    :)

    Nice day here :)

    Off to do the dreaded cat food shop - luckily they are on offer at £3.50 in Ts today so don't have to do a BG shop :T

    The light in the shower room has gone 'ppzzzfff' & died :(

    Tried a new bulb but it's not working, so will have to get an electrician in :(

    Thanks to Caribbean backwards - gourmet perle is £3.50 in T, £3.47 in M and if you get the box flashed with a free sample of gourmet mon petit (or something like that!) it also has a 50p voucher in off any gourmet multipack

    Unless you're unlucky like me - I bought two boxes yesterday and only one had a voucher in :mad:

    What are Smileys?


    Not sure if someone else already answered but if not.
    Smileys are small square bits of paper to the value of 25p each in Asda stores


    1st time I came across Smileys was when I got overcharged on a RTC product whilst still at the till, but transaction had completed.
    They had scanned the full price item at £1 instead of entering the RTC price of 25p. So instead of me going to CS she gave me 3 Smileys
    The end is nigh

    I've had them for having to wait a long time at checkout, think one time something had to be changed for the person in front
    Be thankful for what you have because it could all be taken away tomorrow.;)

    The same is happening for me M2M. Up until today, it has always been £5
    All I can think is maybe that the meal deal is coming to an end.:(
    It must be still working today, because people have reported paying £5 instore.

    Thank you for posting, because it is all little bits of information like this, that helps to work out glitches.:)

    Morning all, this deal has always gone into the basket at £5 85 for me.Haven't bought any though so dont know instore price.

    afternoon all, I am late to the party as usual - a whole world of domestic admin to trawl through this morning

    I am off to the dizzy heights of sainsbobs later - remind me of anything I need to look for pretty please.

    I've got Emmi on the list to get for Quidco clickysnappy as its only £1 with 70p cashback and you can get 3 of each flavour - wish the expiry dates were longer on them but I am sure we drank OOD ones in the fab days when we got them free ...

    also I've written the cheap wine down, fingers crossed that we find it - does sainsburys have the 25% reduction for 6 bottles or did I make that up?

    just off to check mycoupons and nectar for any exciting developments

    also if you are still part of the defunct marks premier club and still have to use up your £10 off shoes voucher its only valid until the 14th so get your skates on :D

    ON TCB it seems you have to spend £100 to get any Marks cashback so I went via Quidco which should give me 10p plus a silver coin - I seem to have 2 of these already but I don't know why

    anyway if you go to the Marks webpage and to all ladies shoes and out them in order of price low to high Marks have flat ballet pumps for £15 and also flat sandals, 2 colours for £15 - there are slippers under this price but I don't know if the code will work.

    I went for the sandals, OK they are not glamorous but for that much if they last the summer its not too bad. I've got a few old pairs I really need to part with so this will be my incentive to put the old ones in the shoe bank - they pellet them to make African roads apparently.

    I always keep sandals in my case in readiness :)

    so the voucher code took £10 off and I used my gift card to pay the other £5 so free sandals :T

    last weekend when we were in Brum Marks I put some things in the Oxfam box and I got the girls to put the points on for me (50 points for Oxfam items, a bit of staff training was involved!)

    so I was convinced that at that point I was finally over the 3000 marks sparks points to take me to the next category of offer - I looked today and I am still 7 points short :mad:

    so maybe the sandals will finally take me across the threshold

    not that the offers are that exciting. I've got 3 lots this week including 10% choc and 25% off if I buy 6 bottles of wine (wont work with the 3 for £x offer :( ) and a free croissant if I buy a hot drink
