    Having a mental block here does the 25% usually show if you buy 6 of the same wine. :o

    It won't work if you buy 5 mhoc as the offer in As is 2 for £10 so the yellowtail needs to be bought in 2s.

    Thinking out loud I am sure I bought 6 prosecco in July and got a PP from the full price. FC can you remember? :eek:

    I think my max price has gone out the window after reading that the 25% off does not work any more if it takes a wine to below the minimum pricing thingy.

    It's definitely getting harder to get good deals on wine, but the recent RTCs at As for £3 were good and YourFavWines occasionally have glitches.
    Got about 55? bottles of various in stock to keep me going so I'm not desparate yet, but may reappraise in future or spend more time scouring SELS in T getting free stuff on DTDs.

    Oh, for the days of £1.50 - £2 bottles from T with double discounts coming off :(

    just picked this up from the show room today. for dw's birthday

    o8s5rl.png

    well very similar ours has got a black trim across the centre of the doors.

    this was all karlies88 fault as she got me looking when she kept posting pics of new cars.

    of course it was on a very good deal

    list price for white is about £17,500 I got it for £12,750 less what we got for our trade in.

    it took me years to save the money but this site has helped big time. my dw likes my glitching now. .......

    Interesting - are there any Elite drinkers with space in their wine cellars I wonder?
    It looks like you need 5 yellow tails, a random wine - plus 8 small fillers min - maybe COS/Shopotize things that match prices Asda/tesco - I've been today so OH won't take me again :)

    I thought this was a common thing that Tesco don't include the 25% off on the pp. im really glad it was posted though as I forgot all about it. maybe someone else will confirm if you can get 6 of one type.

    I still have a full wine rack though

  • I thought they did understand, thats why I was so disappointed to find out my manager has gone to the Dr behind my back. The reason for this was because I didn't go to the toilet for an hour and a half when he visited me!!

    Its very difficult when your symptoms/pain/discomfort are invisible, and you appear to look fine to people.

    I'm also wondering if its because I went on holiday - pre-booked and not a secret, and checked with federation it was still ok to go. Basically I was lying around on a cruise ship rather than lying around on the bed at home, but bladder played up a lot whilst away so definitely curtailed things like getting off in port.

    I think some managers are still of the opinion that if you are off work sick, you can't leave the house for any reason whatsoever.

    Anyway, will let Federation do the negotiating on my behalf, but have decided that I will ask for 2 more weeks off sick, then get my GP to sign me back on with restrictions (she has already said she would do this) regardless of what work say. I need something to take my mind off things, and I am just going to go crazy at home.


    Working for a government department and needing to return part time they decided to do an occupational health assessment on me based on my medical records from the Dr. Made for hilarious reading but agreed to part time. It is quite likely they will go through the whole report/cover their 'arris thing with you. My illness was invisible too.
    I understand your struggle it is so hard when no one can see how much of a struggle things are.

    Giovanni experiment was successful.:)

    I froze the mushroom one and cooked it from frozen straight into a pan of boiling water. added a tin of ratatouille provencale (which I bought by mistake as a filler (different pan)) the meal was lovely.

    so I am going to freeze some now. hth

    you may wish to wait until tomorrow to see if im still posting :p

    Sounds lovely I need a syns free sauce to go with mine! Any ideas anyone apart from passata!!
