    I'm having trouble again with the line spacing on my Word documents ! Its coming up at double spacing and I can't remember how to change it back - some kind person on here told me how to fix it ages ago but I've had my computer cleaned up recently and its reverted back to double spacing . I'd appreciate some help again please . I I promise to write down the instructions this time!)

    Hi, sorry to be thick so initial outlay of £31 and an added few pennies, buys you what items ?

    Yes I started off with doing 2 x2 bottles of Hardys and a 51p choc bar so total £31 then each time a few pennies as I dont like it to be zero. Paracetamol are good at 22p

    So, i pop down to Morribobs, buy 2x Hardys and a choc bar/fruit i do this twice, so i part with £31 (ish) now when/how do i get my vouchers? and how much are they going to be for?
    and what do i do next?

    Well I have just been stocking up so just buying one lot of items at a time.

    2 bottles of Hardys Stamp cost £14.50 and get anything for 51p because it needs to be over £15 for it to compare the match points.
    This is £4.99 in Asda or Tesco so you get match points for the difference. In this case 4520. Then you get the more points 2000 each bottle, so 4000 makes a total of 8520. Rinse and repeat once you get your vouchers through.

    Big bottles of Comfort are £3.25 in morrisons, £2 in Asda so 1250 in match points, and have 1000 more points on each one. For example, 6 of these costs £19.50 and gives you 13.500 points all together. I know you will say I am not paying £19.50 for Comfort, but you will be using your vouchers.

    Dettol Power and Fresh is £2.49 in Morrisons but 2 for £2 in Asda so each pair gives you 2980 match points and 500 more points

    Hope this helps


    Thanks for this explanation, Rosy. I'm now getting interested :-) Thanks.

    Bon Voyage DM!

    I just ordered my Morries card. I think what rosy is saying is, she got £20 back from a £31 shop which she then used to get £19.50 of Comfort, then Dettol, etc etc. You'd get diminishing returns obviously but a lot of stuff for just £31 outlay??

    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    putting it like that it seems like a lot of hard work for little gain...

    for example

    in Sada

    4 bottles of wine = £20
    6 bottles of comfort = £12
    2 dettols = £2

    Total £34, so you have only saved £3 but you have had to do numerous shops, run home and print vouchers then go back and forth?

    Or have i not got the gist of this game at all??:o
