    Does anyone else do battle of the thermostats in their house. Just noticed Mr TS has turned down the thermostatic valve on the radiator next to where I sit yet again. :mad:

    Yes we have the same in our house, OH walks past it and turns it down, I walk past and turn it up :rotfl::rotfl:

    They also overcharged me (£3.98 SEL) on the maple syrup - they did the same thing on Saturday and they forgot to remove the wrong SEL so they gave me another gift card.

    Honestly this thread today :(

    I take it as a good sign that no one has been banned from Asda. In the Tesco days, there were a number of people who posted to say that Tesco had banned them.
