    I checked my nectar this morning.

    Yesterday I changed 1000 of nectar points into a £10 code for Pizza express and I did the same on both mine and OHs account.

    we both had Pollo pesto £10.25 and tap water so the bill was £20.50.

    the nice waiter had no problems putting all four codes through on one bill - 2 £10 codes from different accounts and the two 1000 bonus codes again from different accounts

    so our final bill was 50p :T

    and then we went to marks for luxury hot chocolates and I used 2 of my hot drink vouchers so these cost 10p :T

    simple pleasures on a Tuesday afternoon with a hooley blowing :D

    this morning you can see 1000 points going out and 1000 going back in so in effect free dinner :j

    good morning all ,ive often seen this but can some1 tell me about the mystery wine please tia x


    Tasting Notes

    Our range of 6 Mystery Cases are made up of perfectly good quality Wine, Sparkling Wines and Champagnes that have been returned to our warehouse. Generally, these orders have been returned due to customers changing their minds at the point of delivery, but occasionally a single bottle might be damaged in transit, cosmetically impacting the other wine labels in that case.

    These wines are inspected and re-worked into new mystery cases to offer you some incredible bargains. In the "Mystery Dozen Bargain Reds Case", you'll find 12 wines retailing under £5.99 a bottle off promotion but at an unbelievable total case price of £48. So if you fancy incredible value for money and are willing to experiment with quality wines you may have never tried before, this mystery case is for you.

    And for anyone dithering about whether to buy or not, there is a new code for £10 off £60 spend!:D

    http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.php?p=69551244&postcount=659

    I would be divorced by next week if I order anymore. :o

    I think my wine stash has got a bit out of hand with bottles coming in faster than they get drunk. :eek:

    I'm off to tackle my lists I am doing a mhoc. :D

    Hoping to take advantage of Barney still blowing a bit and get some washing dry fingers crossed it stays on the line....

    Wow I am impressed. I think I need to move to a different location.

    this is also the last day for doing your 2 petrol shops for 200 points.

    I have no idea what petrol I've put in what car over the last 2 weeks. I might have to do the put in £10 on the way in and £10 on the way out and hope that at least one card gets the 200 points.

    If I can persuade OH that is

    also on my nectar its the last day for 200 points when you spend at Sainsburys local. I actually found one right next to Liverpool lime street last week and I was going to get a banana on the way back but we went a pretty way back to the station so no 200 points for me.

    so that's the only items on interest on nectar for me unless they refresh on Thursday - a vague possibility of 200 points on one card.

    An Asda spokesperson declined to comment on how many customers currently use Price Guarantee but said the outcome of the review should come in the first quarter of 2016.

    the sainsburys mycoupons refreshed offers are also not very exciting - these are valid until December 8th so its looking like a very poor show for me.

    we both have 40 points for 4 pints of semi skim milk - so that will be useful for Shopotize as well.

    we both have 40 points on kettle chips and these are bogof, 2 for £2 according to mys - I do like kettle chips but I really need to hide them from myself.

    Ive got frozen mandarin cheesecake which is not cheap but it will be OK as part of the Christmas food selection.

    OH has an interesting one - 2 cans of kingsmead hot dog sausages for 40 points - these are 50p each.
    again might be useful for Christmas if someone wants a lunch time or late evening snack


    so only an additional 140 or 120 points on each account

    Good morning all....

    we have a few fence panels down after last night...but probably due more to the fact that they were not in the best shape before Barney blew....so I guess he just put them out of their misery.
    Its a new thing this year calling storms by names...like the US I believe its alternating between a female and a male name through the alphabet....next one I believe might be Cloda...but I'm not sure as I was half asleep when Carol on the telly was explaining!!!

    Congrats on your grandsons birthday Nanny...hope you have a lovely day celebrating

    RIP Jonah....I was very privileged to meet him and talk at length with him some years ago at a friends party....a giant in stature and a very lovely guy.

    Di.. beauty comes from within....heres hoping the last session goes well ...just think of yourself as a female silver fox....its a beautiful colour IMO

    I've been banned from buying anymore wine or fizz..you cant move in the utility room for bottles ...I have been told some must be drunk first...believe me I am trying....

    Alba have a couple of new face mask trials but I dont think you can apply if you are currently doing the ones from last week...I'm not so I have applied this time...
    one is honey and the other acai or something like that..a berry I believe....
    Male or female can apply upto the age of 60
