    I had to change my password too. Totally forgot what password was, as use autofill. What a scutter LOL

    Got my Thornies choc heart today :)

    When we got ours the receipt came with a till spit to get the little packs for £1 instead of £3 - the ones we got free from was it 0002 ??? Anyway OH got the dark chocolate gingers ones which were quite nice - scoffed the entire pack last night :mad:
    I got the marzipan ones with the almond on the top and they are tasteless :( - I've only had 3 as I have self control :)
    But this has reminded me to email a complaint.
    You used to get Thorntons misshapes from Home Bargains for £1 and odd times there were these marzipan ones which were very nice - not any more.
    I wish I'd got the coffee ones now

    FYI
    I needed something cheap to reach £10 to get free paper. I had a £1.50 coupon for nuts
    Did not really want them but heyho they were free
    No problem sa scanning a £1.50 voucher against a £1 pack. So 50 p profit on nuts
    Guessing it will work on most mailing vouchers unless a specific item named. HTH
    Today’s £11 shop cost £1.55
    Oh I will so miss pyo

    But they have been listening and responding to customer feedback ... yeah right! Please replace PYO with two random vouchers every few months ... I cannot see many have requested that! :(

    :sad: and me

    I thought they might have fixed not having to spend the full amount to meet the conditional spend vouchers, but this came a bit out of the blue

    Haven!!!8217;t checked back yet but dettol antibacterial wipes are on pot.

    10 packs at £3.60 plus coffee and paper (there was no magazine) makes £40+
    Two for £4 so £20
    Minus 20% of £36 so £12.80
    Minus £4 off £40 mailing £8.80

    Also did frying steak and mince on another shop for £15.

    Had £1.50 off soft drinks and whites lemonade on pot, £1.35 each or two for £2 so better than free.

    And thanks to whoever posted the be fish fingers I now have a nice stock of those too.

    Off to read back since this password change thing has had me stumped all day
