    Been MIA for a few days, but back to the fray now!!

    Have taken 4 bags full of stuff to my local homeless/housing support charity, including 5 B&H sets, numerous toiletries, scarves, socks etc and a few decent but unwanted Christmas decks and a couple of boxes of Christmas cards.

    I felt quite warm inside that they were so grateful for them, then I realised I left them with one of my heavy duty french supermarket bags:mad:
    Never mind.

    Due to various things happening with family and friends Christmas plans have changed, so now having to do more present shopping and re think food. ( best place for crackers please, both for cheese and the ones you pull!) So 3 lip therapy kits bought, APG as expected.

    Will catch up soon, busy cooking!!

    Does anyone know If you have a NUS card does it take the 10% off or is it not applicable for alchol purchases?

    Also Disarrano have fancy Christmas bottles :)

    when you use an andriod voucher, does it vanish from your list? I can see it getting messy as I am not very organised.

    No it doesn't - and I found out the hard way with one of the C0sta not to delete before checking the receipt as I managed to bin one that still had £7 on :o (in my defence, it was supposed to have £3!).

    Fortunately I didn't delete the MandS one last week when they couldn't process it and just put it through as cash, so I still have that one to use again :D.

    Also on TCB you get 75p for crackers - the pulling version. I finally found a womble today with a box of crackers :)

    Some ill-fitting and unused crackers could always be returned if the price drops ... ;)

    S have started to reduce their Christmas range and I am sure other shops will start bringing their prices down too this week.

    Remember to check H4lifax and BoS if you have those accounts as they have a 10% discount (opt in) with their rewards for C00p :).
