Economic Living Is The Exercise

I don't like wine or fizz, so why do I find myself really wanting to order one of these mystery boxes?!

I didn't before I joined MSE. I seemed to have got a taste for it now. :rotfl:

I used to be an Asti drinker.

Sometimes you can't make gifts of the mystery ones as the labels are too badly damaged but yours all look great TM. :T

Still waiting here.

There's not a mark on any of them:T

I bet I get all the sticky ones this time.

I don't want to go upstairs just in case I don't hear door. It's a shame you can't track the next day delivery orders.

P&O cruisers.
Can anyone remember what the offer is if you book on board please. I am taking a cruising virgin on a trip in Feb, the price online has just dropped, but know they do a special offer if you book on board, OBC or something, so wondering if anyone can remember what it is, as probably worth me waiting a few weeks and booking then.

If you get Future Cruise deposit then it gives you £100 off your deposit and £100 OBC - think that's for 2. It limits you though to full price or the early saver price - this is still OK if there are specific cabins you want or specific holiday times eg school hols or cabins for 4 or disabled cabins. Also good if there are loads of ports that need shuttles or you want a specific dining time.

But if you are fully flexible, don't mind where or when you go so you can book late savers then Future Cruise is not going to save anything.

Our next P &O we had Future Cruise and fortunately the fares have been fairly stable so far. When we booked there was extra OBC so along with the £100 we have enough OBC to do several excursions and maybe a small bar bill so it feels a bit all inclusive.
We also had future cruise for Cunard which was a nightmare as there was nothing we really fancied so we got a little one week one, again masses of OBC so it will cover the excursions. Also at the time they were giving free drink so we will make use of this They have since then dropped the price a bit but they upgraded us to a balcony so we will be sitting out there muffled up in coats and scarves sipping free drink

I wish I did like it, it always looks so nice to sit down with a glass at the end of a day :rotfl: but I've just never found one I like

Scanned a lot of children's clothes today in Ts

Majority are 75% off SS15

Lovely Toy Story boys top & shorts scanned at £2

Avengers top £2

Found a Boofle top & bottoms & a Boofle comforter for £3

The Sale stuff is well worth scanning. I found this recently. It was reduced from £28 to £18 but scanned at £10 . The pic doesn't really do it justice, it's lovely material and fits perfectly.

Cheers :beer:
If the early saver fare stays the same, and they let me use the future cruise offer on it (its only a 4 night cruise, so there may be limits) then it will save money.

Edit: Just found the following, so not really worth it.
By securing an FCD you will receive on board spending money when you make your next booking*

On Board Spending Money:

2-7 nights on board = £25

8-14 nights on board = £50

15-21 nights on board = £75

22 nights on board or more = £100

This is exactly my style Of dress as well -
Got to snip out my noodle extra points vouchers and do some serious begging to get OH to take me back to Ts - he says 3 supermarkets I. One day is his limit - no stamina
I have not even been to sainsbobs today
