    So true. I found this out recently with tesco wine and a box of mystery fizz. I'm really not one to complain about these as the thrill of what's inside is what's it's about for me. BUT I drew the line at having only one bottle of champers included :eek: I spoke to a lovely young man who I told I was always very happy with my mystery cases. He told me that as the offer wasn't on at the time I got my delivery, I couldn't have a replacement so I could send the whole case back or have a £15 partial refund.
    As I'd used a £10 off and the £6 delivery saver code I took the £15 off........after all why would I send the one bottle of fizz I did get back when it was Moët and Chandon imperial Brut Rose (£40) :D

    Best case of £19 wine I've ever had :) the other 5 bottles were good for fizzy wines. I just didn't get my 3 bottles of champers ;)

    :T:T:T Well done FC. Hope you got a nice bottle of Bisol in the mix. ;)

    Just been doing my Orchard program, nothing like leaving it until the last minute. Have upped my score by 2.3 in an hour. :D

    Bit jealous of all these showstoppers people are getting, I am just on the "free from" xmas program. Teach me to buy whoopsied gluten free birthday cakes for 50p won't it. :o

    A woman who buys herself a Christmas present :D that's the style Lou. I hope you are well :A

    I found my coco Chanel 7.5ml pure perfume bottle the other day.

    hi fairclaire :T
    I have wanted this for months now but didn't want to pay £129.00 for it so I was very happy with £59.50 but even better I got it for £14.50 after cc coupons :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I don't know what that smells like but I will give it a go next time I'm in boots if they sells it :T:T

    I'm ok thank you, no change with my health problem's :( anyway hope your well too xx

    back problems as I recall :( I was speaking to a very young man in his 20s who has back problems earlier today. A young man cut down in his prime from them and they occurred whilst he was repatriating bodies from our war in Afghanistan :(

    I've said to him a problem is only big if it affecting your life. I can type my problems on here and get sympathy but unless they are affecting you directly, they aren't your problem. Some people can sympathise or empathise but if you aren't suffering it then all the nice words in the worlds doesn't make it better .

    problems are only as big as the effect on you and your family. X

    Be aware that if you order from T direct that they are having MAJOR problems with getting stuff out just now.
    I see they've changed the banner on their website to 'Due to Black Friday......delivery will be 5-7 days' that banner has been there for a few weeks, they just weren't blaming Black Friday. instead it was 'high demand'

    I ordered something on 13th Nov and it was supposed to be at my local on 17th after 3pm. I got a text at 3.30 on the 17th telling me it would be delayed. I had emailed them before the text, I got an answer to that email only today telling me they were experiencing delays and it hadn't been dispatched. I could see that myself from my account. I have a £10 GC on the way. If it's not here by tomorrow (and it won't be because it still hasn't been dispatched) I will be in touch with them again a whole week after it was supposed to arrive. If they give me another gift card.....fine. it's not an item I'm desperate for. these delays must be costing them a fortune!

    I didn't rant and rave in my emails. Just a nice polite email saying how disappointed I am :D

    Not sure if you were about when I mentioned that Yodel had lost DD2's iPhone en route the first week CC boost started. She ended up getting £20 back more than the full price of the phone as they even gave her the double value of the CC points she had used in cash so that she could order it elsewhere as they had none in stock to reorder by then. The £20 was a goodwill gesture I was impressed was cash and not GC.

    I'm going to bed too still annoyed at QT :o

    I say go in and bomb Syria, there may be civilian casualties but how many more of our civilians are we willing to see killed?

    then do what our troops have done so well in Afghanistan. set up a military and police force and let the refugees take their country back. 2 birds one stone. we get rid of the terrorists and the refugees can go back to their own country.

    just my opinion.

    might as well voice it whilst I still have one :p

    Did I see some Closed Cup Mushrooms (300g) at 69p in T earlier? If so, they would work out slightly better price per unit than the Large Flat Mushrooms (250g) in Lidl at 59p. However, Everyday Essentials Mushrooms (750g) in Aldi at £1.59 (price according to msm) are better price per unit. Around the same price as those are A SP Mushrooms £1.38 for 650g. So, maybe buy in A or Aldi, if you need that many mushrooms.:)

    However, tinned mushrooms - may be cheaper:rotfl:: [Strike]I think they may be 28p in Lidl for 410g but just got to check okay?;)[/Strike] EDIT: [In fact Freshona Sliced Mushrooms (tinned) are only 200g and turn out to be 39p:eek:. (Although that still works out cheaper than SP 'fresh' 650g Mushrooms. But then the tinned ones are tinned and probably have water in the tins too.)] I think there was something about the long-time 41p tinned mushrooms in M that meant I removed them from the M list ages back. Not sure what it was now - may have been T, at one point, much cheaper or else the old 39p mushrooms in M itself becoming, for a couple of brief periods, much better.
