    Don't worry in for a penny in for a pound!
    I'll chase them for a refund I have all the time in the world!!
    Thanks for posting it in the first place.

    Definitely, I was really lucky on a wine glitch from M&S once just in case you didn't know but I was only one who got it, hence my reputation when it comes to wine. :rotfl:

    Oh and I only pinched it from 10 ways. :o

    Sorry for the late reply, have been out.
    Here's the link. However, the one I bought is now OOS. There is a blue one for £72 though.
    The nespresso promotion is that you get £75 of vouchers with a cappuccino machine, and £45 with an espresso machine. What makes it a particularly good deal is that Amazon have some machines at a reduced price at the moment, which means that they cost the same or slightly less than the value of the vouchers. You need to pay upfront for the machine and then claim the vouchers which are then credited to your account and used to buy the coffee. I have claimed them previously with no problem.
    Be careful as the Amazon page might be slightly incorrect as it shows some machines without an aeroccino on the £75 page when maybe they should be on the £45 voucher page. Hope that makes sense! I bought one with a milk frother to be on the safe side (but at the time that was the cheapest anyway).

    The recent change may offer an opportunity to highlight the rolling month difference with their T&Cs (even though limits have technically been there all the time). If anyone has an anonymous FB still they could post on FB page that they made a claim today and it has said they have reached their limit, even though it is their first claim this calendar month. That may prompt them to have a look without drawing attention to individual accounts?

    Or is it best left alone?

    Afternoon Elite :j

    Well I did get some sleep last night. We went through the normal routine, of me getting under covers and then Berry wanting in garden, me getting back up, opening the back door (glad I'm in a bungalow and back door is next to bedroom), Berry going out and having a wee but then he lay down outside, so I got back into bed as he normally comes back in after a couple of minutes. This time he didn't, so after about 10 minutes I popped my slippers and dressing gown on and went outside. If I go round the other side of him he will get up and come inside, so I did this, then I went back to bed

    So he starts the crying/barking. I went and got his big fluffy Costco bed from lounge and put that on top of his thin pad bed and he got on and settled down. Success .................. except by this time, I couldn't get to sleep myself. He is lovely and comfy and sleeping and I am lying there awake. It was after 5.30 that I got to sleep, and had my alarm set for 9 am for an Asda delivery :eek:

    I got up and fed woofers and then shopping arrived around 10am, messed about scanning that and putting it away and then came on laptop, catching up on emails, doing Amazon subscription orders, etc and had my breakfast at 11.30am. And Berry is very happy thank you, sleeping on his fluffy bed which is now back in place in the lounge

    And I am choking and having to use my inhaler due to the damp air coming in from the fog outside when I had door open for him last night and early morning. The sun is just breaking through now though

    tweets - your Poppy reminds me of my Bimbo who was terrified of thunderstorms and fireworks - nothing would calm him down :( Poor Poppy :(

    Oh dear, I'm back properly now aren't I? Long detailed posts instead of quick hellos :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    It is a tricky one isn't it? The T&Cs clearly say calendar month yet some people experienced different and lost out. One way to check would be if anyone knows they are up to the limit and could do a test instore shop today that is known will produce a small APG (that they are willing to sacrifice if it imposes the limit/or even a larger APG if could return items if it doesn't work).

    It may be difficult for any of us to appeal to A/make them aware if it is working on a rolling month even though their T&Cs say calendar month - we do know what the rules are even if we don't always adhere to them ... but they should :p (on the ones favouring us anyway!).

    It is not fair for muggles who are sticking to the rules - but would most muggles get near £100 in a month or 10 shops? I think with planning your targeted shops (and not including glitches) that some months it would be quite feasible.

    Anon

    CC done this morning. Used all £100 from last month so gave it a go today.
    Will post results later.

    :o

    Apologies - pulling myself together - was typing before I put my brain into gear

    Expecting a visit now from exDH & his son :) so having to get myself 'normal'

    I've heard that my Boss has said some really horrid stuff regarding my Father being ill :(:(
    Debating whether to give in a months notice & then hope new year offers me new opportunity.
    My heart is ruling my head - financially I could survive for a few months & try & find or start a new job :)

    Snap, I do not post often on here but have been following, give your self time before you make a decision, you have been under a lot of stress, have a chat with your Dr and maybe get a a couple of weeks signed off work. What ever you decide make the decision for you and don't let others push you into one.
    I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it. :)

    Weight loss 3 stone :D
