    I had a HD booked for 5.8 but I had to go out and missed it. Driver rang later and said he would come back but it was late so I said ok I will reschedule for next day. However just got my bank statement and I used £29.00 of evouchers on the order of 5.8 but they then cancelled that order and did a new order for next day and took full amount.
    I called CS last night and they said that as I had used them that was that. Is this right??

    The evouchers have to be in date for the date you get the order delivered to you. If you haven't used the vouchers they should be re-credited.

    Good afternoon. Had a good day so far. Been and spent all of my walkers mocs. £25 shopping for 70p which is how I like it. As I walked through the shoppping center I was handled a leaflet that if you spend £40 in there during August you get booklet of vouchers for free swim, gym day, game of bowling and trip to bingo. Managed to womble a receipt in sainsburys so added with mine have 1 so far. Just checked my wombles from last week and can easily get 10. Only valid certain days and times but free swims for us next week and DD can take as many friends as she wants:) Happy days.
    first for me wombling free swims.

    This dress arrived this morning for DD3, really lovely quality and a steal at £8.50 (extra 15% off at mo) down from £38 :eek: still available in lots of sizes. It is petite range but not really short so if anyone is daring (cjj ;)) and doesn't mind showing a bit of leg I would not say the top was a particularly petite fitting. :cool:

    I got myself the bigger version of the green xmas dress I didn't fit into in the ivory for my holiday for £10.20 as well. :o It does fit perfect review did say that colour came up smaller than other colours same size. Maybe I should get the green one out again. :whistle:

    To be 10% cheaper Asda needed to be: £4.43 £5.99 £0.59 £0.20
    Compared to the 10% cheaper price
    £4.09 more
    £0.73 more £0.02 less £0.03 more

    2 bikinis having to go back :( not sure where some of these designers get their sizing from. :eek: Ordered selection of bikini top sizes for DD2 last week, couple were too big but one fitted me and the other DD3. Ordered the same size again this week from 2 different designers and neither of them fit either of us. Very annoying as managed to get the bottoms in our size. :mad: Have not opened the bottoms to try otherwise I won't be able to take them back but bet they would have fitted perfectly. :o

    Thankfully finally have the right size bikini bottoms to go with the tops for DD3 from last week and been good already have my money back for the smaller bottoms as I took them back.

    I am waffling sorry.......

    In other news I let a Walkers voucher go OOD. :doh:
