SSM is that because yo only got 1?
Yes, sort of.
I argued with them that it was not clear and explicit, and the fact that they had printed the terms and conditions and had to highlight the small print with a highlighter pen evidenced this.
I also suggested that OH was a customer, so we got 2 x £5. With the £10 gift card I am more happy x100 -

Now I'm thinking about it I might have failed already as we passed a ff today so popped in and stocked up on milk although I see that's now crept up to £1.60 for two, still a saving on the supermarket milk. We then went to !!!!!! because dh wanted a dab radio for work, so I couldn't let him spend £20 when I had a £6 off £60 so we spent £40 on beer.
Maybe I could start tomorrow or maybe I should do November, what do you think?
Count whatever and exclude whatever suits you! I'm having to exclude DH's 2-3 lunches out every week as he goes with work staff who are friends and would look unsociable if he didn't. I'm just hoping to persuade him to have a bowl of chips instead of a full burger meal, you never know!
We also went for a hot chocolate (me) and cup of tea (him) in town today as we'd had a long mortgage meeting and needed something to keep us going. And I didn't shop in advance and I don't plan on driving round different shops to save money as that's just using up fuel. I think everyone will do what suits them. For me, it'll be mainly about planning ahead instead of leaving it til I get home and feeling too knackered to cook, and using up some of the random toot that's in my kitchen cupboards and freezer!
ETA: if anyone knows if subway are still doing their coupon booklet things, that would help as he's currently paying full price once a week. I know there's an app too, but he doesn't currently have a smartphone as he lost it on holiday.0
