    sorry if I sound a little outspoken? I prefer long term gain over short term greed :(
    I just think that tapping the source of our gains so heavily isn't a very good idea. you can make more over a long time by doing little bits than you ever will by hammering it until you get stopped......and everyone else does as well

    Take it you don't approve of killing the golden goose :A

    You are spot on and if people don't like it that is their problem.

    Well done for speaking up.

    Cash back, before you say anything, google anger management :cool:
    Back to square one, no apg, no comment.

    no I don't and the APG is a golden goose! and we are killing it :(

    But I won't stop people doing that and neither will you.......if we keep posting £50+ APGs on here though, 10 ways will pick it up.....and that WILL kill it

    Very fair points FC, its happened before with the DTD and APGs.
    However I cant see many people having the cash to risk £80 on a handwash shop. I certainly couldn't.
    I was however trying it earlier as I couldn't get it to work out and thought it was only multiples of 10 that worked, till someone pointed out what was happening.
    I think most people will be sensible and try a few in a shop with fillers, and repeat.
    Love your Mum, you'll never get another one when she's gone.

    Thanks TM. I do genuinely think my Mum would like either suggestion (she does like a drop of wine) but once the wine is gone, you're stuck with a silly bag that you'd never use as a bag. At least the things I've bought she can keep (aside from the biccies). I think it's my sis who actually wants the wine handbag to be honest :rotfl:

    Oh dear. The guy over the road is currently 'welcoming' a load of unseen people into his house. Having a good natter again.

    I would be inclined to suggest to your sister that you buy your Mum separate presents in future if she feels left out of it...

    This would result in win/win/win all round as, win for you because your present ideas sound great and even if you pay the whole amount for your MSE present, that is still less than half of what your sister wants to you to buy; win for your sister as she gets to be totally involved and choose exactly what she wants to give; definite win for your mum because she gets double the presents! :D:D
