    how did you do this? I can only do it if I shut the main computer down and put the ipad and phone under the pillow upstairs and Ive even been known to unplug the landline - cruel to be kind.
    Will all the interruptions i think it took me 2 days to do the wrapping
    I still have to find more small things to wrap ...

    :(:(:( I think I would rather eat green vegetables than wrap presents :o

    But I still haven't got Fourp anything until Cheshire Oaks on Monday, so I'll just pay 5p for a posh carrier bag & sellotape it up ;)

    If you are on Marshmallow version of Android you can use the sd card as internal storage.

    http://www.howtogeek.com/242937/how-to-set-up-a-new-sd-card-in-android-for-extra-storage/

    If you aren't, upgrade if you can and then do it or you'll need to root your phone to do so.

    Thanks for this I have read but will have another look tomorrow when i haven't had a drink.

    Afternoon mad squad, can anyone please shed some light on the following;
    I done a bit of an extreme couponing type shop in mrT, bought a mrT card for a few pounds and several UnG, everything seemed to go ok and I paid pennies. Then I get back to the car and notice I have a "activation successful receipt" stating the balance and then another receipt stating "this gift card cannot be used", it also says I can contact customer service to find out why but I don't want to do that. ?????

    Anyone any ideas on the above please ?

    I'm guessing I broke a giftcard/coupon ratio or something :huh::huh:

    The same happened to me. I had overage with U&G coupons. My bill at the end was £3.43 which had included a Tesco own GC for £5. The 1st till spit said successful, but was followed by another spit saying 'cannot be used'. I went to CS. Lady was mistyfied and called over a Manager. The Manager said her husband had bought her a £50 GC for her from their store on Weds and the same thing had happened (she hasn't tried to spend it yet). Until she saw my receipt she didn't think anything of it. She had mine back off me and gave me another £5 giftcard which didn't produce the cannot use till spit after the success one.
    I had thought it was because my ACTUAL cash parted with was lower than the GC amount, but I doubt that was the problem on her purchase - though if a staff discount had been applied maybe that is the case.
    It was my 1st time purchasing a GC with some overage, so I hope its just a gremlin in the system and not a fix on spends less than the GC amount
    The end is nigh
