Hi everyone :wave:
I'm wondering if Anon has found a SIM deal for people coming to end of their phone contract . I'm also wondering if Anon came out of the collective energy feb 2017 fix or if his is due to end like mine. If so I'm wondering who Anon is going to switch to . Only because Anon is so good at these things you understand :rotfl: xx

Energy - I bailed on the BG Fix and went for the next BG Collective Fix (I think we discussed it on here as :money: warned the prices were likely to rise).

Sim - no deals yet but just into the final month and PAC now ready. I am now actively looking and will report back if I find a good deal.

Hopefully others will make some suggestions too! Target price for the SIM including at least 2Gb data is free or thereabouts for 12 months ,).

Drove home with an opened bottle of lidl champagne wedged in my handbag that sis had opened and didn't like!
Turned a corner coming into my drive, forgetting, it shot everywhere!!

Cleaned it up, car smells lovely and just finished off what was left, was ok to me......

I personally would ditch the santander accounts and go for the following:-
3 BOS £5k each 3%
Nationwide £2.5k 5%
Tesco £3k 3%

Then open first direct and m&s for incentives switching from santander for their reg savers paying 5% and start drip feeding.

Just done my annual switch for gas and elec through TCB using simply switch for £39 cashback. Apparently I will be saving £99 as well. It is now so much easier to switch using these sites than it used to be especially as I am on economy seven which I love. It's an elite's dream of trying get as much out of the system as possible!

Well done on the pictures Scamp. I now need to find my sainsbury's receipt where I bought one banana so I could use a £2.50 to pay for my milk as I really do not need anything in double up. I also have some receipts with optiwell on thanks to TM from last week.

Forgot to say altojack please do not be put off any bank accounts that need direct debit mr. tes can be your friend for that. I can explain if you need me to!

I agree and was about to post - all depends on how much you have to save. Rates on ISAs are also so rubbish that it may be worth moving some (given you can have interest tax free now anyway - £1000 basic rate or £500 higher rate tax payer. This is not financial advice - check details before making decisions :A.

NW first (£100 refer a friend available for referee and referee ).

Then BoS and T.

How was she photographed in the dress at her wedding when it was still lost when the article was wrote though? Am I missing something?

If you read the article the wedding was in June and they sent it for cleaning after the wedding, cleaners got closed down and that was when it was lost.

The dress was lost after the wedding, when it went to the dry cleaners.

Yes I remember, I didn't bail as the savings were not worth it but with hindsight the deals now are poor and I wish I had bailed :rotfl:

Will also be looking for SIM deals and will report back. Thankyou xx

Thanks TM for mentioning shoes attached to doctors, popped into one when visiting Mum that I had forgotten about.
Aussie mega shampoo reduced to 1.05.
Managed to get the last 4 bottles.
So great with the point's coupon.

Noticed new magazines on the counter still in cellophane ready to go out.
Let's hope there's another gem in them!
