    Thaw your champers in the fridge. It'll thaw more slowly and less chance of popping. Also more chance it'll still be drinkable. As long as the cork stays in place you won't lose fizz. I have salvaged forgotten about frozen fizz this way ;)

    Thanks FC good to know you have successfully salvaged some, no corks have popped. It was left on floor of cold garage overnight so I guess has thawed slowly as it was still cold but defrosted this morning. Have taken all the Carling out camping fridge as that was not popular. :eek: And exchanged for the champagne to open this afternoon. :beer:

    Just about to start round 2, first guests have arrived good job only dd1 and Teeny as I'm not showered yet. :o. But everything is in fit state for a repeat _party__party__party_

    All done. Thanks Anon. Only 8 bottles so far...
    Debating going to another A's OH will kill me leaving her to man the fort on her own.

    But you do come home bearing gifts :cool:

    You appear new to this ... Mrs Anon now puts orders in to me and actually asks me what is glitching if I haven't checked for a while - she is even mentioning when typical fillers of soups, cake mix etc are running low :).

    310 bottles must be 31 shops at 10 bottles a shop ;P

    Cant possibly drink that much pop tho :P. Must know a resaler, but even if sold at half price is £150 for 5 hours collection time.

    Realistically that £150 for a days work if you include voucher print off, research time (i.e on these forums) and resale.

    Still approx 50k yearly salary.

    yup, CC/HD only

    counters
    minstrels
    m&ms
    peanut m&ms
    revels

    I'll confirm how each of these compares v M later

    maltesers, crispy m&ms and magic stars are £2.09 instore so no good unless they are OOS (which is when I've been ordering them)

    mars mix and twix mix are both £1 instore so have potential to work but I can't see them on A.com to order

    Havent used it as a contactless card yet. Went to use it in Ikea the other day and what I wanted cost £30. Lady said £20 max at the moment so that was that lol. Since found out most stores it can still only be used up to £20 spend.
    Was thinking if Sains petrol take it, can use it there and also with nectar card might get both offers. Will have to fill up less and more often as use to do a tank full at a time with the Tesco offer

    I have just cottoned onto doing split shops - eg this morning it was £17 for the window blind and then everything else went through on the 2nd shop.

    Next month is not going to be so easy - its mostly things needed for the refurb that I've used it on - only if Sainsburys petrol station do contactless and only half tanks at a time
