    Good morning all - I think we all need copious hugs on an hourly basis the way this week, this month and this year is shaping up.

    Well we finally have the empty nest back - there has been at least one of the brood here since December 19th so the house is now feeling very echoey.

    Both lads went off yesterday leaving me with a parting gift of 2 loads of washing. Their bedroom needs doing as well, I was promised it was tidy, it isn't, but its not getting done today by me - I can have the rest of the house straight in the amount of time it would take to do that bedroom :mad:

    In the meantime I have a tiny To Do list and then I can get back to the decluttering and downsizing.

    The fox came again last night and he had stuffed pizza crusts, crammed as many as he could into his gob and ran off :j

    Thank you, it's nice to feel appreciated :o I won't be away as such but may skim and lurk some days when I don't have so much time because I'm job hunting :D

    I do worry though that sometimes I annoy people if I waffle on too much about glitches that are obscure and not that great a saving because I know I annoy people in real life like this, so it's nice to know at least some people want my posts :D I apologise if anyone feels I've done this and also for moaning about my problems too much :o

    I think most of us may feel like this at times, lesson learnt the hard way......from work colleagues having a giggle at your exopense but still expecting loads of goodies for the yearly raffle to family wanting nay demanding crazy stuff for free..........not just shower gel but extending to laptops and phones :eek::eek:
    Possibly one of the reasons I always end up back on this thread, rather like coming back home to people who "understand".
    Take care. Remember leaving a secure job is hard and scary. Speak to your family first before any decisions they know you best. Then go for it and don't look back on any decision. Good luck x

    Before I start please can I ask is it business as usual as per the weekend

    a v w
    sanex plus cucumber
    fox x 2
    tobs

    or is it iffy as its mid week Wednesday and change over day?

    If I go to Asda I can get a foodbank bag together and one for Oxfam so 3 jobs making the 70p parking worthwhile :D:D

    also got to go to Aldi for cashback items so that means freezer tidying to make a space - this leads onto fridge tidying to see if I've got anything for the fox tonight

    You can see how easily I get distracted ....

    Morning all!


    Sorry to hear about your dad VT xx


    I am such a wally, whilst looking for cricfree the other day befopre realising how to get rid of the ads I have clicked something and a company called vidhaze have emptied my credit card this morning. I can't fault m&s, I rang them straight away and they have blocked my card. I'm only worried I have entered something on that site, my card details are stored on my phone through google. I'm hoping I am not liable for the costs, at no point did I authorise anything. so feeling a little bit :(


    Darts was horrid last night, my friend who plays on our team died a couple of days after Christmas and so we played short and lost and the morale was not good. She had been diagnosed with cancer 4 weeks before, they gave her a big dose of chemo, but her heart gave out.


    So today I will be eating enormous amounts of chocolate and ringing up about my boiler again!! if I see F28 on it again it will meet my mate the hammer!!

    I find most RL people glaze over when I talk about glitches - but, hey ho, their shopping bill is higher than mine and if they're happy with that...! :D At least here we all appreciate each other - and sometimes it's the obscure glitch that someone might just be hoping for. :T Never stop posting - about anything you like. It seems there is always someone here who can relate. :)

    Absolutely !!! ;)

    Good morning. Did we know A give you £10 credit if you find out of date products instore? I know I didn't as otherwise I ciukd have made a fair but rather than helpfully telling staff :o.

    Coupon Mama (... participating in Elite activities under a pseudonym?) has pulled together 10 things that people may not know about A ... I am sure we could extend the list if we wanted to (but probably best not to make glitching that explicit ;)).

    Thanks for the link, I once bought cereal that was over a year OOD, I rang CS who just asked me to take back to the store, manager just said thanks :(
    I certainly didn't know about the out of date and smiley face policies
    Wondering if there any any links to those so we can add to the first post
