    So. Dare I enter a receipt into the APG? (I've just found another womble at the bottom of my shopping bag from [Strike]tonight[/Strike], oops from yesterday:rotfl:, that I had forgotten(:eek:) about.)

    Here we are... they (just about) got 8 diff. items (actually nine - hey, they're doing better (or worse:D) than me) - and...

    A penny!!:rotfl::rotfl: First offer of a potential voucher of the month:rotfl: (or last one of the same month over the limit if it's not "clicked over" yet). But hang on - I could have got a lot with that penny had it been for a different store:rotfl::rotfl:.

    6 items (5 different) on your bill qualify for comparisonASDALogoWhite.gif Morrisons

    1 x ASDA Chosen by Kids Easy Peasy Peelers (500g)£1.00N/A
    Comparison total (compared products only)£4.60£5.11

    I've actually never had a return of 1p before:rotfl:. And did they really need those crisps?:rotfl::mad::mad:
    "Great news! [A] are cheapest. However, [A] are not 10% cheaper than [etc.] on your comparable grocery shopping. As such you are entitled to a voucher for £0.01.

    Gawd, haven't those potatoes risen in price a lot? I remember when they were 70p or even 60p before. Obviously the round-pound thing now:rotfl::D. Nothing I'd buy there...next!!:):D

    Right, time I wasn't here, meds kicked in, doubled up zopiclone tonight so I will sleep.


    :eek: OMG Be very careful doing this.
    In hospital 2 Zopiclone is considered dangerous.

    Came back down for a cuppa n quick read. Thought I'd better clarify the situation. My doc reduced my dose to half what I was on but now and then I take 2 if I know I need to get to sleep.
    Sorry if I caused alarm, I am very responsible as far as all my meds go. :D

    Good night again see you next weekend x
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.
