    Morning all :D


    Well sainsbugs didn't play ball again...... had to get a few bits for other people so I done 7 clothing shops as the boys wanted the new lego batman tops, and I wanted a top and jeggings..... all produced 200 pointers.....then done all my instore food shops and ds1 wanted a new ps4 game so all further 16 transactions produced 15 x 200 and wait for it....................a 500 pointer. !!!!!! poor show from sainsbugs this time - don't think I will bother with it next time!!


    Taking the 200 pointers into consideration I could have got most of my shopping at a's for the 10% and done it all in 1 go lol x

    You've been unlucky Sarah....I would have loved you to get the biggie:)

    I guess it's been too good to be true on the last 2 promotions:o

    I would have been happier with a couple of 1000/2000 never had a 5000. On the plus side, I said to the hubby on way back could I call at morries for reduction time...........7 bags full of stuff £6, got a small trolley full everything 9p and we were the only ones there to begin with :D

    £51:eek: unsure of circumstances but do you not get assistance from NHS if it's a medical issue?

    Hi TM

    We used to get shoes through orthotics (this always makes me think of the teeth people!), but on Wedsnesday he was finally discharged as he's now walking. To be honest we probably could've got away with cheaper ones, but I wanted to go to a proper shoe shop and get 'proper' shoes. We waited 2 years for him to walk, don't want to ruin all that hard work with rubbishy shoes!:j

    Dopey here has managed to understand most things here ( Does anyone know it all?)

    I think the thing I need to get a handle on is COS shopitize clicksmart etc.

    Can anyone answer these pretty please?

    How many should I sign up to?
    Which ones are linked to each other?
    Which ones have similar offers and sometimes pay out for the same receipt?
    I smell bacon, come on own up, who doing bacon rolls?

    Morning all :)
    We got 4 x 200, 1 x 500 and 1 x 2000 yesterday. DH has been back with my car this morning for 1 x 200 and 1 x 1000. He reckons I've still got room for another £10 worth and we also need something for lunch so I'll do a little instore shop while I'm at it, then call it a day. I'm happy with what we've got :T

    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.
