    Just tried my droid at ATM - simply tap phone on contactless sign (bottom right) and envelope appears. Helpfully, the ATM then says enter card to access services. I guess the system is half there - but that's all we need.

    Thanks

    So with the ATM can you tap, open, tap again and open again or do you need to leave 60 seconds between openings?

    My experience with purchase taps is with the visa envelopes you can open as soon as you get them but with the hsbc ones you need to leave 60s or you get the 'can't open another envelope at this time message.

    I guess it might even be you could tap 10 times in a row and receive 10 envelope sand then open them later at 0s intervals - does this work?
    I think....

    Love this, this is my mantra for 2018. After Froctober I kind of stuck with it. I didn't over buy for Christmas so we don't have mounds of stuff to get through.
    I did think the mullers might be good for my diet but no mullers would be even better so not bothering.
    I'm supposed to be having my op on 12th January but I've been full of cold since before Christmas so I'm just off to the doc's to see if I need some anti biotic. Apparently there is a concern that because the op could take up to 16 hours there's a risk of pneumonia :( happy days, watch this space. I'm on my 4th nsd of the year :j
    think it needs to be my mantra too!
    We were generally guests of others over Christmas, but do seem to have a lot of 'not good for you' stuff to get through. Still have an untouched Christmas cake, boxes of chocs and a mountain of cheese.

    Saying that I have spent £46.93 on groceries so far this year:eek:
    but have one freezer full and have started using the second one again. (and a cupboard with a lot of biscuits!)
    Currently have a huge slow cooker full of broth simmering nicely and 4 large tubs of carrot and turnip (swede for you southerners) cooling to go in the freezer, courtesy of whoopsies.
    By my reckoning we should need nothing but milk and a little fruit and veg for the rest of the month.

    Hope everything goes well for you re the op... that's an awfully long time.

    I paid £3 Chris all scanned!

    Good, that's exactly why the glitch works - You buy 12 in total, only 11 show on APG, so they all compare full price :)

    You could almost certainly save the Christmas cake for next year :)
