  • Just been watching Christmas on Benefits. DJ Phil Taggart helped 4 people on jobseekers put on a budget party. Asked along to help sorce food and nibbles was Couponing kid Jordan (is he still 16 as doesnt seem to have aged for a while.
    Party put on with venue for £300 but I think most of that went towards the mulled cider. Surely Jordan could have found them so cheap booze:eek:

    nothing for me to watch, but I wonder if you used the code and then a free code from the oxford books.



    Oh that reminds me, a very nice lady (whom you met on holiday) did say she had some codes for me.
    Not sure if these would work with book codes as can't try. I think they might do as there is a code space.

    The thing is I don't think he's that savvy.

    The mocs he got for the charity , he told the companies what he was doing and asked them for mocs, plus he asked tosco if he could use that many. What's the bet he didn't use any dairy mocs ;)

    Morning/Night (Delete as applicable!)

    Everyone asleep here, but I'm wide awake now :mad:

    Phone rang about 2am. It was DM's emergency help line to say that she had drunk Whiskey and taken tablets and they had phoned an ambulance :eek:.

    Finally plucked up courage to phone hospital and spoke to a lovely nurse, who had just assessed her. Apparently she is sitting in Casualty in a wheelchair. Alert and OK. She was very reassuring, and told me to go back to bed, and not even think about driving 100 miles up the motorway as DM was fine. DM was just telling her about us coming up for Xmas and how she is looking forward to it:mad:.

    She does this regularly around holiday times. (I think she regards the NHS as a free holiday). I do feel guilty that I am not a good daughter and we don't get on very well together. (I seem to revert to my sulky 15 year old self, rather than a 51 year old grown up in her presence). I feel like the "Wicked Witch of the North West" at the moment. :(

    Sorry.

    M&S stashes look FAB, you lucky glitchers :j:j:j I have finished work today until the new year - soooo chuffed :beer: However, I have already fallen out with OH (and DS's to a lesser extent) due to my unreasonable demands, so I am really trying to chill out and not get so stressed :A
    I am on the lookout for some Famous Grouse whisky - I seem to have missed all the good offers on it, but I ordered 2 of the customised labels for some hard-to-buy-fors and now I need the whisky to go with the labels :beer: I have checked all the big shops, but if anyone has seen an offer on it in any of the smaller retailers, I would be most grateful for a heads-up :beer::beer:
    Good Morning everyone.
    On the labels, I trimmed mine & used the labels on OH's Baileys. It looks realy good. He will be happy with it anyway.

    Morning gang,

    I found a very useful filler for those wanting to meet a conditional spend on a TvA shop:

    Oral B Pro-Expert Pulsar Medium Compact 35 Toothbrush
    £6 vs £2

    + there's a 50p MOC up Super Savvy Me

    Just be careful, because there's a toothbrush with virtually the same name at T that is £2. You want to find the £6 one that has this barcode: 3014260319519

    It's marked as "out of stock" on T.com but the first store I went in had plenty.

    it's this one:
    http://www.mysupermarket.co.uk/tesco-price-comparison/Dental_Products/Oral_B_Pro_Expert_Pulsar_Medium_Compact_35_Toothbrush.html

    not this one:
    http://www.mysupermarket.co.uk/tesco-price-comparison/Dental_Products/Oral_B_Pro_Expert_Cross_Action_Medium_35_Toothbrush.html

    So that's a £6 toothbrush for £1.50 (with MOC), and helping you reach those CS. Enjoy!

    Cushelle 9-pack down to from £4.85 to £3.75 so now could be the time to use those MOC from the T magazine, especially if you also have the MOC from the cushelle website. If you use both, it works out 25p a roll.
