    Trust me to misread thread about points. did learn my lesson from previous errors and doss a test shop of 2 items:)
    Them did two shops of 10 items once at lunch once after work. Muggle at No 7 counter did my 1st shop, even put on her glasses to see offer and said it was a good offer. I even told her it finished today. when I went back later the shelf still had the stock on it from earlier, she didn't put any aside or buy any . MUGGLES FOREVER! !!

    I would appreciate any advice as to the best Vehicle Breakdown Cover. I haven't bothered with any up till now but, as the new car I got for my DIL who had her Motobility car taken away broke down with a flat battery 2 weeks after I bought it, I am feeling a bit concerned that mine might break down on me !

    I have looked at RAC AA and Green Flag all via the Top Cash Back site. AA is very expensive for the full package and implies that the cost will rise after the first year. RAC works out at around £120 with £50 cashback and Green Flag comes in at £49 with £14 cash back. So Green Flag looks like the best option - does anyone have any comments on the choice between RAC and Green Flag and their reliability please ? Or any other suggestions ?

    RAC through clubcard points. AA of you have a policy with them for other insurance, in fact check with car insurance company to see what they can offer or add on.
