    I agree with mhoc - think we need a list of the hipp that dont compare. I have tended to stick with the 100pc fruit ones as I know I get £1.98 off the rest of my shopping. I helped DD do a shop yesterday and messed it up so need to get her receipt off her to work out which one was no good.

    Well done Bubbs on your banking. Trulymadly I think you have a rival to see who can get the best whoopsies with zippy. I am very impressed with his wrose buys esp that cheap cheese. I wonder what time of day he get these? Tinyshoes did you find your passport - I assume not. I have now mislaid 2 bargain wedding cards and my lovetoshop voucher with £30 on it from tcb. So much for moneysaving!

    Is Quidco driving anyone else mad?

    Decided to do some cashback shopping this afternoon. Can't believe the free milk offer was still on CS for me.:) Bought Yoghurts from S and had a right carry on trying to upload receipts. And now I'm confused as confirmations have been sent to the wrong email address and I am finding it totally impossible to sign out of Quidco?

    Off for a quick catch up:)
    yes! S10crt

    Made me :rotfl: I still have Mars Bars from Ts RTC quite while back if I want a chocolate fix, don't seem to fancy them as much nowadays though as think overloaded with 1p chocs for couple of years. :o

    I did fancy chips with my waities ham but went for a packet of ready salted crisps instead. :money:

    Had to pay £1 to park to collect my Debs order but got the £5 voucher. :cool:

    Friend doing an 18 pub crawl for their birthday so we joined them at the second pub for one drink earlier, just under fiver for pint and a half of coke...I should have checked if a sizzling pub was on their itinerary. :rotfl:

    In other news I fell out the back door late last night, no alcohol was involved. :o Mr TS has been out there this afternoon making the wooden ramp safer he had put in front of the door it tilted over to one side and had me straight off. Managed to get away with one grazed knee but have done something to side of my foot limping around at moment but no swelling or bruise yet. :eek:

    Hope that you are feeling better. :A
