    How much did you pay for the soda stream QOC? :)

    I ordered two and paid £34 something.

    I couldn't use the code, it said it was invalid. Which means that I *should* be able to use the registration code properly ask never used it first time round ;)

    i have green paper so it will allow das course but online everything points to 69-75 for the das course which says to me im unlucky with being booked at 68

    it must be his xmas bonus week

    Well unless his equipment was massively out of calibration you must have been speeding to some extent....I'm not judging (I went on the course myself last Dec :o ) but speeding is speeding and you can be booked at anything over the legal limit (granted they probably wouldn't do anything up to 2mph over to allow for tolerances)

    At least you get to do the course and keep a clean licence :)

    What's the complaint? you were doing 68 in a 60 on the slipway, you're lucky it only a fine you ended up with. I see pish poor driving every day and 99.99% accidents are caused by driver error but it would seem speeding is condoned on here.:(




    the beef went in to the basket on tuesday at full price and online codes come off the full price of the order but beef dropped to 1/2 the next day giving you a 75% off full price:cool:
    Does that mean we are to late to order then ?:)

    hi all:)



    would love to have someone in real life to share deals etc with, people at work just laugh and ask what bargains i've got lately and others just ask me to show them the freebies and give up when have to look at several websites, fill in details lots of times:cool:
    DH leaves most of online shopping for me, think only thing he has done is when ebay have those £5 voucher codes

    People have varying reactions, I don't mention it but if they find out re my glitchy other life they
    a. are bored and cannot understand it and class me as eccentric
    OR
    b. they like it but only if i do all the hard work...
    I think I'd rather have set a. less tiring
    either way I don't care I spend less money on essentials and less money on luxuries and end up with more for me and mine eg daughter and elderly mother than others. I'm willing to put the work in but some aren't/have no time to so.. each to their own.

    Worth noting that the criteria for attending the courses is at local police forces discretion, it's not the same everywhere. I was unlucky enough to be fined for speeding in one of the few places in the country that didn't offer them at all!! :cool:

    I am an absolute and utter nugget:mad:

    DD has just sent me a link to some trainers she would like for Christmas. I just popped in her size and placed the order, asking DH if DD had used this website before. He said yes and I placed the order. As I pressed the submit button I realised something was not right.

    What an idiot I am:mad:
