    I haven't done any comparison shops for ages but needing some chocs for pressies I decided to get some tubs to compare with M's. All good apart from using some Ben & J ice cream! Choc fudge compared as it should but Minter W & Joy to the S didn't compare at all but worst of all Core Karamel S compared as A =£3 & M=£4.99. Thought I'd share to warn others.

    I would not dare 2011… OMG

    But could I throw it away…nah!

    What could be wrong with it?
    It may not taste the best, and I'd cook it thoroughly, but would it be off??
    I just thought stuff deteriorates in the freezer.

    I've been to tesco and had my car cleaned out. I've told dd1 that she's going to have to work hard to pay me back the £35!!!! I was the only numpty having my car washed in The rain!

    She's been ok. Snuggled up in her onesie watching Simpsons on TV. I'm just going to go in the shower and then tuck both dd's into bed for the night.

    I've been so focused on them I haven't got anything for dinner.

    Toast for me then !

    I have done many cashback mobile deals before without incident then was stung recently when P4U went under :o.

    I am not put off though and am back in the game with this offer from a few weeks ago - I am keeping it as a back up sim (will sell the phone!) as it works out better than free. e2s/Mobiles are part of CPW so are relatively safer than some of the smaller providers, but there is always a small risk - they also have gone through phases of being unreliable with cashback but at the moment seem to be okay. The deals work if you do your research and make sure that you follow the T&Cs (including submitting the correct bill/info at the correct time) - make sure you put the claim dates in your diary to remind you as you are generally claiming 5 times over 2 years.

    Also worth reading Mobile Junkie's guide to redemption cashback as he has really helped many people understand it https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/558661

    Obviously no one thought a company the size of P4U could go under as they were one of the most reliable but there is always a slight element of risk even with CPW - so don't take this on if you cannot afford if it they don't pay out.

    Talkmobile is on Vodafone network.

    I did that deal from a few weeks ago and the £27.27 from TCB is already sitting in my Amazon account :j

    good afternoon all hope everyone is well,
    had a bad morning, heard the ducks going mad outside and noisy crows and thought the crows were mobbing ducks for food, went out and found what I thought was a buzzard on one of my ducks shouted to scare it of but it flow at me, I realized it was a hawk and had jesses on, managed to scare it of but poor Elvis, our favourite duck was dead:(:( the hawk sat 6ft away from me , scared me to bits, :o:o
    phoned oh he offered to come home but i put duck in box in greenhouse to bury later and caught the rest of the ducks and put them in the polytunnel, oh has told me not to leave the house until he gets home ;)

    Sorry for you to have lost Elvis
