    Today, we're enjoying free refreshments in an airport lounge thanks to AMEX. Don't you just love living the highlife on a shoe string!!!

  • ChelseaFred, no you dont need to check the APG before 6am. I've taken part in a few of these one day glitches the last few weeks, and i never check my APG until 8am when i get into work the following day, its always provided the results i was expecting, even if its been mentioned on here that multis etc are now showing

    You can sleep in :-)

    Thanks, hope you're right gemmylou, did you do your shops after midnight though?
    Was it for the one-day changeover glitches?
    Shouldn't make any difference to APG for pre-midnight but we are still not certain when the multibuy updates take place:think:

    Cheers,
    ChelseaFred:)

    :o:o

    Embarrassed I am.

    Yesterday in Shrewsbury I fondled a very nice black roll neck poncho/jumper thingy in H&M as we were short cutting our way through to get to the station..
    I paused & did think about buying it but had limited time & Fourp was a mile down the street...
    I'll order it online & find a % code too I thinks :D
    NOT online :eek::eek: :mad::mad: :(:(
    So had to go back today to purchase said garment...
    Whilst calling into QVC Outlet before H&M I found a lovely black linen/cotton mix long line jumper & a black long cardi too - for ½ the price of H&M....
    No roll neck :o but I have no neck anyway :o

    Good afternoon Elite :hello:

    Had a trip to MrT earlier, nothing much there. I did try um bongo but Mocs wouldn't scan :eek: so SA called for help. Hmmm, it seems that it says on the Mocs at participating stores only and she thought maybe my store isn't one of them :eek: out of kindness she did let me have one only , bless her :p. Strange really as when they were last on sale at 64p the Mocs had to be added manually. Think I will need to choose another SA next visit ;)

    No J West spreadables. Something else I wanted they didn't have. Those rice and grains were toooooo expensive even using a moc so didn't bother :cool:

    I managed to find that cherry drink, was it so cherry or something like that. 75p in store 50p moc. I hope I like it :D

    In desperate Need of a microwave, mine is outside to be taken to the tip. Stupid thing started shooting out flames last night :eek: MrA have little or no choice and MrT has less. 2 in store, one was a manual one for £35 the other was £40. May have a look at argus and see what my local have in stock :cool:

    LS. It was lovely seeing you posting. I hope today has brought you even more healing x

    Bananababe. Hey how are you. Ages since you posted last. Sounds like now you are mortgage free you have a bit more room for manoeuvre so to speak.
    Don't stay away so long this time, you are missed on this thread x
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    Feeling very pleased. I never find any decent bargains in our local charity shops but this morning I was in Welwyn Garden City with a bit of time to kill. Found a cluster of CS and in one of them I got a M&S Indigo jumper for £1.99 and a Gerry Weber dress, also £1.99. I didn't think the dress would be any good as it's quite tailored and my top half is a bit out of proportion with my bottom half, but it fits like a glove :j:j:j
