I've bought bedding, ill fit clothes, and things I can use coupons towards. Used an S gift card I got a while ago as goodwill so not spent much real money.

And petrol I needed anyway.

Afternoon mimi....

How are you too?


I've been so busy and have not had chance to come on here to be honest. Work. Mom. Life etc.

Glad you are all good though.

Do you still do those APG things? I've not done one of those for about 2 years!!!

I shall be logging on more and hope to keep in touch with you all.

Have a good weekend.

Wel done both, i got 500 and 200, will do more tomorrow

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

Yes I read that story in the paper but that said she was turned away by the US because she had no insurance !! So we have to bear the cost !

Thats serious spending....sometimes I wonder if the promotions hope that this will be the outcome.

I suppose its horses for courses and I can understand the petrol as its usually similarly priced in most supermarkets but spending on groceries has always been IMO quite expensive in S compared to the other supermarkets.

I'm not in any way challenging what you bought Sarah but is that your normal weekly spend or have you been slightly swayed by the promise of extra points.

Even ill fitting clothes would get me a reputation in my local store if I started to return them.
Im not trying to be controversial or judgemental but it does seem a little bit that S has a very good marketing dept that controls these bonus events,and all too easily shoppers can transfer their spending to the brand for just a minimal gain in points.

Went to s this morning for petrol. Went to pay and man In front got voucher for 500. I got 200 and I jokingly said that man got more than me lol
2nd got got 5000 :j:j
3rd go got 1000

Then went to Ask restaurant to use my qkr app
Bill was 48p

Got 2 shampoos in boots using coupon and got more mags

Taken mum for hospital appt 20 miles away so might be able to squeeze in another £10 petrol when we get home.

Not a bad day mse wise

Sitting in hospital car park waiting for mum and sisters to come out so having a catch up
