I sent eldest child a message to ask her feelings about Camembert and carrs water biscuits and she said she liked them both more than life itself :rotfl:

So that was my excuse to go to Sada to get Shopotize cashback items - cambembert, carrs biscuits, coke zero and goodfella chiritzo pizza - the later is a good late night snack

I got 2 lots, one for each of our Shopotize.

Also got 4 bombardier beers and needless to say the till voided the MOCs so CS had to be called and she just shook her head in desperation and keyed them through - I told them the new system tills rejects each and every MOC

Also found a random 99p left on an old gift card but didn't bother to print off the small APGSs I got before we went away, Asda was getting busy enough as it was

So I uploaded my receipts and mine went on straight away with no issues. OH receipt is stuck at 66% :mad: so I've scanned the receipt and sent them an email. I also emailed them about his receipt from 15th which is still showing as under review and not progressing - I can still see me chasing these 2 receipts in January

Remind me why I bother with Shopotize

What have people been getting with their !!!!!! orchard party food MOCs? My store did not have much of a selection - just some prawn things, chicken skewers and macaroons - is that all there is?

I don't know if I can be bothered to go all the way to the big hyper store tommorow for a better selection - not really worth the petrol.

If I buy 3 packs how many MOCs will the till except? The big one and 2 50p ones ??.

I've also got some of the 50p frozen fruit and veg MOCs - can I use these against value versions

I have a £4 off a £20 conditional spend to just tommorow, just trying to see how low I can go.

I've seen some turkey slices on COS but I don't think my store stocks them - apart from Gatorade I wonder if there is anything else worth getting for cashback ....?

Have fun with the family all around :cool:

We will

Eldest child is very fired up - she and bf are spending most of Chritmas break with BFs parents up north but they have a huge ammount of things planned, friends to meet and parties and drinks gatherings, most of their social circle is still up north. Just have to hope being home with us for 3 days is not going to be a sad disappointment in the middle of all the other excitements

Eldest son has not been home for 4 Christmas so I don't know how he is going to cope, totally new experience.
He has always been on duty but families always took home the singles so they always had good Christmas dinners. When they we in Kabul it was an official formal Christmas dinner.

His Gf is German but she came across when she was 19, really don't know if she has had a Christmas away from home before. All her family and relatives live in one very small town so there is a lot of socialising going from one house to the next. Her mother is in Berlin this year so Gf refused to go home and spend all of the break driving all over the place

And youngest son Is due back in the Uk very early on Boxing Day

Well I was going to go to Liverpool today to soak in the atmosphere for Christmas but I'm glad I didn t go now as it's been raining and dull all day. Then I read that it's the worst day for folk to buy their presents .

So I thought full trains, loadsof people everywhere and I didn t really need to go so I just went to my local town and I was glad to get back home .

Exactly the same here, I felt we should be going somewhere big but in the end everything we needed we could get locally. We were in town fir just after 9 and did everything within 3 hours including having hot chocolate in marks.
Then we came home and had 2 hours of tree wrestling.
We then nipped to Tesoc to do the tesco direct refund and to try and figure out the party food things but by that time we had had enough - when it's like this, you just want to be home
