    Now it says I don't have 8 items.. I have 9 :mad:

    I've got 2 shops today instore (not hedge trimmers :rotfl:) I had 11 in each shop and it's saying I don't have 8. I've uploaded on to A.com and everything is showing so is available online. I've taken screen shots and am prepared to do battle if necessary.

    you couldn't make my day up today been a nightmare!!


    dropped boys to school, got 40 mins out of town to get some chicks from petshop, then back to sainsburys for a couple of bits to return and some cashback items, also found some reduced stationary so spend what was refunded lol, then went to asda for a smooch and got a razor shop paid via contactless, put my other shop of a few bits through went to pay via contactless and it was declined so paid cash, looked at time thought oh I've got half hour before my physio apt so i'll grab a costa, just pulled off roundabout and car died.............bunged hazards on dived into subway as there is usually a couple of blokes working in their that I get on with......not today so I asked one direction if they could push me out of the way (one direction being 4 young lads with bad hair and skinny jeans) they said yes - bonus!! so I moved out of the way. Phoned the AA, got all the way through and my bank card had been blocked by m&s so I said never mind i'll pay by Amex, no they don't take it!! So I had to get off phone, ring m&s who blocked it thinking it may be fraudulent use and while he says I hope your day improves someone pulled out and went straight into my car. Phoned AA back who prioritised me because I had been hit, bloke came out jumped my car a couple of times and then followed me half way home. Missed my physio appt, blood pressure bit high now on phone to insurance, 16 minutes on hold so far.... and breathe!
