    just bumping this up as I also got the Pippa pig toothpaste for shopimum in Superdrug which was 99p but it didn't look like the photo but it scanned ok and they paid out today :j
    I used a gift card to pay for this and my foot stuff but that seems to be ok for cashback purposes.
    it's going into one of the Christmas shoe boxes

    Superdrug - you can either order online via TCB and get a little bit of cashback and free delivery if you have a beauty card.

    or instore as I did today as I was worried that you might not get the free pack ordering online

    buy 2 foot care items these start at .99p and there are useful things like foot files, nails scissors, blister packs - my 2 heel plaster packs came to £2.19 - you get a barefoot pack which contains 2 full size products - foot scrub and foot lotion

    packs are limited as always

    the packs show as £8.50 when the girl scans them :eek: and then it shows as a link save item at the end

    there is a nice pedicure pack which would go nicely in a pamper hamper type present for about £3.50 and palmers do a foot cream if you liked the free lotions we got from Q the other week

    bumping this up - wondering if it was just me that got these MOCs and if anyone else did have them did it compare when you did a !!!!!! v Sada shop.
    on mysupermarket is showing as starred and out of stock in Sada but I am not convinced its the correct version.
    might play say and just get them on their own
    I was in Asda this afternoon and the tuna shelf had loads that were reduced to clear for 50p - fancy princes and flavoured tunas

    check your emails for a new one from Princes - print off voucher for free princes Tuna Fillers :j

    I had 2 emails from 2 emails and both printed off one voucher - if you have multiple accounts you might be able to print several off

    The MOCs are valid for a month print off with your name and postcode on - you might though have several addresses and your name might be personalised Coupon if you don't like your name and address known to all and sundry.

    I tried to look them up on mysupermarket but they don't seem to be on any lists but then I noticed it said Tesco or Nisa - not sure about the ethics of using MOCs in little nisa shops.

    I am thinking though if they really don't stock them in sada you get them in Mr !!!!!! along with the 6 Schwartz herbs for COS as they are still 2 for £2 in sada so that's 7 of your list of 12 items (2 for luck)
    - plus whatever other cashback items that sada does not stock

    Afternoon gang
    not been around much as life is too much at the mo.....one thing that happened is a customer paid our business by bacs and then claimed half of the money back...it is a scam as they had the work done and had an invoice but somehow they used a different account (not their business one) and we have now had our account suspended- we have done nothing wrong but they have claimed some sort of fraud...anyone ever heard of this before as I haven't and I work for a bank ?!!!

    I used to work for a bank Wendy but had never heard of that before :eek: doesn't sound right

    I know and I am absolutley gobsmacked at the sheer front of the guy.
    I now think it was a scam from the start, getting loads of work done and then getting it repaid. The worse thing is this is a small family business and the bank are saying things like, if it happens again.......what ? we are the innocent ones !!
    Oh and my bum problem is worse, went to A & E inthe night and its a fractured coxis :(

    For heavens sake nooo, that's why you've had so much pain then. What have they told you to do?

    I've been a bit presumptuous and invited the betties over for a buffet and drinks this evening from 7:)

    I will go and invite the locals in the money saving arms too as I know they made us massively welcome recently.

    Could we have some nominations for those prepared to make bunting, bake cakes, pour drinks, take coats and maybe even offer Indian head massages:rotfl:

    I hope we have enough chairs:o:)

    How lovely TM, glad they made you welcome. Hope the party is still going when I get back later this evening. I'll bring the nuts :eek:

    Evening

    Well it's official, got a 2:1 for 2nd year at uni. A little disappointed tbh I have one really weak area - photoshop and the written side of it is average. Roll on next year - no PS and hopefully a dissertation that shows an improvement. I'm aiming for a first ;)
    Something unexpected happened which made me smile and still continues to make me smile.
