Well done savingsbabs. Not an easy thing to do and keep up with glitching and wombling.:beer:
TS how about a nice scarf for your secret santa gift.
Think there was an offer on grabbit. Not sure of retailer but was british designer.
Picked up my cheese, pastry and yogurt cc and was charged for special k. Is it best to phone or fb? Also had overcharge in ikea monday so must ring them along with BS tomorrow. (Well I needed lyb cards to put in various xmas cards).
Regarding mr t and gift cards. Taking mum tomorrow to get the giftcards she needs and have plenty of coupons.
Can we do one big transaction to get all points or do we need to split the shop up.
At latest count mum needs £250 of cards but couple of those will be used in next buying gifts. I need mr t vouchers for my eldest 2 as they can then use on practically everything and think ds1 will put towards second ipad as dgs uses it a lot.
Hoping to collect some loo roll thanks to chrisv and have so many mr t coupons I will also do a random shop to use a few up.
So enjoying have house to myself again:j

Well done savingsbabs!
Picked up my first 4 pack of nouvelle today. Almost trouted but I was really bold and questioned why they wouldn't take the coupon. They gave the 'we don't take internet coupons' line but I pointed out it had a scannable barcode and my name on the coupon so they relented.
Also got a Ts finest choc pud using my orchard 2.50 coupon- thanks to PD for the suggestion- 30p after moc
Just incase anyone had problems printing nouvelle coupon I'm having the coupon sent out to me as for some reason it wouldn't print.Also does anyone know what chocolate combinations are giving the best return please,I have an apg for just over £20 from the tesco finish glitch which needs to be used tomorrow
TIA x0 -

What are orchard coypons tia x
Orchard is a trial at Ts. They send you coupons to buy things, you eat/use those things then review them
A bit like bzzz agent? Is that right? I've not done that one before.Debt free 6th December 2014
