    quick q..........with the amex small shops thing is it one solitary purchase in each shop? So only once in the shop over the promotion? Am thinking I may need a list of where to go as i'm in the !!!! end of nowhere with very few shops! and we know some people love lists lol

    I nearly forgot about this, just registered this morning. In previous years we have been away so Ive only had the last couple of days to do these so its a question I also want to know the answer to.

    I think its best to plan some shopping days within the time period when you can get to a bigger place which will have more of the shops on the list. We have a market town close to us so Ive got on my list a butchers, bookshop, gift shop, jewellers and numerous coffee shops and pubs and a farm shop so at least its a start.
    But I find spending as close to £10 extremely difficult

    one of the places Ive got listed closed in the summer and another is the local town council building which is the tourist info etc ...

    We need an Elite expert on hand to advise us :)

    Good morning all...

    I'm very late getting up...but I'm so tired.

    I had a lovely weekend with OH and DS and it went all too quickly before we took him back to uni yesterday afternoon.

    It's been a weekend that has cost a fortune due to one mishap and then another but neither put a damper on seeing my boy!!

    I'm off to have a read back over what I've missed ....but it's good to see that mhoc arrived safely back from her holibobs.

    I need to take it easy today...I have a doctors appointment tomorrow and whilst I am improving it still seems there is a long way to go before I can finally say I feel well.....although I do feel good for having my family around me over the weekend!

    Hope everyone has a wonderful week....x

    Glad that you are ok and had a good weekend. Sometimes medicine doesn't come out of a bottle. x

    Sadly I have landfill too. My extra ticket for IHSC at London on 23rd looks to be headed there if not recycled.

    The good news is I have sorted my free train fare so will be hoping to met a few of the ladies down there.

    Good morning by the way. Hope everyone is warm, happy and well. Hugs to those not so.

    Will be good to meet you.:D

    Something unexpected happened which made me smile and still continues to make me smile.

    Is anyone having problems with Q clciksnappy over the weekend or is it only me yet again?

    One receipt from Saturday was rejected as being folded which is wasn't so I resubmitted and then it was rejected as being blurred which it wasn't so I've emailed this morning with another set of 4 photos so that's 12 in all - it was the breadsticks and it was the very top of the receipt.

    Checked the other account and of the 3 babyfood items bought from Morribobs on Sunday 2 are in the pending section but not the third so again I've contacted them.

    Also checked OHs account and his receipt from Sunday is not even showing in the pending column, disappeared into a vast empty void somewhere in the ether, so I might as well do it again

    Deep sigh
