Afternoon paw sniffers:D
So pleased that lots of you have been getting the Coke. Not one for me but I've enjoyed listening to all your adventures:T
Isn't it freezing?
Had a bumper shopping day today.
Started off in M&S and got all the nightwear stuff with 20% off. The offer was already loaded onto my Sparks card. A lot of the smaller sizes were unavailable do I ordered them to collect next week.......still getting the 20% :T
I'd loaded the 20% off coffees in the cafe onto my sparks card last night but it didn't show on the receipt. Queues were everywhere and I couldn't be bothered to mention it.
Used my £5 off wys £30 in the foodhall. Got tins of biscuits and other bits. It wasn't till I got to Costa that I spotted the Mail and realised there's a £5 off wys £35. But might not have worked together.
Lots of yummy food to sample:T
Collected wrinkle cream from Boots:o:rotfl:
Then off to S. Successfully swapped points for vouchers. Everything went through the till at £112.40. SA accepted 15 vouchers......cidre, porridge, muesli etc and I ended up paying just over £8 in cash.
With the bonus points......including 400 on wines and sloppy...I got the whole lot for a couple of pounds:TTo do is to be. Rousseau
