Hi
Just been reading your views on Android Pay. I think it’s linked to the device even with factory reset I couldn’t add a new account. I have managed to get one using a new gmail, same card on my Samsung tablet - you can’t use this to pay with but I set up the new account with the tap and pay showing then signed in on my A3 which the previous account had been on. I hope this makes sense. I suppose a cheap android with at least 4.4( to download android pay) would work to set up an account even with no nfc as once the account is set up then sign in on a phone with nfc.

Sorry I am being a bit stupid here can you explain in simple terms for a technophobe.
:o

I followed what thry did. I set up android pay on my old samsung tab 3 tablet, as that's never had ap on before ( you can use any android, doesnt have to be samsung). I used a new email address but used same card and details. Once I'd set that up I added the new account to the existing ap on my phone. You can switch between accounts, and so far my 1st months winnings are still showing.

Hope that makes sense

:wave: everyone

Best to read the packaging to see if any lamp is suitable for use with your dimmer switch.....Most energy saving lamps will flicker on a dimmer switch....

Also, It may be worth considering upgrading your dimmer switch to a compatible switch....which will cope with the low electrical loads of these lamps...

A bit of unconnected information too....In case anyone has LEDs or energy saving lamps....These can interfere with Radio reception and also the TV controls if they are anywhere near the electrical item...I had a problem with my TV once when I put a lamp close the the TV.....The controls stopped working...Changed the batteries ect but still no use...I had bought new controls which still didn't work....Then the penny dropped....:o...Moved the lamp and hey presto...two working controls...:rotfl:

O and whilst on the subject....Don't have your phone to close to your modem....This can reduce the wireless reception in the house...

Hope this helps

When you say 'phone', do you mean smartphone or the landline plug in one? If it's the landline one i'll be shifting mine immediately.

New 3 for 2- this morning signs were going up for John Frieda on 3 for 2 and Aussie hair products in Asda. Didn’t get pics as they were just setting shelving up and moving stock.

The Aveeno body creams and Aveeno handcreams are still showing 3 for 2.

The Vaseline Intensive Care handcream still had 3 for 2 label and is still showing at £2 in Sainsbobs (40p each)

Looks like a couple of other good comparisons for handcreams

EDIT : TESTED - unfortunately didnt work. Waitrose have 50%extra free size, not as shown on mysupermarket.

Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Hand Cream Unscented

£3.40 in Asda and £1.85 Waitrose (half price offer).

Works out at 53p each.

UNTESTED

Aveeno Intensive Relief Handcream with Oatmeal (green top)
£5 Asda v £3.33 in Tesco.

Work out at £1.33 each

If tempted check signage in store and offer comes off at the till.
