    Well I finally made it to work after the bus trip from hell

    The driver didnt stop letting people on. Result- about 40 people al stood up from the front of the bus to the back of the bus. Some stupid bint "having words" with me because I was sat on an aisle seat leaving the seat next to me free. She soon got put her in her place with a few choice words..I sit on the aisle seat because I get off the bus before most of the other passengers so I dont have to get anyone to move so I can get off.


    In the end, I was shaking, getting palpitations and having a proper head-fit in my head so I had to get off 5 stops sooner than I should have done.


    And now I have to work :mad: :rotfl:

    Good morning everyone :)
    Double points weekend this w/end in Sainbob if anyone's into that.

    Double Value Exchange event where you double up your points for vouchers against certain departments is coming up on 23 April to mid May.

    Also the t's and c's have changed for alcohol, acc to the small print in an email just received:

    Double points offer available from 0.00am 4 April - 11.59pm 6 April 2014 in Sainsbury's stores and Sainsbury's online.

    The following products are not included in the double points offer; prescription medicine, infant formula, tobacco and related products, gift vouchers, gift cards, BT phone cards, e-topup, saving stamps, postage stamps, National Lottery products, car park tickets, vending machine purchases and points collected from recycling used carrier bags. Spirits and liqueurs are not included in the double points offer from 6 April 2014.

    Double points offer available on online grocery orders delivered on 4, 5 & 6 April 2014 only.

    Double points offer available on online orders purchased at sainsburys.co.uk in Home & Garden, Appliances, Technology, Toys & Nursery, Entertainment, Sport & Leisure or Sale sections on 4, 5 & 6 April 2014 only.

    Due to the introduction of new government legislation from 6 April 2014, no retailer will be able to sell alcohol below the rate of the duty price plus VAT. Although it has never been our trading policy to do this, we have introduced some new measures to ensure that we comply fully with the law.

    From this date, spirits and liqueurs will no longer be included in customer promotions and coupons in the same way that baby formula, petrol, stamps, cigarettes and other excluded items are not. Also customers will no longer earn Nectar points when purchasing spirits and liqueurs and, subsequently, any spend on these items will not contribute to the required spend to participate in marketing promotions and coupons.

    The Nectar Double Up promotion the following terms and conditions apply. Customers may exchange their saved Nectar points for a Nectar Double Up voucher at participating stores from 00.00am 23 April – 11.59pm 13 May 2014 up to a maximum limit of 4,000 Nectar points per participating category. The promotion is not available Online, in Sainsbury's Locals or in Petrol Stations. For the full terms and conditions click here

    I think this will be on hold until proven mate, but worse still is if spirits are excluded from apg for the same government reason :eek:

    I don't understand and this is the first I've heard of this! I really hope they don't stop us getting APGs on alcohol. A huge percentage of my APG comes from alcohol I buy for other people so this would affect me a lot if they were to stop it :(

    I got 43 in the mental age test :eek: :eek::eek: That is my age but how did it know??? I don't dislike baseball caps but couldn't choose the party stilettos due to my arthritis :o I am now officially an old fart! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Happy shopping 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.

    If you were a horse, what would your name be?
    Your Result: Tucker

    89%

    Bt7uUdncqxFrhDN6.jpgYour horse name is Tucker! You don't like confrontations and you do your best to stay away from anyone who might push you around. You are very gentle and sweet, but if your afraid every body better get out of your way! You have one or two really close friends, but when you aren't with them you enjoy hanging by yourself. You are very caring, but sometimes you let your fear get the best of you!
