    dw had a next gc for christmas, so we could make it go a little further. she recommended me to open an account. so i get £20 discount if i order over £50 (which i am) and once i do so, she gets another £20 code. ( she only has to spend £20.01)
    so £20 each for one of us to open a new account

    She sounds quite savvy. Do you think she could be tempted by shoppymum? :rotfl:

    I don't bother. Ugly caddy on work top, too much faff and I do think that it all ends up in land fill anyway.

    ive got at least 20 in one month, when i had the 10% card. (last year)
    and im pretty sure its been posted that you can buy one PER shop even multi shops per day. although i read that 1 year ago

    I get one every shop and have "bought" at least 2 separately in shops on the same day :)

    My Waities still has all the Christmas stuff at 25% off rather than the 75% as has been reported elsewhere. However, today I spotted the Christmas cake kit selling for £1.85...the one with the glazed fruits on top....just add 3 eggs and butter to the kit ingredients. Dunno why I didn't get one, (or two)...hope they have some left tomorrow!

    Evening all :)
    Safely home after being away overnight. Yesterday's journey was good but lots of fog on the way back, which added an extra hour to the drive :( Our lovely neighbour kindly came in and fed Jas and shut her in for the night as we were later than expected.
    TM, gutted to hear about your daughter's car. I really can't comprehend why people do things like this, no one gains from it.
    Mhoc, hope everything is going well for you x

    :eek: we have just got home from W nothing much left in the sale but we did pop in a couple of days ago with a conditional spend and u+g an innocent very good shop :) but the til spat out another £8 off £40...so it would have been rude not to use it, we also travelled to another T and at 11 am massive reductions, strawberries 20p, potato 13p, pk of 3 peppers 9p, party foods 80p and 60p also 3for2 on rtc party food comes off:) coleslaw, potato salad etc finest 10p, cheese from deli, 90%off, I have never seen so much food reduced, the sa said today was quiet in comparison with the last 2 days:eek:
    Anyway back to W whist waiting to pay people on the till next to me had 3 trolley loads of foods and wine and as I had found a £7 off £70 shop I asked if they had a w card and would like the voucher..no thank you that's fine, we don't have a card...their shopping was still going thru the til when we left I saw it was up to £454 :eek::eek: with still bottles of fizz to go.....:eek:
    my shop was £48.22 down to 32p:money::)

    The money off still works if they dont have a card as i gave one to someone couple of months ago infront of me and she didnt have a card
