Thanks but sadly for some strange reason Metro won't pull up on my computer!!

The web page pulls up... but not the paper.

Try a different browser SSM. It worked for me, but you have to register first. Then they send you an email to verify your account and then you have access.

Just to say that I have just successfully used the Zeek code for £5 credit that was supposedly only valid for the weekend. Hope that helps somebody.

Nectar question:

Seen the Ted Baker socks reduced to £5. Are people seriously spending £5 on a pair of garish socks just to get a nectar bonus that could be worth as little as 250 points (=£1.25 value)?

Or am I missing something?

No, you're not missing anything.

But with children now being 22-27 years of age, they would go if they opened a stocking filler present at Xmas of cheap socks.... sadly!

I am already registered with them, they sent me an e-mail this morning which opened well, I just cannot get onto the magazine. I will have a go in Chrome to see if this works.

Thanks. I did wonder if there was a voucher code that could be combined. Can't see my 22 & 26 year olds being impressed with those socks. Can't see a re-sale on Bay being worth the hassle either.

So nectar finished.

£5 is a bit much for me, though I have to say that when we've got some more pricey socks from glitches and things, they've lasted alot longer than cheap ones (dh gets through them at a rate of nots because he paces alot and has hard skin - bleugh)

I suppose if you double up the points to £2.50 then it makes it slightly better (and that's the lowest amount you get)

I've spent a bit more than I'd planned to on this one, but all stuff we'll use (although I'm finding it hard to justify the one egg pan from dunelm, but it looked so cute and I wanted it :rotfl:)
