Afternoon all.
Those that bought the phones with the £50 cashback, You should be able to start doing your claim now/soon. I have just started mine off.

Great - just need to finalise a phone to send in. Not sure if I send my old Nokia that still powers up or buy a burner phone to send in!

These are a reasonable option:
https://www.o2.co.uk/shop/phones/alcatel/20.38x#contractType=payasyougo

£4.99 (no need to top up!), possibly 99p on eBay to unlock if locked to 02.

Or would this count:
https://www.carphonewarehouse.com/mobiles/pay-as-you-go-tariff.html#!/sort/relevance/model/ALC1016BLA

Buy on 02, £4.99 up front if you get it on the 02 Classic plan with £10 top up, but that means you can cash out the £10 top up (to Apple, Playstore, etc) and if you go through Q or TCB you can get £5 back on PAYG phones so cost covered.

Morning all.

Snow has arrived, thankfully took car off hill last night in anticipation, however, 50+ miles to do in it..........

Hope everyone has a very good day, with lots of bargains found

Looks like I’m going to have to share my Christmas present with you:o


This will undoubtedly annoy DM who I though was on his jollies:)

Have you sent it yet? Check online trade in prices first - CEX?

Afternoon boys and girls

That's work finished for this year :j working this week hasn't actually been as bad as I thought. It gave me chance to look around a few shops that are normally closed when I get there

I've availed myself of a few of the £1.50 Nivea gift sets in Wilko they'll be broken up and provide my shower gel for the next year or so :rotfl:

S had some tiny jigsaw puzzles in test tube type bottles for 75p. You'd definitely need good eye sight to do them!

And a yard of Jaffa cakes for 90p :j :j

I popped into a little W this morning and was :eek: a medium size box of chocolates was allegedly half price at £14 something :eek:

Even the title is annoying, is there any need for it to be so long. And 'midwinter'...the bloke is soooo annoying!!

Too late, I have not sent it off, but when claiming, you have to tell them the iemi number and make/model of the phone. Never mind, I probably would never use it anyway.

I called in A on Wednesday - hardly a gift set in sight :eek:.

I very much doubt they could have cleared all that stock in such a short space of time, so I assume it may have been returned to the manufacturer? Given the volumes they and T had in, it was probably a manufacturer backed promo, possibly sale or return?

Perfect! Many thanks Anon, much appreciated. It's been an age since I've actually done a glitch shop so I'm rather rusty.
I'll stick with my Lidl beans that are cheaper than 39p a can

Helloooooooo:):hello::hello:

Is it still not worth buying the beans and sausages at 7p a large tin and just using the beans if you don’t like the sausages?:)

Just a thought:)

I was just thinking that too, as Mrs Anon said Little Anons are not bothered about the sausages!
