    My suspicious behaviour at Bclys till today netted me a coke, £3 M&S, 3 X £3 Gregg's, 2 x £10 Dine out and a £20 meal voucher (over 2 phones). I decided to use this rather than the STDr as one of my cards is Stdr and their ATM message asks me to use card whereas Bclys says cannot read card. I didn't want to flag my account with Stdr so hoping the fact this ATM says they cannot read the card won't flag my account anywhere.

    Hi so Barclay atm s work like Santander ones do for some folk then do they pls. When I use mine in Tesco sometimes a message comes up with two cards have been detected on your device please click on the one you want to use :o Just saying lol

    I’ve been trying to remember but my brain just isn’t being helpful... we need someone to remember what we did in the biscuit glitch for this and I think it was maximum of 20 items per day per card but I wouldn’t like to say for sure x

    Evening luvlies

    Screen shot the post about the extra points at M last night on the dark side but forgot to post it :o

    Anyway, last time we did the this in M I remember buying the Fox’s crunch creams, taking them out to the car and waiting for the points to show on my app, going back in buying a small banana, getting the Morries fivers out the Catalina and doing it all again. This way I was never parting with more than 10p of real money at a time. This happened when my sister and I were speaking to each other and I was handing over bags and bags of biscuits for her to take to a local shelter.

    Can’t remember how many I bought but it must have been in excess of 200 packs. However, I do remember doing it on several cards so 20 items per day may be right :o

    Playing about with my new toy :D

    They can be used in Morrissons provided you have internet access:mad: . Their Wi-fi is hopeless. I’m mid sim for my mifi unit so have to rely on the shops Wi-fi. Tesco s is a good one for me.

    Evening all, finally managed to get a trip to Bluewater today but it appears most of the sales are finishing !!! seems to be really early this year. Loads of stock left in Mr Shoes but its manic there when it goes to 75% so will probably give that a miss. Did manage to get some bits from JL that went through the till at half the sale price though which made it worth the journey.
    Chocolate always makes me feel better!

    Afternoon all - feeling rough which a shame really cost it looks nice outside yeah I know it will be cold but it's the sort of day I could up my step count. Got like funny sensation in my left ear - it's a bit like white noise. Think it must be the leftover cartaah from the headcold I have. At least the headache has subsided.

    Not a brilliant start but hopefully I will have the energy to pop to Ms for beans and soup.

    AJ don't be naughty and take it easy. Di sorry yr op has been delayed but it's sounds as though it mightsuits you better. However have to agree with Blacklist - money tight at this time of year. I had to wait until a pension was paid into my account before I could make a contribution. Glad I don't have to wait until end of the month like most others.

    Bubbs I know you have to move out every year but don't understand why. Gosh it must be a real pain just after Xmas too.

    Enjoy the rest of your Sunday folks. xx
    Because were i live is only a 11 month licence , tbh we knew this and are prepared as much as we can be but at my sisters this yr, hence less time here :D

    Totally agree I bought them for a friend plus gave DS some to take the guy in his work A full house of whatever was on offer I hope he likes them

    I have been looking at the Morrison's eat smart range two soup and one beans for £1.15 plus 900 points ie 90p back Another friend gives to the homeless but no idea if they have access to heating up food facilities

    Oh I like a good bargain but I don't really like tinned soup Can have the Baxters carrot and coriander if pushed I still have some when they last gliched

    I "buy" loads for a homeless man but i know he as a small camping cooker and my sis's MIL buys him the cannisters:T:T

    ta!!,

    How do the Elite see this?

    Is it 20 cans in total per account?

    Or 20 cans maximum per day?

    or 20 cans per shopping basket?

    Is it 20 cans over the total promotional period ie is it cumalative ie twenty cans over 4 shops?

    these cans are better for me, love beans on toast. Also makes a nice vegetarian breakfast - linda m sausage, mands croquette and morrisons beans :)

    I’ve got to watch my spend in M on the tinned stuff as need to make a big purchase in Marksies soon, off to look for £50 gift cards in M. By buying 10 x £50 M&S GCs in separate transactions should give me 62,500 in points - worth £62.50

    Both £2 Asda v £1.56 in Waitrose. Should work out at 74p each

    https://www.waitrose.com/ecom/shop/browse/groceries/half_price/toiletries_and_beauty/skincare


    The OGX range of hair stuff is in 3 for 2, £6.99 in Asda and £5.00 in Morries.
    Would work out at £2.17 each which is a good price if it is something you use.



    John Frieda on 3 for 2, Asda £6 should compare to sainsbobs £4.00 each. Would work out £1.60 but everyone probably stocked up when £1.00. On offer in Sainsbobs until 16th January.

    Also some compare to Morries, as confirmed on a womble.

    http://www.mysupermarket.co.uk/Shopping/FindProducts.aspx?query=john+frieda&store=ASDA


    Will try and get some better pics to look at the Aussie hair stuff tomorrow - offers in Morries and Tesco 3 for £10 and Waitrose 2 for £6.00.

    Will also look if any wipes showing the offer.

    .

    These are 2 for £10 in waities so would have to buy in 6's how much would apg be please?
