Marks and Spencers were cheapest for me (us when me and my "partner" lived together, was actually a friend but his girlfriend suggested we became partners to make it cheaper :rotfl:) dont know whether you can do cashback with quidco..... I have had excellent service and when i removed david (as he and his girlfirend had bought a house together and he moved out) i phoned up to remove him and they had to speak to him, so i gave them his mobile and before i had chance to put down the phone and call him to let him know they were going to call him (you still with me???) they had already phoned him and it was done!!! :T Marks and Spencers0 -
No, I find I have enough to do with this flylady posting and the one on the web site. I am snowed under with both. I know, I know, I don't need to do more then one level, but I get over involved.Time is more valuable than money. You can get more money but you can't get more time0
