Good luck
thanks hun. cant get any response at all on the number I was given - it just rang out, so I am now on hold to cs again and they are trying to put me through to account services - what a nightmare - will keep you posted! xx0 -
this is a good question - do you know for some reason I've never used Wowcher - I don't know why but I feel a bit suss about it although its probably the same as the others, just smaller.
let me know how you go on - I keep thinking there must be an easy one to get just to try the system out.
where we live we fall between Liverpool, Chester Manchester and Birmingham so I have to check all four to see what deals are new - deal zippy has all of the deals - I also check out north wales, Edingburgh York, west Yorkshire and Southampton to plan midweek and weekend breaks
Sometimes you see fab deals like 2 nights for £78 bed and breakfast but then when you check the locations its about 20 miles from no where so your only choice is to also eat in the pub or hotel which also turns out to be a gastro pub so your evening meals cost more than the b and b[/QUOTE
Am on my way out but just to let you know I've used wowcher a few times with no probs whatsoever.0 -

I'm just thinking - several different things actually, but one of them is about how I often write ":eek:" after a price that I think is too expensive (or, maybe, way too expensive rather than merely too expensive - just to split hairs yet again;)). It may come across as if I am screaming, but in fact, it's more of an "ah" or a tut-tut or minor open-mouth 'shock' reaction (or feigned pretend at such a reaction), so that's what it really is;). It's just there to indicate a price I think is quite too high and that's just what it means alright:D.0

I think whether something is expensive or not is possibly a personal view geared towards your own expectations...I guess what one person feels expensive the next might not...
I can only comment on the fact that whilst we were out last night we decided to "eat out"...no deals on and no vouchers to hand we headed for a chain place where once seated and in possession of the menu I did feel the need to get up and leave before ordering...
4 burgers with varying toppings and fries...with 4 diet pepsi's non refillable...would have come in at over £60....
I'm sure other in the restaurant were enjoying their meal...but I felt a tad uncomfortable about how much we were going to spend and what we were receiving for it...
I'm not against paying for something of quality or indeed if it's a treat but a quick meal after the cinema wasn't in my mind supposed to attract that price
We finally ate somewhere else....frugal October...£41.82 of £40 food shopping spend for the 2 of us!

OK....so I went to A to test the donuts....T have them on offer at 57p and SFSB last night thought they may compare to the CBY ones in A...
They used to compare in old APG days but I can confirm that they dont anymore.
T on their pp are picking up the higher price of the standard cream donuts in A so comparing 57p to £1.20.... I did this earlier in the week but buying them the other way round in A and hoping they compare to the same 57p ones in T gives a N'A result....
so basically I had hoped that the £1.20 donuts compared in A to T but they didnt and the CBY ones that are expensive (but very nice)with added custard don't eitherfrugal October...£41.82 of £40 food shopping spend for the 2 of us!
