Thanks MrsM.
Actually, as the day is evolving, it transpires it could be even worse. From April I could be down from an average of 28 hours a week to 10 hours a week. That would be about half of what I need to pay the bills/mortgage. Panic mode will be setting in shortly.

Afternoon all! Hoping to go swimming again today, bought some new goggles so I need to test them out! This time next week I'll be at work!! :eek::D:eek:

Pacifica, I'm sorry to hear your news, but hopefully it's the start of a positive change for you. It's the ideal time to be job hunting as everyone is considering a new start to the year so you should have more options. Does anyone local need an Elite bargain hunter?

The funny thing is I fancy a look in shoes this year but that is about it, but my friend that I been trying to train for the last few years is almost indecently excited about it, and she has got a friend excited about it too. They reckon it is an incurable disease this bargain hunting, and they call it *my name*itis :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I've told my friend that she has not passed her training until she also has all the loyalty cards:D

Oh pacifica I'm so sorry this is anxious time for you. x

Hopefully you will have time to get something sorted if the worse happens.

Morning peeps

Bit early but for the winos.....
Taste the difference Marzemino Veneto, Italian red £3 reduced from £5.50 can recommend as I had a couple in the last double up.
Was low on red so stocked up!

Hth.

Quoting my bargain from this morning cause I noticed ts around who I think buys reds.

Has anyone returned an online order to Debenhams recently?

Can they remember if they needed to input their PIN for CC. We don't actually know it. As never use card out and about. I usually take things back and get gift card as it is in Mr TS's name but as I ordered two of a dress for sizing and think I might return the jacket too it is a significant amount. :eek:

Thanks Arthien. Changes are not afoot until April so it gives me some time to get my house in order. ie. my panic will come to the boil slowly rather than all at once. :rotfl:

Options will be weighed to within an inch of their life. (If you'll pardon the mixing of measurements there!)
