    Not sure

    I know you can claim multiple vouchers but don't know if you can use them togrther

    You can't use 2 BMs of equal value so maybe you can't use double ups of equal value

    You could TRY 1x £10, £20, £30 and £40 in one transaction but i don't know if it would work



    I tried to use 2 vouchers last time for the wine as I redeemed 1 lot of points then decided to redeem another lot for another voucher as the multiples of wine worked out better, however only 1 voucher would scan, SA refused to manually put the second through and I had to reject part of the order then buy again with extra items. HTH


    Morning Peeps, off to catch up if I can.....

    if you read the rules of the forum (that you agreed to when you joined) you would know that the rule states "if someone's persistently causing trouble, they're PPR'd. If they are, please don't talk about them on the forum. It's unfair to do this when they aren't able to respond"

    Can i ask why my post that said the same got deleted?

    I didn't quote anyone nor did i name any particular user. I merely posted a site rule as a reminder to everyone

    I need some advice and its not about glitches or Tesco toys.

    I work as a self employed bookkeeper in a small van hire/garage business. I work 21 hours a week and in addition to admin and bookkeeping I answer the phone and take messages when my boss and the other chap are on the phone or out on a call.
    People often call for a basic one day hire price and I have a chart written out with the prices but if people ask for a weekend/week hire rate I am unable to do it as the chart does not show the correct price ( something to do with VAT). So for anything over a days hire I take a number and say they will get a call back. Also they have always made a big fuss about me using the hire software as they think I'll break it. Although recently they have allowed me to when they were out and it was the only way a hire could happen. My boss however was not at all worried about me using the Sage bookkeeping software even though I had no previous knowledge of it and I just had a crib sheet a previous employee had written.
    When I joined 2 years ago the lady in my position previously had left suddenly and the books were in complete disarray and its only the last couple of months that with the help of the accountant I can see the end of the tunnel. I really like my job as the hours are flexible, work enjoyable and its close to home.

    But yesterday something happened and I now don't know if i can stay. Earlier in the week a lady rang and obviously spoke to my boss trying to arrange an urgent MOT for her daughter She called the next day to give her reg and phone number and asked me how much a MOT was. Now i do the invoicing so I know what we charge £49.00 without VAT but I said I was not sure but I thought about £50.00. Girl came in car passed MOT and when she came to collect it he charged her £49.00 for MOT AND £42.50 being one hours labour for checking lights and levels ( which I don't believe was done ) for basically driving it 50 yards to the MOT station. She came and got car and paid and that evening her boyfriend started sending my boss threatening emails from his work email ( a local solicitor) which unfortunately turned nasty as the boss of that firm is my bosses soicitor.

    So boss came into my office to tell me this and asked if I had given her a price and I told him I had given her an approximate price. He then said " In the nicest possible way you are a nosey parker, this is my business not yours and you need to just do your job and keep out of things that don't concern you" I then said I usually only give one day hire prices and nothing else and it was a mistake. Luckily I was on half day as I was going away for 2 days work with my sister but I was so upset when I got home that I cancelled the work and am at home.

    I text my boss later and said I need to talk to him today. Firstly now having got the books straight I was looking to up my hourly rate as I started on a lower rate two years ago as I was inexperienced with the software. Yes I made a mistake but I am really upset about what he said to me about being a nosey parker. For the rest of the morning I just took long messages and put them on his desk when there was at least one I could have helped with as one was regarding monies owed by a creditor but I even put that on his desk.

    I am really tempted to just walk away and start again. I admit that I shouldnt have given her a price as such but its the personal remark I cant stomach.Sorry for such a long winded post just looking for advice

    So sorry to hear this...
    I read it through a few times and think that perhaps you might have had some reservations about the place/boss already.
    If you have no tie there I would at least start looking around, it depends on your financial situatuion as well so don't jump out of the pan so to speak..
    keep us posted as we are all here for you and hope we can give you support xxxxxxxxxx

    I'd like to ask the same question? I didn't mention any usernames. I get the rule, just don't see how it's achievable. Am I supposed to look up a member to see their status before thanking them in a post or even helping them.

    A word of warning to anyone thinking of building an extension downstairs so your child has a bathroom connected to his bedroom:eek::eek:don't as now when he goes for a poo he expects me to sit on his bed and wait for him to finish:eek::eek: being a parent is so special at times :o:o:o

    Sounds like my OH...

    that means perching on the edge of the bath so that he can chat.....
    I saw one of these home improvement programmes once and a nicely spoken lady was bemoaning en suite bathrooms and said something like "once you have them you might not like them so much.." lol

    Evening

    Can someone confirm that more than yra and aau had the Schwartz spices this morning.

    I am sure I had three at £1 and three free but not sure which store. But can find it now.

    Thanks

    they vanished from my CS too but still were on COS in the evening (claimed yesterday, still pending but they are not on the front nor the upload page anymore);
    the same happened in mid February - the mixes vanished from CS completely, it was not possible to upload receipts; made a purchase on the same day, emailed them, they honoured it
