    Can I have my Elite badge back please?

    Given my history with TMF type promos, I didn't lose the receipt and I remembered to upload the cheese receipt for free wine :A. It has arrived :). I know... small steps ... maybe that gets me probation ... :D.

    It is still expensive that they post it - as a promo I would have sent a voucher, require purchase and reclaim a purchase, or just send a cheque or BACS for the wine and cheese purchase (buy wine and cheese on same receipt, upload receipt, send cheque or BACS/PayPal, whichever worked out cheapest and less admin.

    A reminder you had to buy cheese by 20th October (so too late now even if you find promo packs in stock) but still have time to upload your receipt.

    Good morning all, happy Saturday.
  • I'd just get it, Di, and put the total down as November's spend, but allocate the cost of anything you eat from it in October, into the October total.
    I hadn't intended carrying on after October to be honest and as Mrs Mac has said i like having a good store cupboard.it has made me use stuff out of the cupboard rather than going buying more which is good. I did see fry light on offer in Iceland yesterday when I went in for cheese, thanks Tm, it was on offer at £1.50 so I would have picked up about four normally but I refrained. Long term it just wouldn't work though because I would end up having to pay £2.30 for fry light if I needed it. So as I said the first week it has made me realise how cost effective my usual way of shopping is. I would also run out of large joints of meat and then have to pay normal price for those too:eek: never :rotfl:

    I agree with you excluding the meat costs but you cant miss a good opportunity I only finished early as we are having visitors and I am sure the leftovers will feed us next week Well that and free fish


    I am going to try again and clear some space by keeping a budget Previously I had so many "fillers" in the cupboard they never cleared but it is very comforting I do love good stash
    Me too Mrs Mac

    Good Morning :wave:


    Don't feel as achy but nose still running and I am sneezing.

    Wanted the sneezing to have stopped because mum tells me off for sneezing in her flat even though I cover my mouth :(

    Will have to somehow try and get in the bathroom when I feel a sneeze coming :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Thinks its impossible but hi ho I got to try lol :cool:.

    Makes me mad because mum sneezes and coughs and never covers her nose grrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

    Good morning my snotty nosed twin :p :rotfl: :rotfl:
    I don't feel achy and didn't sneeze during the night but have been awake since 5am.
    I used the decongestant nasal spray last night again and I kept clear, so I'm on the mend :j

    Poor you getting told off for sneezing at mums, just stay calm, sneezing can't be stopped :). Hope you have a good visit other than that xx
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    Definitely get the meat Di, just don't eat it yet.

    Morning all :)
  • Tweets and AJ lots of vitamin C for you two if you can, fresh juice is better than nothing if you can't be bothered with fresh fruit.
    I hope you both feel better soon.
