    I am glad you saw my message fair claire. Thank you also to everyone else for the welcome. It took me about an hour to set the account up and find out how to post my message. After a better look around I now think I understand how the different sections work. I was coming accross things randomly but wasn't following the same section all the time and then when I saw things I had to search to find them again.

    My wife knows now that Im not mad after seeing my vouchers and she wants more of the Tassimo pods. Would it be ok for me to use the vouchers I got today to buy more? Can I use them to buy the same things again? And can I use them both at once?

    Sorry for the questions. I'm happy to search for the answers if someone can give me a clue where to look. I'm actually feeling very pleased with these vouchers and I'm keen to do another shop without any help this time! Thank you

    you can use the vouchers tomorrow and on the same things if you want and yes you can use more than 1 at once. one thing we do mostly try to do is keep the vouchers under £10 as it keeps you below the stores radar..

    I missed out on the M&S dine in this time :(

    Went this morning, but they only had a small selection of the deal stuff left, no chickens (I really wanted to try the chicken).
    They had ross chickens on the ordinary shelf, but the SA said they wouldn't work through the till.

    That will teach me to leave it til the last day.. will have to go within the first couple of days next time.

    So, my GR voucher will have to do for next time. Anyone know how often the dine in deal comes around?

    Is it every 2 - 3 weeks?

    :o

    You will start to feel better by tomorrow morning. This is from experience, I had pneumonia last year and I will never forget how tired and awful I felt, except I had a horrible taste in my mouth too so couldn't eat! I ended up on two different double size antibiotics and had to take a whole day's dose in about 4 hours. Hope you are starting to feel better when you wake up, recovery is pretty quick after that :)



    Is this from just clicking on the platinum on the activation email please? :D
    Yup :D

    Yes, you can use the vouchers straight away and buy the same. HTH. :)

    Yes you can use the vouchers to buy more pods and yes you can use them both on the same shop if you like. Reading the first page of the thread is a good idea. It'll give you an overview of the different shops etc. You can find it here

    I'm glad your wife believes you now :D it's not an easy thing to explain to someone. Don't be afraid to ask questions, there's usually someone around to answer. Glad you didn't go back to lurking

    Big hugs to you ILTS, unfortunately their world becomes a lot smaller than ours, they just don't realise how hard hitting their words can be. :(

    It's sad that really there is nothing we can do to help these anxious feelings, their sense of reality starts to go and they just don't realise exactly how much they are relying on us and the time we are spending with them and being away from our own homes to care for them.

    My mum always used to say to health professionals "Oh my daughter will do that." without any consultation with me. :eek: But there were moments when the realisation did hit how much I was doing/giving up and they made up for any doubts I had whether what I was doing was appreciated.

    Don't take it to heart hun, I am sure your nan just needed to vent her feelings as we all do from time to time and you were there for her. :A

    I understand all this,like I said sometimes I just break,I think I'm tired as well which doesn't help.
    I work 30 hours a week plus look after nan on my own plus trying to keep my home and family going and I think it's all starting to get a bit much for me and has been for a while :o
