    How comes a Waitrose delivery van has gone up our lane twice over the weekend but they don't deliver to our postcode:o

    Maybe he got lost are there lots of lanes round your way? We only have a back lane no one goes up there unless they are up to no good. :eek:

    Mr TS found a load of empty except a couple of stolen jewellery boxes once from Mr Argoose, we had the police come round to hand it in. :eek:

    That does not normally stop them telling us how to do things lol

    I was doing my cross stitch and my OH decided that there was a quicker way of doing it - only do one stitch in each square :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Not sure Sal, but I'm going to try on my Christmas Saver tomorrow :) Will let you know what happens.

    Couldn't resist :rotfl: research ;)

    No-go I'm afraid Sal :(

    Put £5 on my Christmas Saver, £3.83 worth of shopping. handed over £4.79 of APG's (£2.25, 41p and £2.13).

    Till automatically voided 2 of the apg's and adjusted them to £1.58 - leaving exactly £5 to pay.

    As we thought, can't transfer apg's to card.

    Only reason I can think of for yours working is the m/buy?

    I used to use apple juice a lot - nice with green cabbage and carrot for breakfast. Yes, really. :)
