    Good morning :)

    I fell asleep on the sofa last night :o woke up and went to bed, and was rudely awakened by DS2 at sometime around 6am this morning :( Fun.....
    At least all my housework and other chores for the day are done :D

    Hope everyone has a good day whatever they are doing.

    And you left me alone with DM and his 'anything goes' glass. :eek: :rotfl:

    Just picked ours up DW fancied one last year but not at £100 so Dry January is paying for it :coffee:
    Joining you TM :D no hangovers here not sure if that is not drinking enough or too much :rotfl:

    Decided having a drink is just habit as in
    Its x oclock
    its x day
    its been a good/bad day etc etc
    DM is posting I need one to get through it
    I suggested to my DH that we cut out alcohol until we go to Sri Lanka on 26 jan - he didn't take that idea very well ! Gist of it was 'do what you ****** well like but leave me out of it !'

    Found my first Tesco xmas mag yesterday.... how useful :rotfl:

    it was useful.

    yesterday
    I got fed up with my local store not having 3v cards (and run out of mags :o), so I drove 17m e/w to my next store. they had both. I purchased 20 x 3v cards using 20 coupons from the mags.

    that gave me 3500 points + another 500 points for buying with my cc+

    so that's £120 towards my next p&o cruise.

    + a bonus of 20p off a litre of fuel next time I fill up
    so even though it was the last day, its never too late for an "elite"

    Trying to get my head around this. You say "100% legit comparison!" so couldn't I just buy them in Waitrose at 75p? Trying to see where the benefit is in getting them at Asda when you have to buy additional items up to total of 8. :o

    your right, and you get a free paper (£5 spend) and coffee. but wheres the fun :p

    also assuming your waities have them.

    What are you spending them on though Zippy, apart from the pub? (or is that all :D :beer: Wish my pub sold gift vouchers)

    I would get response something along the lines of that too. :eek:

    I will just be happy if Mr TS cuts it back down to 2 nights a week again like he did before xmas. :o

    I would be embarrassed to tell how much ale he has consumed over the festive season. :o
