    Reading about purchases for nectar points I had a look at my app.
    I have an offer for 500 points for a spend instore. There is no minimum amount I can see so can I just buy a small bar of chocolate? Have to go in by sunday to get points from the other weekend added. 500 pts not to be sniffed at.
    The other thing I presume you are going through the nectar link and buying small things in the hope of winning points?

    Oh also got 500 bonus points if I swipe 5 times before 24 th November. Again presume any swipes will do.

    This nectar thing is very exciting but I can't get onto any of the websites:mad:

    I see our foxy lady has been busy today in Marksies:D

    Shame it didn't work for everyone.

    I can't believe it. Mr TM and I are just back in the house from TableTable and I've found an email sent to me at the same time as he was downing his pint of BlackSheep, for a free pint of Hobgoblin to celebrate Halloween.

    How rude:D

    Now we will have to go back:rotfl:

    Afternoon all!

    It turns out it's just as well I've been trying to keep my Frock on, after lasting 3 long months at a pants new job, hoping it would get better, they finally saved me the job of quitting and let me go this morning.

    They said their requirements had changed and they couldn't give me the support I needed, and they wouldn't be replacing me (none of which came as a surprise). I was a bit shocked, but more annoyed that they'd let me quit my last long-term job, left me with no management or support for 3 months and then just let me go like it was no big deal :mad: The worst thing is that I now have a 3-month job on my cv so I'm going to get advice from some recruiter friends about whether to bother even mentioning it.

    I've decided to take a few days to do some of the niggling jobs I haven't had time to do around the house, then get my CV out there. At least DH earns enough to support me for a bit so I don't have to rush into the first available job. Not quite how I was expecting to end the week!! :eek: Looks like I'll be joining the Novockers and properly keeping to a tight budget until I get a new job. Doesn't even look like I'll be able to get much in the way of Jobseeker's Allowance in the meantime, so much for paying years of NI...

    Sorry to hear this Arthien.....but I agree....how annoying that they let you walk away from your long term job to join them:o

    I'm certain things will work out for you...we usually make it happen don't we:A

    Besides ....you will make a wonderful Nocker:D

    A small bar of chocolate will be fine VT:T

    I called in tonight to get my free yoghurt and my 250 points added.

    Bought 1L bottle of JD as a Christmas present to put away and the monthly magazine down to £1:T

    I should think so, super fast at processing - had ours in less than a week for the last application :). Various flavours ariund including a N3ctar or Gold. Both have bonus points for hitting a minimum spend, plus potentially cashback.

    Oooh:p

    Quiet Advisor....if you are reading, MrTM is just trying the award winning Malbec from A.
    You are right. It's going in the cooking wine category.

    How can 240 independent wine experts say it's the best:eek:
