    Got 6
    sharpies on C&C today.
    Also got the the 'chatty' chap who calls me by my first name and seems to want to know the far end of a f@rt about everything I'm buying.
    The sharpies were in stock and all came with their security tags still in place! He asked if they were for me, I said no. Well, he said, just tell them to cut them off, which will, of course mean cutting the packaging, which seriously limits what I can do with them. Think I'll brave it out and go into the store and ask then to remove them and hopefully won't be arrested for shoplifting!
    Should be ok as I know one of their security people quite well.

    Oh naughty Noelle, you do have the patience of a saint,
    Hope her naughtiness doesn't get you into trouble if it didn't belong to you!

    It won't be a problem Tinasmummy as I was doing them a favour anyway. I'm taking it back in to the shop tomorrow when I do afternoon shift and we'll sell it in the shop. The teddy still looks great on his stand, but will cut off the tag that says he should have a friend with him. Will leave 100th Anniversary tag in his ear though

    Well I tidied all my ebay stuff away, putting them safely into boxes, sorted some things to go to shop tomorrow, bagged up a few bits for doggie auctions to post off to a friend who organises them, and some bits put away in bedroom. So I think the room is now Noela-proof ........ unless she takes a liking to my 'friends' on the back of my sofa .... all cuddly toys :eek:

    I saw him and love that song . I like Ed Sheeran :T

    I agree. He is very good in bringing new singer/songwriters on, letting them tour with him, record with him, etc :j

    E. Wedel Dark Chocolate Covered Vanilla Marshmallows (380g)£3.49 87p:rotfl: As if you would buy in A.

    That seemed quick! Back up to full price apparently:(.

    £3.47:(:p 91.3p / 100g
    Store_2.15px.png
    £3.49

    So I am now deleting them from the list. I never saw them at 87p in any store (they are of a range that isn't in as many stores for me in the first place - I found other items in the range, from various stores, but not these) - I did see them online at this price and it was not marked as an online exclusive (the fact other E. Wedel items were on RTC although not as good as these IMO supported that it would be somewhere in store but I never visited a right store) and I lived in hope that the APG might pick up 87p but no-one would ever really risk there (I probably visited as many stores as they have price collection stores, or possibly more, so they had a similar chance to me of not finding it). M didn't want many people to have this item at 87p it seems.

    Oh VT...I've heard kidney stones are excruciatingly painful. Let's hope that's the end of it. Hope it hasn't affected your birthday celebrations :)
