    macbooks are great.
    second hand you can get them real cheap.

    Another vote for macs. but only second hand as this is MSE and they charge a brand premium. They work a treat , keep going for ages, are really user-friendly.

    Only downside is when you switch to an upgraded model or Operating System, your old software, (especially the paid for stuff) may sometimes not run on the next OS, and you may have to buy upgraded software as well. They keep that a bit quiet so you may have to search the internet for info.

    You can get shareware that gets around that, more info elsewhere in the main site.

    Afternoon all :)

    Happy birthday lovely dipdap. Going shopping for anything in particular?

    This morning's culinary test was a simple banana smoothie with almond butter. Very tasty it was too. You don't even need to add sweetener to it because all the sweetness comes from banana :)

    Can I just ask if anyone on here- Westie I'm sort of looking at you ;)- uses soya milk or almond milk instead of the regular stuff?

    I'm used to semi-skimmed but I know this stuff would probably be better. What say you?

    I'm not wishing to have an argument here, but I can't help but think your activities are going to end in tears GG - I'm not basing this on anything other than my own personal gut feeling

    The general consensus on here (and I'm not claiming to speak for everyone, or anyone in fact) seems to be that staying under the radar is better practice in order to protect the future of what we do. This seems like a sensible, balanced approach to me, though I appreciate the difference in opinion

    I suppose my first fear would be that I'd be more likely to be ear-marked as a fraudulent person (and I appreciate that I am already running that risk, but I doubt they're going to pay attention to someone who has a few free bottles of shampoo, but someone who has a few free TV's is a different matter).

    The second would be that certain deals like this are cancelled or not rolled out to other stores so that others can take some advantage of it, based on my own activity of getting free stuff from Tosco to the tune of £000's (I assume) - I suppose this is where I am a bit soft. I do tend to think though that this thread is more of a 'help each other out' ethos, rather than a 'get as much as I can and stuff everyone else' ethos...I can't help but think that your activities fall into the latter category

    I'm not being judgemental, it is really interesting to read about what you are doing and I wish you well with it, but I don't think I'll be following suite for the reasons above

    Sorry for the long post

    was it you said you been accepted for markies account yesterday ?

    OH got accepted week past thursday(ten days ago or so) but the paperwork they said would appear hasnt.

    It was the day they released the mse £125 link and i used that. so maybe busy ?

    TIA

    I applied on Tuesday night, had to call them on Wednesday, got an email to say I'd been accepted on Thursday and the letters that I need to sign and send back arrived yesterday. So its been pretty quick so far for me. Hope it turns up soon for you.
