    Well I failed on the Marmite front this morning. I got held up at work and didn't get there until 9.30. The 6 they had in store had already gone:o.

    Pleased I paid for my 2 Daily Mails with wombles:)

    I'm now satisfying myself with the codes on the back and using the papers to light the log burner.

    What a really cheap campaign for Iceland.....minimum outlay, increased footfall and sales....I bought some Cadburys fingers:D, good publicity, increased brand awareness, feel good factor.......and higher Daily Mail sales too.......should be a win win situation but somehow feel a bit cheated:o

    I'll give it a miss next time

    I didnt try as tbh.............i forgot:rotfl::rotfl: i a sure im loosing my marbles:o

    More success at S.

    Put £30 in petrol and got £15 back in nectar points:T:T

    First £10 fill I got a tenner in points, while I was paying 2 other people won £10 too. Thinking there was a batch of them, I went straight back out and put in another £10. The guy in front of me got a tenner and I got 500points. Did a third £10 straight away and got another 500points. So very happy with that.

    Going back tomorrow with the other car:T

    Think I'll treat us to one of the S curry meals in a box as well .....
    I was going to order a takeaway tomorrow night but think I'll take a gamble on a Sains meal deal instead:)
