    Morning all, looks wet and dull outside again :(

    if anyone was looking at the

    Beehive Drinks Dispenser 9L Blue

    on the Wilkos website yesterday which went OOS the blue ones are now back, there are also green and pink ones also £5. I put a stock notification on the green as well but not had an update yet.

    (also noticed matching glasses)

    Squigs was your shop after 9am? As my shop from earlier didn't work:(:(

    I did two shops just after 10.

    The one I checked yesterday, at about 2pm, showed the multi.:(
    I expected it to fail as both you and Zippy had said it wasn't glitching.

    I then remembered that Zippy had said that the multi was still showing when he added the Dentastix to his basket. It wasn't showing in my basket, so I wondered if the system was being slow completely updating the offer finishing. If that was the case, then I thought I would leave checking my shop until today, in the hope the system had updated and it seems to have worked!:D

    In future, I will leave checking apgs on offers ending, until the next day, to be on the safe side, unless it is only for a small amount.:)

    I had an Amazon email last week which was about

    Burgess Cat Food Sensitive Adult British Turkey and Rice 2 kg

    at £3.99 and free delivery

    My gang like the Harringtons 2kg which I can only get from Sainsburys and its £5 - they only like the salmon not the chicken - ideas above their station I know. It is very good quality food

    I thought at the £3.99 price I would try the Burgess but I only ordered one pack - just look at the price now £8.49 :eek:

    I am a world class idiot for not ordering more

    If I ordered more and the cats hated it could I have done a return within 30 days like you would for other Amazon items - do you have to pay postage for returns?

    this is my first venture into ordering food stuffs from Amazon on their subscribe and save thingy so I've put 6 months as my delivery interval so I get a chance to cancel. I must spend at least £30 a month on cat food and most of it is bulky heavy stuff so I though if I can order it online and maybe try a few brands we don't normally have then it would be worth a try.
    also as you can no longer convert to CC points after July I might as well use my TCB money to get more Amazon credit in readiness for good bargains :)

    I don't really know how this subscribe and save thingy works in practice so if anyone has an words of advice - preferably one syllable at a time.

    anyway the cat food is out on a delivery today - I love how fast Amazon is :D

    Morning all Good news from Oz DSis has recovered from heart op so well that they think they will release her later today rather than keeping her in over the weekend for observation. Just amazing how medicine is now. Thanks everyone for your support - really helped me. Just so relieved! Off to have a read back with a nice cuppa.

    Have a Good one xx

    That's a pain if we have to wait till next day as we won't be able to rinse and repeat that day:o:(

    I just had to stop myself pressing the button for free Febreeze air freshener! I seriously have enough to last quite a few years from the Tesco car vouchers :eek:
