I always have a green marks bag with me. I go to the CS desk with my green bag, ask if its possible to have a gift certificate, very polite and humble, empty the bag, gaze hopelessly into it and sigh deeply that I have lost the receipt .... The girls scan the item and hopefully it will come up at full price and that is what your credit note will be

I go to a large M&S, buy the item then immediately go to the CS desk and say it is a present and, apologetically, I don't have a receipt. As I've only just bought it, it definitely comes up at full price and I have a credit note for the lot. :j

My Sparks card has really done well!

I am my own very worst enemy, what is the matter with me.

I've just sent eldest son the details of the above Brew Dog deal, assuming he would turn his nose up at it as he does at all of my spectacular good ideas.
Instead he said it would be great for GF so he asked for the link

I've just been writing my Christmas gift list and what a pathetic sight it is as well, mostly white space ....

Went to find a basket/box to create my hamper for my niece....Hmmmm.....It wasn't very successful having trudged around a few shops.....But a stroke of luck,...As I was walking through the city I saw a stall being set up and they were using wooden crates to display their bits and bobs...:think::think:..Bingo..:wall::wall:.It came to me in a flash. Why didn't I think of it before....I can make one with a pallet I have just acquired....Watch this space.....:D:D:D

I've started to put a few bits together..Mainly glitched bits and will use my wombles for the rest....:rotfl::rotfl:..

Ideas:think: please for what to put in it...

So far Wine, crisps, chocolates, biscuits, candles....Going to get coffee, crackers and cheese....

I would hang on a bit for the crackers as these will be on sale in a week or two.

Aldi do the most amazing salted caramel fudge and it comes in a little bag which I think would fit inside one of the little 59p Home Bargains Christmas tins someone found last week.

Poundland have the most gorgeous little oblong shortbread tins with 2 packs of shortbread inside.

Apologies if old news, I am an occasional lurker so miss a lot of posts but Sdrug have 10% off all Christmas gifts for members. This is on top of their current deals half price etc..

Quick question, did anyone receive points back when participating in recent double up at sbury?

Thank you, I have just opted in. I have been looking for a good digital camera and had almost decided to go with Curry's as there seemed to be a good deal and this has clinched it!

Curry's website so annoying. I've tried on three different browers and won't let me get to the payment page. Grrrr!
