Pot noodle

:(Tell me about them! Just had someone buy lots of them at 50p on a womble, together with 50p soups:(. Shame, they had two good items against M - one was Pork Sausage Rolls 372g I think was posted before - and the other was some Savoury eggs - compared £1.50 (on A mbuy price - :(they unncessarily bought A mbuy and their other item in it was non-comp against M so, on the Savoury eggs they went £1.50 (:(instead of full price) against £1 M - hopeless as the noodles and soups made A more than 10% cheaper).

Thank goodness for that!

It's Channel 4 at night. Everyone expects swearing there. What is anyone doing tuning in at that time if they then see any issue with it?

I just laughed at every use:rotfl:.
Actually, I even had a customer (stranger to me) 'swear' in my first M on Wednesday morning. She said eff off to the SS machine:rotfl:, except that she didn't say eff off but said you know what she really said. No-one appeared to hear - the SA at the SS was attending to someone else - except for me and (what I assume was) her friend. Her friend then mentioned it to me without saying it - and I said 'yes I heard it' and I was just laughing already as I'd already heard it:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:. Just so so funny (maybe it should not have been, but clearly, no harm done if just me and her heard it - and it made me laugh - clearly okay to swear at a machine if no-one around commented or made me uncomfortable at all). So, maybe it should not have been... but it did and was very funny to me. Nowadays. Socially unacceptable according to society, but I don't agree with society anyway about it nowadays so it doesn't matter - it may be socially unacceptable but still acceptable to me (as it didn't happen to make me uncomfortable at all - quite the reverse on this maybe haphazard occurrence of it?:think:).

Aiming to get rid of my mortgage by 2020. just trying to do the maths and I need an additional £675 per month!! I don't think that possible tbh. I'll probably move my TSB savings to my mortgage though as I'm sure I read that it was dropping down from 5% to 3%. Its not much but every little helps

yes January 4th is D day -I did a sepearte post a few days ago, search under TSB - not that its much help with £675 a month unless you can clone yourself and get another job.

me personally I would set a more attainable date than 3 years time

Laughing at me laughing at Alan Carr or at the customer swearing at the machine? It did - it went "surprising item in the bagging area" - and then she said what she said (in other words what everyone is thinking, what I think surely almost every time and just wish I could say to the machine!) - people should, people should do that every time, especially if it makes me laugh... not in this current society but in a different society that we should collectively decide to have instead!(:rotfl:)

It was... it was the tone (it's all about the tone, and has to be the right tone). It was just frustration (a little bit of frustration in the bagging area:rotfl:) - just completely and thoroughly justified I felt at an annoying machine!

She said exactly, word for word, what I've wanted to tell those machines to do for an extremely long time! Whether it's "unexpected" item or "surprising" item, it makes no difference! It's the same little annoyance.

Nothing wrong with Alan Carr he makes me laugh when he swears its funny but Danny Dyer cant stand .

Bet others heard her at the SS machine but pretended they didn't . I would have looked at them and smiled lol.
