I had afternoon tea at the Waldorph Astoria New York
After watching the Scent of a Woman many years ago I promised myself I would go there and have afternoon tea and I did
I bought my dgd a piece of jewelry from there and the sales assistant was being very helpful but she kept asking me what she liked and I said pepper pig and In The Night Garden ..SHE IS ONLY TWO .... she will get it when she is 18 or on her prom night
I WILL TRY AND RACK MY BRAIN ...as I cant remember if it was Bloomingdales or Maceys that if you buy a little red pin you get 10 per cent off everything in store. ...its a donation to war vets I think
Someone on here might know more than I can remember ...I will still have the red pin in the loft if no one else can throw any more light on the subject
That reminds me, took DD to New York the summer after she turned 16, after the exams. We went to Tiffany's and she said she would like a bracelet she saw, it was only $100. Er, no, it was a lovely diamond tennis bracelet and it was $100,000 :eek:

Slept in the car the first three nights..Then I moved in...I had no windows no hot water apart from a kettle...Used a bucket to wash in for three months before I had a shower up and running....:rotfl::rotfl:
Oh my goodness I would never cope with that. :eek:
Thankfully the rest of the house is how we want it. Just got to tackle the old secondary double glazing before we redecorate the bedrooms and lounge. But Mr TS has to renovate the guttering and facias first. We are not replacing it for UPVC, keeping the old galvanised but it needs repairing in couple of places and fresh paint job and we don't want to splash new windows.
Are you doing most of the work yourself marmite you seem very knowledgeable. :cool:
Thankfully the kitchen ones were replaced years ago all we could afford was to get that side of the house done as the frames were rotting and there was no secondary glazing to keep us cosy.0 -

I have been using ss tills, and conveyor belt tills with apgs over and under £10. Most of the time, they go through fine, but sometimes for no apparent reason, one will get rejected. It happened to me recently with a £17+ one, the apg was rejected, hence the sa appeared, suspended my shop and took me to cs. At the cs desk, she retrieve my shop, and when she scanned the apg at the cs desk till it went through fine.
I've had this too, it's happened to me twice, both times when I had scanned three apgs - 2 accepted 1 not valid? The first time I didn't even notice it had happened and lost out on £2.50 :eek: I now just do 2 at a time.I do try to keep up but sometimes life gets in the way.
I'm just a penny short of a pound. Peace and Love.

Hi
You can actually get 10% off for being a British citizen at Macys. They have a quick form to fill in. Well that was 3 years ago anyway.0 -

Was waiting for the comment about the tea and coffee stains.
Looks like Mr TS overfilled his coffee pot earlier. :mad:
And as it is bloomin cold standing in the porch I am using my cup over again with a quick rinse, black tea stains in the cups too.“Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?”
