    I have only ordered two sets as this is more than enough for us. one for me one for my friend next door

    As I picked up a bargain from Germany for Christmas dinner a 70 piece24ct gold plated set worth £1750 for £86 delivered :D

    OMG can I come to your house to eat with these!

    I am started to gather items for when we move into the house when it is built (there is no rush as it will be years!) I now have enough towels, mixing bowls, wooden spoons and cutlery! Everything else to get!

    Morning all :wave:
    Good morning everyone.

    If anyone is still after the Viners cutlery it is still working this morning. Have not tried checking out though, not impressed at the comments about rust etc, and we really do not need more cutlery (unless someone finds a quality set worth £300 or so for £5 :D)


    She took away my father, and enjoyed it. She destroyed her kids' relationships and would have destroyed mine and those of my brothers if we had lived near them (yes my brothers have similar stories).

    Some people are so unhappy they cannot bear to see other people happy.

    Sorry about the essay folks :)

    You're right Enterprise, misery loves company unfortunately :(

    Completely different scenario but one of my best friends (until 12 years ago) was like this, she revelled in mine and our other friends bad times. We stopped being friends not because of this (she did something completely despicable), but it wasn't until afterwards that I could see what she had been like. We were so close so I was blinded by it and always defended her etc

    Don't know what I'm trying to say really, I'm just wittering on :o


    Anyway in other news....

    Just had £240 Amazon vouchers delivered from the Mumsnet/More Than competition I won on 31st Dec :j:j:j

    I agree with this. It really doesn't make any sense for anyone to take the fuel keys. Taking the stash was odd. I wonder if they have suddenly hit hard times and are in desperate need for money. Even if they are greedy people and want your wife to grab anything worth something, taking the fuel keys doesn't make sense.

    Can you check she hasn't stopped direct debits from your joint account? I'm thinking about the council tax etc - that you should be applying for single person discount for BTW.


    There is something very queer going on with this woman and her parents - their behaviour is just not normal ! Whatever Scamps may have done or not done, (and I'm not for one minute suggesting that he has done anything except behave as one half of a happily married couple) there is just no justification for their actions - none of it is morally right (some seems possibly illegal bearing in mind they have taken Scamps personal property) and I just can't fathom what can possibly be driving them.

    Scamps could have been the worst Husband in the world and still no normal person would have done what she's done - and its worrying that there might be other spiteful, devious ploys that she's got going to further cause trouble for Scamps. He needs to double check any financial or property matters that she might possibly have access to just to make sure there are no other nasty shocks instore.

    The woman needs psychiatric help .

    I have spent some time today organising a date with my husband. I know that sounds daft but we never go out properly unless it's a function.

    So have ordered a new dress. Picked up bottle of fizzy chardonnay. Going to book local Indian and a taxi. None of which is discounted or vouchered !!! (Although could get cheap taxi from work I guess. )

    So Friday night glad rags on and away out !

    Thanks for new thread Savvy x

    I love date night :j
    Have a fab night bananababe x

    Evening all,

    Have discovered a little H&M glitch. In the past it has been possible to combine the 2 codes (£5 off and free delivery - see codes thread - https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/comment/64289797#Comment_64289797 , free del thread is advertised on h&m site) to get things very cheap, and this is working again. In the past, you needed to be a double click master to get this to work (and this still does work), however, I have found another, more legit way.

    A few rules, firstly, the basket needs to be a minimum of £6 cost of the items you want. That is the minimum spend for the 2 offers to kick in. £5.99 wont work, tried it.

    Secondly, you need to add this in Large to your basket-

    http://www.hm.com/gb/product/22926?article=22926-B&variant=006

    So add the jacket and then £6 of stuff you want (3 packs of knickers for £4+ indiviual knickers for £2 in the sale, tea towels etc.) Full price items tend to end in 99p, so unless it is £6.99 you need an extra item. Things like face masks - 99p and cotton buds £1.50 are handy extra items if you need to bump it up a little.

    Go through to checkout and add your 2 codes in (£5 off and Free Delivery), and you will notice that the website gets confused, and that your order value is too low, BUT the item it cannot deliver is the £24.99 Jacket (may work with other items, this was the first I found). So it removes that item from your basket and only asks you to pay £1 (plus balance over £6, £1 is the smallest charge).

    So you can get underwear, makeup, loads of sale items delivered for less than £2.

    You can only use the codes once per account (well till that order has been processed) but you can set up more than one account per household (make sure different names, otherwise their computer gets confused, combines accounts and you get asked to email in ID to them before they dispatch items). IF you set up an new account with H&M be VERY VERY careful when you get to the checkout screen as the default payment option is to bill you for the order, not to charge a card. I believe this is a credit account, could incurr searches on credit file etc. etc.

    BUT apart from that, loads of cheap stuff!

    You can also make a larger order and then edit the order in the "pending"section on the website, but not sure how reliable that is to get the items delivered.

    Hope not to complicated.

    HTH

    Thank you lawrie, I've been wanting some new cushion covers (do you know how hard it is to find mustard yellow cushion covers :eek:) but I've refused to pay full price. 2 orders done cost :j £5.98 for 4 covers

    Off to meet some friends at soft play in a bit so you'll have to shout really loud if there's a glitch :D Catch you later :wave:

    Fab picture logie
    Sometimes the best bit of a present is the box it comes in. :rotfl: I've lost count of the number of boxes we have turned into cars. Full paint jobs, number plates stencilled on, steering wheels made from paper plates etc.
    good times :D
