    By the way me and Truffle Hunter did our photo shoot this morning with lots of giggling. Especially when the postman came. :rotfl:


    We were both far too :o to show any leg but think it is fitting for the month of May. ;)

    if you had been on the wine bet we would have seen a leg shot ;) :rotfl::rotfl:

    Someone has pm'd me with reference to taking stuff back to Mr T's. Apparently they are a staff member so don't want to post it themselves and have asked me to post it for them.

    If you print a mini bank statement that shows the transaction number and date/time of whatever info your bank provides (if you have paid by card) then this is considered a legal receipt .

    So I assume what they are saying is, if you have a Mr T's transaction on your bank statement, then you can say it is for the clothes you bought and they will accept that. Obv it has to be for the same amount or more than what your taking back;)

    this is the same as the Mr A staff info sheet that is on display in my local

    I got the Lovetub in Sainsburys this am, paid £1.29 & £1.29 deducted with coupon no problem. I found them in the chiller cabinet but had to ask as they're so small. Only enough for one, ok as a freebie but certainly wouldn't pay for it.

    Hi
    Could someone tell me the ex of these coupons?:beer:

    Thanx

    I was told this by a member of staff when I was trying to take something back and couldn't find the receipt. You just hand over any bank statement as long as it is for the same or more than the cost of the item. :)

    True, but I buy size 8 clothes for my wife.

    Then return for size 10 because the 8s don't fit

    Then return the 10s because they also don't fit, whilst acting sheepish and saying "I was trying to do her a favour but she can just come in herself and get them"

    ;)

    ETA, also sometimes use "this doesn't match her shoes/bag/mood" :rotfl: all the while rolling my eyes.

    Have not had time to catch up from last night had a quick look at about 5:30 this morning and read zippys post :T:T:T
    Could not get there till after work and a quick coffee so logged on just to see a message from my favorite personal shopper ;):rotfl: telling me to go and buy wine.
    So thanks to all who thought of it, tried it and told me to go :beer:
    Quite a few bottles :o and there could be another couple of dozen coming after my mate goes tonight :D

    Have noticed a few posts about flowers/ etc as was skimming.

    My thoughts :o
    I donated for flowers or that's what I thought for Mad. Think it would be nice gesture for the family. Had already donated to the justgiving for research purposes.

    I've been lurking for a while as hubby not very well.

    I'm extremely saddened to hear about Mad, but, when he posted I just knew that the news would soon be not good. Bless him for his vast understatement!:A I couldn't post earlier as was too upset.

    Personally I don't believe in flowers, but I do realise not everyone shares my views. QOC - you're doing a fine job & those that want to give for flowers should have their feelings taken into account. No-one should try and change the gateposts now. I'd prefer to give to a charity that might help us all get rid of this cancer curse - seen too many of my family/friends plagued by this scourge. I made a small donation a couple of days back, wish it could have been more.

    I'm going to do a Sainsburys' double up later with my vast amount of Nectar points & hoping to get most of my Nectar spend back in BM's. If it works & it should, then I'll post. Look out for it as it should be pretty good - even if I say so myself! :):eek:

    Hiya,

    I'm interested to see your shop:T

    I've been doing this for a few weeks and have had a £10 BM running over every week. I'm getting spirits each week:) will try the Haagan daaz for a BM against A this week
