    Im going now :p I doubt very much if he knows where or what we have in the way of old mobiles, it's not something he concerns himself with. I think it's because we have a hands off policy in here. No one touches anyone else's phone........it used to cause way too much squabbling with the kids. So you only concern yourself with your own business :D

    I check DS2 phone when he's in bed, for safety reasons ;) if he ever catches me, I'll get it:eek:

    I have never felt the urge to check my OHs phones - mind you his text are 99.9% to do with work and I would instantly fall into a coma at the tedium of it all :rotfl:
    I did have OH on my FB list - this is a very very select band, a few family and some of my comping friends.
    Then OHs mates from work set up a works FB page so they can now discuss endless tedious work issues 24 hours a day whenever and wherever they are in the world - and they do.
    I know its separate from my FB but even so I could not take the chance so I unfriended my OH - it was months before he noticed :rotfl:

    I've been calling it the 3Ms :j

    what did you get in your test shop?

    I wanted to check the wine but there was only one lonely one on the shelf left in my store so:hello: to who ever cleared it out

    I just got Grants whiskey and comfort and used a coupon we got with the card
    4 COMFORT PURE 3.25 13.00 8.00 5.00 5000 4000
    2 Grants Whisky 70cl 17.49 34.98 26.00 8.98 8980 6000
    1 coupon 250

    47.9834.00 13.98 1398010250
    Matched capped at 10,000 so got 20250 points

    47.98 spent - 20.25= 27.73
    Comfort cost 1.00 each
    Whisky cost 10.00 each
    My whisky cost a bit more because I went over the capped which I am not worried about, I just wanted to test the system to see what would happen

    You are one step ahead of me. My thoughts hadn't got as far as rinsing and repeating yet! :rotfl::rotfl:
    Well we'll know soon because Im off to find out.

    Rinse and repeat does have an element of danger though esp if you just have the one Asda - before long some Till Hag will notice that your last shop that produced a vast APG (anything over a fiver) you are now repeating
    Really you need a couple of near perfect full value glitch shops eg the oil elixir/HS/spray plus anoher similar so you can swap

    I can honestly say I never have either. It wasn't us but the kids that were the problem. Nosing at each others texts and FB when they were a bit younger. It caused no end of squabbling so I introduced the hands off policy :D

    Ive only heard 2 people say that they have been getting their 3ms £5 vouchers from the till spit machine - I thought Morrison HQ said it was a national problem?

    do we have to start a list of people with a back log of £5 voucher and still getting nothing from the till spit machines?

    Ill start
