    :(

    Bitterly cold night last night so we made a cosy bed for the neighbour's cat that is out 24/7 & so is the neighbour :mad:
    I can't bear to know she is out there in this cold weather so ...

    Trouble is now that we have made this bed she hasn't left it

    To me she is Bindi

    This is so sweet. Do you feed it as well - good to put a bit of dry food out for him/her and some water
    At least you will be mice free in your shed.

    Thank you Izzey, I will unplug it in the future, I knew I had to when doing a proper charge, but thought when I was leaving the charger on trickle over the winter, I was okay to leave it connected.

    Just busy ordering from Thomson & Morgan, and realised I should use CC points, but have none left. Anyone know when the next set will get sent out please?



    The last date for collecting this quarter is 25th January, so realistically probably about a week after that.

    DH pinches the duvet, and we have THREE cats. So I'm on severely restricted space, and cold. No wonder I wake up at 3am most days
    Stick a few heavy things inside the edge of the duvet cover on your side, weigh it down too much for DH to drag it over to his side:)
    Maybe use a few chocolate bars as weights, then you've got some midnight snacks to hand, too:T

    This is good :D

    Our T had Debbie & Andrews sausages, posh ones made in Harrogate reduced to £1 - under the grill they shrunk down a lot and a huge amount of fat came out of them so OH had to pour this off - but they did taste very lovely :D

    So pleased you feel :j:j QoC. You are an:A.

    Sounds like you gave scamps a much needed boost:T

    My disappointment of the day was the SA in T not accepting my £7 wys £50 as I had included a £20 giftcards.

    My shopping came to over £40:eek: I've never paid that much for a shop in yonks.

    Felix cat food compared £4.88 in T to 2 for £6 in S so I bought 4 and some Activia 8 packs to get a £10 PP

    As I was a woman scorned I went and used my £7 wys on a pair of skull candy head phones which went through at £80 even thought the SEL was £69.
    I took a photo of the SEL and waited for customer service to check it out. She came back and said that the price was right at £80. I asked her to walk back with me where a man from the electrical dept was switching the prices. I commented that that was a bit naughty. Got DD of £22.

    If only I'd got my £7 off wys:). I would have been on my way home:)

    I think I would have said something stronger than a bit naughty.

    Good Evening everyone.

    I am an idiot :o - I did three targeted shops yesterday for normal groceries/Shopitize ... And now realise I had planned 4 when I was walking around with the fourth having all the cheaper in A items :mad:. Never shop at a busy time, too many people in the queue and I knew I should have knicked another divider from the next till.

    I can however confirm Nescaf! Gold Blend 300g refills are being picked up £7 v T £4.42 ... And despite Pineapples coming up non compare, they are on apg 75p v £1 T :mad:
