    Had a lovely afternoon in Metro Center. Popped into Superdrug & there was a shelf full of Dove. Not got any before so 9 dropped into my basket for pressies and ideal for me when traveling. Still loads more left on the shelf but think SA might get 3 as she noticed the deal.
    Walked past the umbrella stand and found 6 zebra brollies. Had 1 scanned & they were 90p each. Now nicely in my pressie box for Xmas. So did really well as did the Xmas pressie box, thanks to Ops for both.

    Well done elaine:T:T:T

    Hasn't it been a gorgeous day:)

    Mr TM's team ride went well. I made just the right amount of food....very little waste. My ears pricked up when one rider said they had started to do their shopping on line at T and they had been getting chickens at half price....and they now had a freezer full. I didn't interrogate as it was real life:rotfl::rotfl: but they said it had all stopped now. So perhaps we've missed something:o

    TM did you have some NCG soup vouchers with you as well? I hope so.

    I'm delighted that people did well at S today. TM, I'd email Sainsbury's and complain about CS not putting points on. They did it for me today as tills couldn't cope with duplicates of vouchers and I had some 200 ones to be added.

    Afternoon paw sniffers:D

    My trip to S petrol station ended on a high note too.

    2000 and 200:T:T

    More than happy with that:)

    Went to the CS desk to ask if they would put my points on but they refused and said I would have to buy something and go through a normal till. I said I wasn't buying anything but she looked at me like I had 2 heads:rotfl:
    I will have to wait until the normal girl is on.

    Can someone put an alarm on their phone to remind TS to get that £25 loaded onto her nectar card before the time limit expires:rotfl:

    Done already :p

    In fact the ladies at the petrol station were very obliging this time and would have added it my 2nd go but I had left it in the car. :o. So redeemed both my first 2 petrol ones on my instore shop. :T. Then my instore shop on my 3rd petrol, my 3rd petrol on my 4th. :D

    So for a change I'm ahead of the game this time just my last 200 point left to redeem :cool: Started the day with nearly £5 nectar points and have ended with about £35 I think :j

    I'm just hoping I didn't pinch aau"s 5000 pointer that he felt was in his bones :o

    Am I the only one who has only just realised that COS are giving us free Optiwell and that there is a voucher for it around too?! I printed the voucher a few days ago but my S didn't stock it so it is still in my bag. Was in T earlier today too, delivering some Boots poo to the foodbank. Ah well...

    I do think Sainsbobs offers are very poor lately I really struggled to spend just the one £10 instore :eek:

    Not even a £10 meal deal that I could see...

    In the end stocked up on some organic pulses, sunflower oil and butter as the prices don't differ hugely from other stores and Mr TS does prefer if I buy organic so no raised eyebrows when I got home ;)
