No TM. Single bottle does not have a barcode

Should keep you out of S's for 5 mins :rotfl::rotfl:

:o

Now now ladies.....hehe



Visited S today and they contacted Nectar for me.
I was there 40 minutes and we reached a compromise. I'm about £3 down I reckon but couldn't face talking about it any longer. The SA was convinced that my points had been removed as I had doubled up on more than one category and the guy from nectar just kept reading from a script. I wore them out with my calculations:rotfl:

Oops sorry I missed that bubbs, last I remember they had been taken off my picks couple months back. Was the first time I saw them back again today but it has been ages since I bothered to look.

Dont matter, they and the part boned breast are yummy

Thanks I will look next time I am passing. It needs to be the huge plastic tubs the amount of cheese we eat in this house.

I think last year I actually bought a box on boxing day. Living life on the edge. :rotfl:

Have actually just finished the last of the stash that were going through at 1p, from Castle Lane. A year or so ood :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: but still crisp.

Oooh. How did you get these please?

I too had some Waities coupons in the post today. May try to use them, though I may just need to buy a new freezer first! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I've got this arriving Monday.

Got 10% off on cyber Monday. :money:

Not sure if emptying the 2 freezers will touch the sides and not sure of the logistics yet of moving the old ones out and the new one in place in the garage. :eek:

No way will we eat it all before Monday. But I will use the last Waities chicken on Sunday as DD1 is down and we can finish up the icecream for afters. :cool:

Mr TS ate a anchovy and chilli pasta sauce he had made and frozen, I tried one mouthful. He does have weird taste my husband. :eek:

Your debacle with them reminds me of an incident I had with Nectar and Ebay. I converted I think about £20 worth of points to an Ebay voucher and then found out the second offer I had had was a mistake. I asked nectar to convert back points, they told me I should go to Ebay, they told me I should go to Nectar and I got shunted around for a while. In the end I got the points back - and the voucher was still in my account so I spent it a couple of weeks later Figured I had earned it trying to sort it out.

Down her in the south of France , Mr TS is harvesting the last of the tomatoes from his hot house. Can't believe we have been picking them right through to December.

Picked the last of ours, last week. Today, DGS wanted more cucumber. I told him that we'd have to get some from the shop. No, Nana, he said, we'll go to the greenhouse and pick some more. :rotfl::rotfl:

Back from training
Stayed at a hotel.
I believe that anything consumable they give, you can take.
So I took
shampoo
shower gel
soap
coffee/tea/sugar sachets
little milk thingies
notepad/pen

I did NOT take
toilet roll
hankies
towels
Against my principles (yes, I do have some!)

What if anything do you take?

Also does anyone else take a bag/satchel down for the breakfast and croissants/muffins etc fall into bag unexpectedly when seated at table? To join butter and jam? :eek: I find scrambled egg just messes up bag

I used to always take the toiletries. I used to stay in hotel Monday-Friday, and would always take the toiletries..... each day.... and store them in the car!

I still have boxed full of them!

When the children were little we were on holiday in America.. we would make a packed lunch at the breakfast..... :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
