    Thanks for this. Never even noticed that option within MSM so will give it a go in future.

    No worries, its invaluable once you start using it. You can then take a screenshot on most phones and you can then be sure (in theory) you are ordering the correct product later.;)

    Good afternoon:wave:

    Devon can breath a sigh of relief, the monkeys are safely back in Yorkshire:rotfl:

    Gosh it was a long, long drive:(

    Hope everyone is well and has cupboards full to bursting point:)

    Mine are pretty empty apart from a few biscuits:)

    Just about to do an @ h/d for tomorrow and wondered if there had been any exciting new glitches in the last week..that may still be working.... I did find something about twirl bites but couldn't find the original post so not sure what the glitch is ....

    Got my 2 meal deals for a fiver using GR and a valued opinions voucher. Got the last 2 chickens over £8

    Called at S to collect Higgidy quiches and old news but managed to get 2 Innocent veg pots using one voucher through SS. They are on BOGOF.
    Resisted doing a £30 shop to use up a wys voucher for £3 in S. Continued efforts this week to keep eating out of the cupboards and freezers:)

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker I've been Money Tipped!
    morning :wave:
    after hubby's car breaking & having to scrap it we thought we were sorted as he is going to get another car tomorrow & then yesterday my car broke down :( got to say the AA were really good they sent a AA man within 1/2 hr even though there was a 2 hr wait when we phoned because we had our 2 autistic boys with us & then sorted a hire car for us as we would have had to wait at least another 3 hrs for a lorry big enough to take us all home :)
    really hope VW garage can fix my car! typical that hubby was driving my car too when it broke down :eek: i think he's jinxed :eek::rotfl:

    Fingers crossed they can sort your car out for you. Awful when you breakdown with the kiddies with you.

    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.

    thanks hun :) i just have the agonising wait for the VW garage to open tomorrow & to diagnose my car :eek: it was hardwork with the boys when we were waiting for the aa & when he was checking it over & loading the car up but they were angels for the rest of the day so can't complain :)
