    Mornink all.

    No sign of Mr Shoes sale online and no reports.......

    I went in yesterday and almost fainted at the original cost, also to me 70% off still looked just about what I would pay for stuff if I had to. Seems to me that you just need to put crud in a gaudy cardboard box and call it a gift set and mark it up 400% and muggles will buy it.

    Very true - and T's are just as bad.

    I received a Bayliss gift set once - massive glue dots held each item in place, and remained welded onto the bottles afterwards. Just plain tacky - in both senses of the word.

    Without me reading back....is it on tomorrow or not?:D

    Just back in from Bella Italia......used my vouchers which I just found this morning as I can be impulsive like that:D

    I went to Pizza Express in Chester for my 02 main and free doughballs for £5:) . Thing is by the time I'd had my free nero drink before hand I couldn't manage it all so I fetched the rest of the pasta home and had id for my tea, very nice it was too :D Susie small stomach .....I wish lol.

    If I could have paid with my £2.50 for £10 clubcard voucher it would have been a cracking deal .

    Another Mamia convert here. The nappies are excellent, far better than the 'leading' brands for fit, absorbency, leakage etc. Thank goodness that Dotty isn't here. He would have turned that comment around. :eek:


    He hasn t been on for ages . You would think he would have come on and wished us all a Merry Christmas :(

    MSE newsletter says their sources are suggesting Friday (but if their sources are people on here ... you will be no further forward as their sources could be guessing too :D).
