    Did you read Di I actually had the email with the code found it in junk mail. Don't even remember them advertising the promotion this year.

    I did take part last year and because it was a no minimum spend code I got some sherry when Harvey's was on offer but I still have 5 bottles left. :o There are some nice vintage ports down to £60 for 6 think one was litre bottle and would work out £6.50 each. :cool:

    I think if the mystery fizz hadn't bounced out of my basket yesterday I would really have wrestled with the "pay" button. :rotfl:

    Yes I did see you post that. I'm glad I had already used mine. I bought McGuigan Cab sav one of DH favourites£31 for 12 bottles
    Still in the hotel but there are fire engines flying everywhere so maybe the river has flooded again.

    Oh and Di I don't really want to live on OOD baked beans which I think might be the case if more wine arrived. :eek:

    Port isn't wine is it? :rotfl:

    Sounds more like a daisy chain to me. Hope it all works out before they run out of trees. You would think that people could pass their vouchers along the queue in IKEA but people would probably look at you strangely if you talked to someone you didn't know.

    Silvercar this is so true of us Brits standing in a queue not talking to any one

    where as on holiday put us in a hotel and we all start nodding and saying Good Morning to every Brit we see

    Quick heads up on the Barilla vouchers.

    I didn't get a chance to print from the links in the email I received until the day after the deadline to enter competition.

    I sent them an email and they have responded saying they have opened up the printing facility for 7 days.

    So if you have emails you didn't get a chance to print try now and they should work.

    You can also get more now from mymail :)

    The 10x50p cb on fruit bowl in Ts has been refreshed :money:

    Same goes for the schweppes jars/sauce mixes

    If you are doing an online shop and going SvA via MSM for double bubble cashback/profit you can add McCain Wedges for £2v89p with 100% cb on MSM

    I know what you mean perky.

    I don't need to be on holiday to talk to people in queues. But some people do give me a look as if to say why the hell are you talking to me. :o Others just don't want to be first and will happily chat while waiting.

    My girls always get embarrassed if they are with me and have on occasions tried to shut me up. :rotfl:

    I think I need to get out more. ;)

    Doesn't always work like that. A couple of years ago I was in a M&S queue which was so long that they had some SAs going round with a box of chocolates and apologising. I had a 20% off voucher which could be used as many times as you wanted and asked the people before and after me in the queue if they needed to borrow it. Within no time at all, others were offering spare vouchers to people without one! I can't imagine how much M&S lost that day but the community spirit was great.

    I've also done something similar in a Boots queue when I had a meal deal MOC I couldn't use. I gave it to someone else in the queue suggesting that they might want to do the same with the one they would receive when they paid.

    Not sure if this has been mentioned earlier but thought I'd warn you that ncrowd have gone of out business. It was posted on the grabbit board last month but I only saw it last night.
    I had £84.95 of credit applied to my account in September as I'd booked a 2 night hotel break for my parents but the hotel were flooded during the summer and were unable to take any bookings before the offer closed. I asked for a refund but ncrowd would only give credit as more than 14 days had passed. I complained as it wasn't my fault but they did not reply.
    Now I'm stuck as to how I can get a refund. The website doesn't work any more :(
    Life is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.
    Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.
    Take time but don't waste time

    Port isn't wine is it? :rotfl:

    Port wine (also known as Vinho do Porto, Portuguese pronunciation: [ˌviɲuduˈpoɾtu], Porto, and usually simply port) is a Portuguese fortified wine produced exclusively in the Douro Valley in the northern provinces of Portugal.[1] It is typically a sweet, red wine, often served as a dessert wine, though it also comes in dry, semi-dry, and white varieties.
    I'm afraid so but very nice!
