Morning All,
Going out in a bit, lidl first for the half price deals, hopefully some meat left, they tend to save some for the Sunday shoppers and then to get a C&C and pick up some cidre.
Will be checking the Finish price and if good put an order in for later.
Anyone want me to check anything?
Need to top up a gift card to £144. I see MatthewS has a few. I spend a lot but not that much. I have only just realised this opportunity, I'm a bit slow at times
got three more today.
also some babywipes (12 packs) are RTC in store. Surely this would have been better kept in BWTFYL instead of MSE
ive asked nerfdad a few times but he wont let me join.
im happy in the skippy club and here for now anyway.0 -

Got 2 Covent Garden ones and got a couple of the skinny ones in A
Cidres and the porridge ones I picked up in S last week.....S allowed me to put 5 through.:T
The Barilla pasta has gone up in T to £1.50 so I will wait patiently for it to come down in price.
Found an M&S womble .......£5 off when you spend £30 so now the race is on to get the mymail fivers and I have to find 24p on valued opinions to get to £10.50 when I can withdraw a tenner.
That's nearly a shop in itself. :rotfl:I'm planning to get tins of M&S biscuits for Christmas ......love a good tin......they get lots of use throughout the year transporting cakes:)
used to love couponing, pity its such a rare event now, its been such fun getting the cidres“Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove.

and with nerves of steel
I clear my cc cards every month - could not sleep unless I did, the long cold hungry decades have taught me that.
As to getting 3% on savings - very few places now pay more than 1%
I thought with these 0% cards you had to at least pay the minimum amount (is it 5% each month) so your hypothetical £500 could not be tied up in a long term bond and would have to be in an instant access account
For standard risk free savings mhoc there's nothing to touch the Santander account. I think you can have accounts in your own name and a joint account too......so if I'm correct that's £60K earning 3% and cashback on utilities etcTo do is to be. Rousseau

I finally decided to do a glitchy A c/c for dishwasher tabs.
Ordered 3 boxes with a bottle of whisky and other shopping to get it to £75.00 as I had a £10.00 off £75.00
With apg vouchers it came to £45.00 ish
When I got there they kept me waiting for over 30 minutes and I was getting a bit flustered after reading some of the stories on here.
Anyway 2 of them were stood discussing my order before they marched up to my car ,I was nearly wetting myself by then.
To cut a long story short I had manages to select "no subs" by mistake.
There was no tabs and no whisky so the cost of my shopping was £19.00 less the £30.00 ish e vouchers.
I didn't ask how much it was as I was so relieved not to get marched off somewhere, but I think £11.00 was mentioned.
Not showing anything in bank account but my apg vouchers and c/spend are still showing on my A's account so I am completely lost now.
I "think " if they take £11.00 ish from my bank and I keep apg vouchers it should be about right and I will think myself lucky that they have not nicked them.
Sorry this is so long , oh and I got over £20.00 apg from this shop :T:T:T:T0 -

Could one of you kind gents give me an idiots guide to this gift card thingy-me-bob.
I have a lot of APG, and I also have a gift card sent from Asda.... do I just ask use an APG bigger than the shop and ask them to put the difference on the gift card.... and why have a few?
Thanks x100 -
