Came on here to say that I have just discovered that if you have a gmail address, you can add or remove a . (dot/full stop) before the @ without it making any difference at all to the delivery. May be useful next time there are free soup vouchers!

Just adding to this, you can also switch between googlemail and gmail domains too.

i.e.

cheese@gmail.com
cheese@googlemail.com
[email]c....h...e..e...s..e@gmail.com[/email]
[email]che.......ese@googlemail.com[/email]

will all land in the same inbox

Thanks Chris. I had a lot of the Uncle Bens when the coupon was available some time back. Wouldn't pay the £1+ but shall try the asda 240g one out. Wonder what it tastes like? Looks okay and 30p is cheap enough

Amy...I've just been reading back and you were asking yesterday about carpet cleaning....


Do you need to clean because you are moving from a rental property or because you are just moving and want to leave them clean for the next owner?
Reason I ask is because if its rental,then please check your rental agreement,some will ask for professional cleaning and some will ask for cleaning to a professional standard...
if your agreement says professional cleaning you may be asked to supply a receipt to prove this has been done....which may tie you into using a company to clean them....typically this will be between £100-£200....Ive just had to have a set of carpets done that way..hall,stairs landing 2 beds and 2 reception rooms...£160


If your agreement is "to professional standard" then you can indeed hire something like a rug doctor but again keep the reciept as proof if needed....


When you come to clean the carpets make sure you vacuum them really well,most dirt is surface and a good vacuum or even a brush with quite hard bristles can loosen most of the dirt making it easier to vaccum up.
Staining is a little different but unless the stain is embedded it usually will come out with the use of something like a rug doctor.
As others have said...if you are looking to buy something then a vax is a very good option.

Oh it's even worse than that, we're having to clean the new rental we are moving into!

I viewed the place early December and asked to rent it the same day, and the agency have dragged things on so long that they only offered me the keys the weekend before last. So I say to the agency guy lets meet at the property and then I'll come to the office and get keys etc.

The property needs cleaning, redecorating in all the high traffic areas, the carpets need cleaning and LOADS of furniture needs removing.

So they say they'll ask the LL to get that done out of the previous tenants deposit but they are still stringing me along saying they are waiting for approval on the quotes.

But as I'm a matter of weeks away from giving birth and I have my other children to think of, I'm going to have to take the keys to the house as it is and get my OH to do the work required - I can't wait for the agency to pull their finger out/get approval because I can't risk giving birth before moving

My 2 boys have sleep overs quite often, one is 15 and the other 12, probably started about 8 years old.

I would rather their friends come to me, so I can keep an eye on them.

The other week, my ds2 asked if a friend could come to wales with us for the weekend, bearing in mind I dont know his friend or his parents, I said I would have to speak to his parents first.

Well ds2 came home on the friday night with his friend and his bags for the weekend, with a note from the friends dad, to say yes his son could come to wales :eek: that was it no phonecall to see who I am, know telephone no to contact him, some very strange people :eek: and now we cant get rid of him, he is here most weekends :eek::mad:

I wouldn't be happy with that!
Dd1 doesn't go to the local school which all our neighbours go to. In the summer they all seem to end up at my door for ice lollies :eek:

Well I answered my own question and yours too Savvy. Glade is still £1.25 in store and they subbed with the floral ltd edition one which smells AMAZING! And the unexpected bonus was that it compared to M at £2, so looks like it has finally picked up the correct price. I didn't even want the APG, just wanted the candles lol.

10 x Glade Candle Blackberry Frost Limited Edition £50.00 £20.00

wow, great results on your candles :T

I'm pretty sure someone mentioned that they're RTC in store? Not too sure though.

I've not taken much notice about the toothbrushes but I assumed they were £35, rtc to £17.50 in store. You'd get an APG of £17.50 + 10%, but if you refuse at CC//HD, then you'd get your refund as well. I think....:p

I'm more interested in almost free persil

I am not buying toothbrushes, but could someone explain to me how it works. As far as I can see they are £35 on MSM and £35 in store and comparing at £17.50 which would mean they cost you £17.50 +10%. But that can't be right as people are making money on them. Thank You.

Maybe you should read back a day or two.
