    Good evening

    My thoughts are with all those going through a rough time X

    Well hubby on day 4 of slimming and doing really well :)

    WestieI tried doing some squats and all I can say is wow go you, I think I did 5 holding on to a chair and nearly died in the process:rotfl:

    Anyone advice ...I bought a kettle 18 months ago and the heating element has gone ? I registered it with MR as has a two year warranty but I can't find my receipt and MR has said there is nothing they can do apart from offer me a discount on another one,is that right ? X

    Don't forget to weigh same day around same time every week ;)

    Sorry been busy and not read back. missing a couple of days of posts.

    I had a good day today:

    MORNING
    Managed a free McD loyalty coffee.

    AFTERNOON
    9 piece chicken noggets fwom Boogers from App 99p normally £2.09 (last day of offer tomorrow, hopefully another will replace it)
    Passing Gweggs noticed them handing out WHOLE savoury sausage rolls, thank you I said. Worth about £1.00
    Went to Caffè Nerd, 2 double expresso fwee using O2 App and two phones. Normal cost £3,60
    NEXT....
    Mr Shoes and 6 shamboos for £4.50 and got a total of £6.00 points.
    FINALLY
    El Colonel for a fwee chippies side and a fwee coffee ( alright for free)

    Feeling stuffed and FULL of caffeine.
    Net cost . No.... there is a net profit 51p and stuff to value of over a tenner.

    DOH!! Have not realised you can collect loyalty points from Nerd using O2 App, also just read on O2 thread about getting 2 stamps for using own cup. PLEASE thank the op on that thread,
    Well done Braveheart,
    I'm smiling here as we also call it Cafe Nerd as our DGD did thinking the 'square O' was a D.

    Sorry dont know about kettle:o

    To be honest we are not eating that much differently in the way of meals as I cook from scratch most days, it's more a case of cutting out, although I did try a new breakfast, I shall post a picture ;)

    evening :)
    I haven't had time for a catch up but will do presently.
    Anyway we had a conditional spend for T and thought we would try the old mount cider as someone already posted 3 for £5 but cos recognises the receipt as cider disregarding if its a 4 pack or single bottle...well that back fired none in T...but DH was quick thinking and bought the 4 pack of childrens drink £2 cos £2.19 T I don't know if that has already been mentioned but 19p for 4 drinks seems quite good, and I had my cash back within 5mins of submitting my receipt :)
  • For those without a Morries nearby, T have the bigger 700g for £1.17 until 7/2/17
