Wow well done Izzeyb. Do you just fill up the car with £10 go and pay and then repeat 3 more times, or do you move the car .
Worried about if there are ppl behind me waiting for petrol
ooops eta just realised this wasnt you filling up your car

Morning all :wave:

Don't know if anyone has answered. If there isn't a queue, I just go back and buy another £10 of fuel.

Morning all, Happy S Day :j:rotfl:

Trip number one was 2 x petrol (1 x 5000 :j and 1 x 200) and 4 x shops (2 x clothes, 2 x groceries) - 3 x 200 and 1 x 500 = 6300 points on £60 spend

I'm hoping to take a long lunch break to do the other shops later. Lovely lady in the petrol station was joking with me about a man who went in 11 times and then said 'I'm going back for the wife's car' - was that one of you?

Good luck everyone

My sister was airlifted to Switzerland last night by private air ambulance and is awaiting an op on Monday to fix her knee. Apparently its broken in 2 places and they may have to take some bone from her back to fix it.
Luckily she has good insurance so has a private room. Also interestingly she told me the Italian hospital were really insistent to see her insurance documents before she left otherwise there was a 2000 euro bill to pay.
Makes me think the NHS should do the same!!

There was a programme on about this the other night , they do give people the bills but if they cant afford it like a lady that was took ill on a plane and landed at heathrow and gave birth too quads , she got brought in as emergency and the babies were in ICU for weeks and was she 500k:eek::eek: she wasnt coming here it was circumstances

Shes in a lot of pain but at least she is in the best place. Long road ahead for her I think but the upside is she will be home at Mums to recover and we can look after her.

I hope your sister makes a good recovery x

Hi altojack, thank you for asking.

The chemotherapy went fine, I actually felt very calm and relaxed afterwards. Think it was because something is finally being done to hopefully kill some of my cancer cells. The only problem is the mega doses of steroids gave me insomnia. So haven't slept all night, and feeling dozy and a bit nauseas today

Hope you manage to get some sleep, wishing you well x

S has been good to me....
The petrol is 3p a litre more I think than usual but in 2 goes I got 200 and then 2000....decided not to chance another today but will go back tomorrow.

Mr Shoes is throwing up so many surprises....the more you look in the haircare,the more you find....so many dry shampoos are also clearance and Trevor sorbie stuff too...seen plenty of those for £2 a bottle so combined with a cheapie thing too it doesnt work out much over.

aussie small dry shampoos are reduced to 58p...they work well and are not classed as miniatures.

Have a look in hair colours too....nice and easy age defy have some colours reduced from 6.99 to £1.75...again good if you combine with something less expensive.
As TM confirmed yesterday hairspray is a good one to have a look at and I found an orange flavoured HE shampoo for 75p too....so the branded stuff is still around.

There were lots of high end branded miniatures reduced to 50p or so...not necessarily good for the points promotion but if you are going away and want to take something nice with you,they may be worth a punt.

There were also some very good reductions on deep conditioning hair treatments and also rebalancing treatments...again if its something that you use regularly and would normally spend good money on them,there were some cracking reductions from £20 plus down to around £3.

I still havn't spent any cash on what I have bought,just converted gift card to points.

All in all an enjoyable trip out in the rain....and I come home to find Snap tells us I was top of the quiz yesterday....miracles!!!!

Wouldnt scan on these for me but she put through manual as said they wasnt travel
Well done on your 2000:T:T:T

I wasn't even challenged on the aussie dry being a mini...I used it with a hair dye to be on the safe side so that shop came to £2.33....so I think its just a case of holding your ground....
I suspect you might get some looks or comments if you just tried 2 aussie dry's at 58p each especially if you get a bad assistant but on the whole I've had a few looks .....but as yet I've not been challenged.....£1.50 is the lowest I've gone though on a transaction.
