    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    Just checking a few wombles I picked up in the early hours and found this one. Someone had bought the 2L Fanta, (not 1.75L as we did) and it brought up the 2 for £2 multibuy and compared to Tesco and M. Lilt didn't compare but it did against M @ £1.
    Perhaps we missed a trick?

    Coke is the only pop sold in 1.75litres. All the Sprite/Fanta/Lilt that we were buying last night was 2 litres

    We didn't miss a trick at all

    I was finally eligible for an e-reward survey today and I just got email confirmation of my 250 nectar points being awarded. :j

    It reads:

    We hope you enjoy your Reward - you earned it! Check back often for more opportunities to earn.

    Too bloody right!! That took aaaaages to tick off the list. I was going to sign up the wife on her account but I'll not bother now for a poxy 250 points :rotfl:

    Well spotted! I'm still recovering from lack of sleep and looking forward to another exciting nightshift in an hour:(

    Thought it unusual if the guys on here missed anything!

    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

    Good afternoon welldone:THG I think WGCity is a nice area that is why I always do well when I venture further afield;) but it certainly gives you a buzz ..have you checked them out on the internet that's what I always do ..it gives me even more of a buzz when I find out what it cost new;)

    I did have a look but the dress isn't current season, but it is a very classic style. Similar ones are £130-£140, so I'm very pleased. I must admit I thought of you when I spotted it :)
