No sign of the Sun morrisons voucher here yet.

A couple of weeks ago someone (Karlie?) posted about a glitch using Ocado. I signed up via TCB and placed an order, then chickened out and cancelled it. Today I had £6.06 cash back go to payable...

My thinking on the Maltesers - and this is why I usually go for the Funsize packs - hope this helps people to continue to identify which are the best ones to get and avoid buying offers that are for low weights (and therefore amounts of product) - was that the Maltesers 360g boxes generally go onto £3 prices and the Maltesers 120g boxes generally go onto £1 prices (so, therefore, same price:p). However, £1 for 120g is very poor IMO (and certainly is when looked at in the light of today's Elite buy) - Maltesers Funsize at 195g for the same £1 (or vs £1 offers elsewhere) would clearly be better than the boxes! Sadly they were not one of the ones that went onto 43p in M.

My 'normal' option therefore is the Maltesers Funsize 195g (and that being at times when £1 prices are available elsewhere). However, these 75g tubes at glitched price are a better offer:D. These work out at under 89p per 195g:D:D.

...:(That's hardly any better than 195g vs 10% cheaper than £1 offer pricing:rotfl::rotfl:. 90p compared to just under 89p?:huh: Oh well, it is slightly better. Would have though it was more than that - I saw 34p and worked out about 88p and though that's well under £1. I think I was forgetting about the 10% lol:rotfl::rotfl:. Fortunately, or unfortunately, they do like Maltesers (and I like them too) in my house - a lot (and therefore :(get through more of them very quickly:rotfl::rotfl:).

Thanks for the glitch - it was a good one that helped me spend what I needed to spend on my vouchers. So, my Special Ks turned out to be free. I had my favourite SA, who doesn't look at my receipts in detail any more - I really needed that one as I :oforgot my bag that contained all my vouchers last time and ended up paying cash - it was obvious I'd paid £6.60 and got about the same back - so did need that! The SA is actually one of the more intelligent ones there (they're not autistic though!) - that knows how to use the APG - and, just as I finished, they put up the sign to close down the till - so I had got there just in time before they finished shift.:T

The other one that you see £1 offer prices on, that are no good, and I've mentioned this one before, is the Sugar Puffs 320g in the light of the Sugar Puffs 450g going to £1 in A (and recently having a further few pence CB, now expired).

Avoid Sugar Puffs 320g at £1 (unless there is CB of about at least 30p - even then it is hardly better than the 450g at straight full £1 price i.e. without CB on it). And avoid Maltesers Boxes either 120g at £1 or 360g at £3, as 195g funsize go to same £1 and 10% off can then be got as long as that's not in A and is about the same price as the 75g tubes from today. Again, this excludes situations in which a really good CB offer came onto the boxes purchase - and that would need to be about 40p (can you see that happening? I can't - it's too much %age of the purchase) or 30p plus 10p APG before it got to the same £1 for 195g - in fact, needs to be 10% off that, so the 90p for 195g (or about equivalent 89p pro rata from today's 75g) would work out at about 55p for a 120g box, so that is the absolute maximum price you should be looking to get a 120g box for. It would need at least 35p CB and 10p APG off £1 pricing! This means you'd need a 360g to cost about £1.66 (or if possible, even less, or, better, if it is a really good glitch that somehow pays you) - that's really just equivalent to 10% off £1 Maltesers funsize packs offers, or about the same as today's 75g glitch - but it is a far way off those £3 prices you may see that are therefore way too high!

Even 195g Funsize at straight £1 offer (and bought of course by itself, alone, in the place where it is on offer, without any need for fillers!) would be about 61.5p for 120g (very poor box offer price £1) or nearly £1.85:eek: for 360g (quite some way below the "offer" prices of £3 that they expect us to think are good:laugh:). Unless it's £1.85 for a 360g box, rather than usual £3 offer, it is way overpriced compared to even the straight 195g £1 offers!

What about argos, as you could buy argos in t's then go to argos and buy m and s? bit of a hassle though

I would love to go off sick till the end but I have so many safeguarding hand-overs to do that I just can't, I'd feel too guilty and it wouldn't be fair on my clients or colleagues, though I shake going to work every time and worrying is ruining all my time off.
Thank you for your advice on the applications.:)

Oh Josie that's awful......can you start some of your hand overs now and suggest that it might be a good idea while you are around for someone else to take over the reins.....the safeguarding will still be there when you have left....you need to take care of your own well being

Josie, if I was you I would write a synopsis of everything you need to hand over, and then if you do need to leave you can hand this to your manager who can ensure that there is a smooth transition ........ and hopefully you can sleep at night x

I remember working closing with someone who worked for PPU, he left and I saw him a year later........ he looked over 10 years younger! I was very tempted.... but then again if I looked 10 years younger - I would look like a teenager again :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
