw would help:)

    Yes zippy, certainly is as she is learning the value of money buying shopping herself. She's a veggie, bf isn't, so we get the whoopsied quorn etc for her when we see it. Her bf also loves a bargain. My mum says they'll not want, I think she's right :)

    At least you had someone to tell you, even if you did soon stop listening. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    Sounds a bit like me trying to get used to this phone which is new to me, and my DS coming along when he hears me shouting at it as he knows if he doesn't get there quick the thing would probably be out the window. Wheres my old Nokia brick? :o:o:o

    I love my old nokia brick and threatened to buy a new one today :D
    My current phone is Hubbys old tocco light and i've never got used to it, I hate touch screen phones :mad: they never seem to do what I want them to do.
    If someone on the phones annoying me I like to hammer the button to slam the phone down or text them in an aggressive manner by hammering the keys :D

    After reading how people organise their coupons I think mine may be a bit OCD :eek:
    I have an old photo album which I keep nearly all my coupons in and go through it at least once a week to make sure they're all in date.
    I also have a concertina folder (A5 size) which we bought DS1 for secondary school (RTC :D ) and he has never used :mad: which I currently keep all my Dr O coupons in as there's way to many of those for my usual folder (nearly 60 sets :o )
    I'm trying to remember if Bubbs has seen my folders or not :D

    I am looking at photo albums with pockets on as we speak :):o

    Sorry, these were the coupons from the T's mag, I think maybe June/July issue?

    I have learnt from this thread to never throw away any coupons until they expire... It's a good job DD loves to cut coupons for mummy:rotfl::rotfl:


    July/August issue with lady in lace dress on the front. 70P AND 50p Vimto coupons on page 86. They are for Vimto squash and I have been using 1 of each against 500ml bottles on offer for 2 for £2.00 for weeks ( so 20p refund on each bottle). I have a few!!. Also used both on lollies. useful for making up a larger shop and price match to Morrisons if doing a PP shop

    Don't mention the APP. :eek:

    Confused I am, like many others. :o
    I don't think I can get it on my Samsung, it's a galaxy y. Cheap and cheerful from CWhouse but I don't think it's any good for these apps. It has google play to search apps, but msl isn't there, :(

    Don't tell me I have to go out and pay more money for a mobile to do my shopping, if so, who has an idea of the cheapest one that I could use please?

    You should be able to get it elsie, the Galaxy Y runs on Android 2.3.6 Gingerbread. How well it will run is another matter, the app seems to be a bit flaky on android at the moment.

    It's a pain to find in the playstore, I had to search for it

    Try using LFABs link

    Sounds like we have the same ideas, yours sounds a familiar story.....
    Also when I can't type something in on the touch screen my DS says 'It's coz of Your Sausage Fingers MUM!' :cool::cool::cool:
    I do have to :rotfl: at him though, and I get my own back telling him he has girlie hands, which is true! :D

    Just remember you are so much better than them :D

    And one other thing, if they are trying to get rid of you, you must be really peeing them off by staying :D

    Aww thanks hon. I shall think of that tomorrow. I kept my head down last week and it was OK so I doubt why it won't be tomorrow.

    Besides I am off laptop shopping on Wednesday. Woohoo! Still can't decide what to get. Any thoughts any computer experts? I must remember not to pick up the first one I see and pay this time! LOL.

    can you imagine the persil bod's face when he has to check it :rotfl:

    Only joking savvy :A, you can write mine if you want, though I am tempted to go with aau1's really really funny one :)

    :rotfl::rotfl:

    I'm sure I can get the exact number of words if/when I come to write mine - that's what I'm all for - exactness:D. I did try the Andrex (BTW I've nothing against 'big brands' of loo roll, it's just that they are almost never the cheapest option - and the ones that are work fine enough for me - it's not as if it's a product you have to eat or anything - so I've no idea why people go for 'softness' or anything like that - too emotional a word I guess for me:rotfl:).

    I tried the Andrex and didn't like it - didn't think it was soft, so claim has gone off. Even though I'll be MSE and use the loo roll of course, as softness or not of this product is totally irrelevant to me in any event!

    Also did a 'missing the point' one with some dishwasher tabs a long time ago - they wanted to know if they made my dishes shiny and I said I didn't notice any difference (perhaps I wasn't looking at their shininess but was looking at something else:D).

    Oh...welcome back from me by the way!!:):)
