    I like them, are they too hard, or too soft for you?

    I'm not sure what it is :o first impressions is that they feel good but I just spend the night tossing and turning and thats something I never do. Soon as i'm on the floor I sleep straight through :)

    I hope you got your money back under there guaranteed good night sleep policy.

    Nope. When asked on the way out, I told them so, they did nothing, even filled in a questionnaire which they sent me, saying the same and nothing came of it.

    The second time I stayed there wasn't through choice it was the only option :(:( Again mentioned it as I was leaving but nothing......

    On subject of fast food , I never get meal deals, normally carry 250ML bottles of own brand cola or lemonade, add you normally get half cup of ice. In sit in meals I ask for a jug of H2O . As most places make big bucks off of drinks and not the food.
    Anyway I am a tighter than tight Scot lol

    "No ice please" ;)

    If you like fizzy drinks.....

    COS - Also a couple of family members have the free 330ml Volvic water on A again (1 bottle) on their account, despite successfully claiming previously. It doesn't say Exclusive but not all family members have it this time.

    What is odd, is the free water shows when logged in through their website but not when logged in on the app :huh:.

    Will see if it pays out, but may be worth others having a quick look through the website to see if there are any different offers showing (there shouldn't be really, but these accounts do!).

    Good morning all...

    I see we have some new board guides...well done guys...I often have a mooch over to your domains so I'll have to watch what I say in future!!!

    Pacifica...bless you sweetheart...I think we are entering a rocky phase too,so big hugs and breathe through it x

    OH and I went out last night and ended up in a frankie and bennys where the carbonated machine wasn't working,so instead of buying bottles at £3 a pop instead of unlimited fountain at £2.79 guess who has a lovely jug of tap water.....OH saw that I think as the way ahead so heaven help me next time we go out.

    I may have blown frugal Jan to the limit...but my reasoning is that I've bought DS easter chocolate.

    Yesterday I too had a mooch in Iceland and I did see the port that has been talked about,but sadly it's a drink I dont know any one who would appreciate it.....I did however find a 4.5 kg bar of toberlone ....which happened to then come home with me...it's huge!!!!

    Onwards and upwards with the day....have a good one all x
    frugal October...£41.82 of £40 food shopping spend for the 2 of us!

    2017 toiletries challenge 179 out 145 in ...£18.64 spend

    Both our nectar accounts have 1,000 points if we book a train journey at virgin east coast

    Time to book tickets from Edinburgh Waverley to Edinburgh Haymarket :cool: that should only cost £1 or so :money:

    Just what I was going to say. Check there is no minimum spend to trigger the nectar points.

    I would definitely follow that up if it's not too long ago. They are usually pretty good at honouring it.

  • Good morning all, a tad late for me as I didn't have to wake early to get OH up :D

    Still very frosty out there though :eek:
