    I hate all this c section lark, I know it has a place but the skills are being lost because a lot of midwives don't get the experience.....where's our midwife, we do have one or two on here ;)
    I hope she can keep mobile as gravity is her friend today and keeping calm, lol ...hope it is all over soon as I know it seems worse when you are not actively helping xxx

    I don't think there is anyone more unreasonable than a woman in labour, we all have our own way of coping and I'm sure we are all willing her on, hope its soon x

    I am wondering if it will refresh overnight like the herbs and spices one

    I don't know, but as I didn't enter my two receipts for Schwartz and now find I am over the seven day window, I may have to hand in my Elite badge (again!) :o.

    That is £15 I will not see again :(.

    I keep all my nectar promo receipts until the points go on because they can't be trusted. On each one I write down the exact bonus offer, the date it was advertised as ending and the date the points were promised (sometimes it's 28 days after the transaction, sometimes its 28 days after the end date). File them by due date and it's easy to call up and put in a claim

    good point.

    The bonus points items I bought for mycoupons the previous week took 6 days for the points to actually be added on - almost forgotten about them.
    This week I bought 2 things on 31/10 and usually by Monday they have caught up with weekend purchases, so far nothing
    There was a few more than 5 items form the list of 50 on mycoupons last week so I was hoping to get the 1st set processed so I can do another set of 5 but if each set takes 6 days this is not going to be helpful.

    The only till spits I am getting are double points and 5 x points which are of no use if you are just buying the odd item.
    On mycoupons the basket items I've had for months have gone - used to get 900 for a £30 shop on OHs and 200 wys £10 on my own card but these have been replaced with double pointers.

    So I am back to just buying a few things for bonus points on mycoupons and hoping for maybe an added 100 or 200 points every week.
    I've had Rowntrees pastilles bags on offer for £1 - 60 points, Vienenetta on offer for £1 - 60 points, 2 packs of basic fromage frais £1 - 80 points, 3 cans of value peaches £1.05 - 40 points. Also a manadarin cheesecake which was £1.50 last week but then a day later when it appeared on my list it went up to £1.75 :( - 60 points (I have ben good and cut it in half and put half in the freezer, half in the fridge for later)

    Maybe something new and exciting will appear on nectar.com on wednesday
