    I am over the worst I think, someone had left a bag of boiled mint sweets on the kitchen table after going to the cinema last night and I popped one in without thinking. :o

    35 calories in one sweet. :eek:

    Have just eaten grapes so far the rest of the day and going to have eggs for my main meal in a bit. :)

    I think it's harder because of overindulging so much over xmas. ;)

    That's not as bad as the theft of 200 calories by a teeny titchy piece of cake :mad:

    Not long now, keep it up :T

    The scampster and I both live in Bristol. Although we both live on opposite sides of the city, there are connections around and about, and he often does (or is that still did?) a car boot up the road from me

    I'm happy to do what I can, where I can and when I can :)

    With online receipts showing orders placed in your name ;)

    Presumably you have to keep receipts for your business...?

    On the plus side, it's not what is paid for items that counts. Its the value.

    On the down side, all of the items in the household would be joint assets regardless of who actually purchased or paid for them :( that stinks sometimes but that's how it is.

    There's only 2 ways for Scamps to recover his losses that I can see. He can either thrash it out during the divorce proceedings or he can take civil action to recover his losses.

    Scamps, you need to write a list now whilst it's fresh in your mind. Items and approximate value, it's surprising what you'll forget later. You also need bank statements and confirmation from the bank that your wife made the withdrawals(s) from your savings account. There's no reason why you shouldn't be able to get your share when the divorce is settled. No property and no dependant children ( Im assuming?) makes it very straightforward.

    I know that's not much good to you right now :(

    Love it! :rotfl:

    Still, best to rise above I guess or it'd just get even worse in the long run.

    so on the screen where you scan items, scan the gr coupon then the store coupon THEN hit finish and pay
