I am back from town first job :mad: second job :mad: third job :mad: fourth Iceland shopping :j back to third :mad: back to second :j
first job went for copy of wage slip got paid 15th after being past from here to there and getting told to send email :mad: I said I only want copy of Decembers wage slip . Outcome they posting it might get it before I go back to work in new year.
Second job go Heron Foods for some Winter spice Ribena. Shop opening late due to electrical fault :mad:
Third job goes into market get eyebrows waxed/threaded first stall busy :mad: second shut :mad:
Fourth job Iceland :j
Goes back in market still :mad:
Ready for bus home goes try's Heron Foods again and :j its open and confirm Ribena 49p a bottle.
Gets to bus stop and 2 min wait and breathe bus arrives . Gets home and our Poppy was :dance: wondering why mummy was home early
That's it now apart from walkies no more going out til Wednesday when I have to visit mum.
Good Afternoon :santa2:
Made :coffee::coffee::coffee::coffee::coffee::coffee::coffee::coffee: for Elite who want a brew.
I am now going to watch Jeremy Kyle which I recorded :cool:
And a cup of tea is just what I am having now.
I had a messy list today of all the odds and ends.
I went to MS for sausages being as I have c/notes and 20% off, but guess what, the ones I like are no longer on 2 for £5 but back at normal price of £3.20 pack of 6 so I promptly put my basket back on the rack, on principle.
Went to Aldi for more cherry liqueurs - well Xmas did start last week, eating-wise, didn't it? Also some ginger stem in chocolate which I dare not open in case it causes similar addiction...
Then to A for bacon and sausage and carrots and broccoli, and some fishfingers as an antidote to all the Xmas food, and also got 2 weeks worth of petrol.
Sports Direct for some thermal base layers for the littlies - long story short, kids are off to Lapland tomorrow and DD's order from SD still has not arrived and it's now been 3 weeks in the non-arrival. Good marketing move by SD, to make everyone buy it twice, then give no refunds only exchanges. :mad:
But apparently it's only minus 5 where they are going, set to stay same till Xmas, so it shouldn't be too bad, unlike when their friends went two weeks ago and it was minus 30 and some children were crying with the cold.
So only bread and milk to get now, and library books to change. But I won't escape the mayhem altogether as I have to receive and put away DD's online shop later in the week, as they won't come home till late Friday.“All shall be well, and all shall be well and all manner of thing shall be well.”0 -
Can I ask has everyone's purchases for the Apple sauce, stuffing and gravy granules tracked on quidco CS from last week? I've just checked and mine or hubby's aren't showing under the clicksnap activity. Not sure If I should raise a claim yet.
Mine hasn't tracked yet either, but it's only 3 days since I put my claim in.
• Please allow up to 14 days for your purchase(s) to track into your Quidco account.0 -

This is in one of the questions it asks when you send for your refund...You pick your answer from the drop down box. As you can see it mentions the ball.
Tell Us About Your Purchase
How did you buy it? *
1 Sliced(bought pre-cut).
2 Sliced(cut yourself from a ball/wedge/block).
3 Grated.
4 Other.
Which one has everyone who bought the ball ticked then please ?0 -

COS are starting to shut down from Wednesday - I would be worrying at this stage esp if nothing whaysoever seems to be happening“Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove.
