    I think I have found the cure to my candy crush addiction. Level 2880. It is not even meant to be a hard level :eek::eek:

    That's one level I do for my bonus and :mad: if I defeat it that's not meant to happen :D

    One of my AP did not work today - I am wondering if it was when we were in B & M and had to use a normal till ... something to think about for future shops

    We got fire lighters and 2 solid air freshners and then in Sainsbobs it was cat food, french stick, sherbert dab for OH, bananas and yet more cat food and the other clothing shop (more of thst later)

    So today we got
    5 draws
    £3 greegs
    £3 greegs
    £5 Marks
    £3 marks

    Quite happy with this.

    I did a clothing return as well. A dress I bought when the 25% sale was on I brought back for a refund and then I got another clothing double up via OHs card and rebought my nice jacket which had gone to half price and blue leggings

    The worst of it is I keep looking at the website and looking in store and finding nice clothing I want :) The nectar card totals are going to take a hammering this weekend :)

    At least all of this months spends will be on one card so only one credit card bill in December :)

    Assassins creed origins 39.99 at Sains, 35 cash at CEX. Use a 20 doubled to 40 'entertainment' voucher. Get multiple vouchers in the same category by going different days / asking different cs person :) hth

    Will they accept a £40 voucher against a £39.99 purchase please & can you take to a shop to sell rather than post? TIA 🙂

    Another Vouchercode victory:)

    I was sent a £10 off from Boden and combined it with a 20% off code from Vouchercodes to get a fab velvet scarf for £20.

    I’ll put it through Quidco for the £2.50.......May not get it using a code but hey ho:)

    A lovely Christmas present for a friend. I normally spend a bit on her so will have to look for something else too.

    But a great start:)

    Boden also love me and I have a £10 voucher :j:j:j:j -

    So I went to Q and then Boden and found some acceptable jeans, did the order, applied the gift card and paid the rest with paypal.
    I've had the email from paypal but I am still convinced that the jeans went out of stock as it was going through - no idea what happens now :(
    If Boden cancel the order then I loose my Q £2.50 and what happens to my £10 - only valid until the 18th ...

    I ll bet you are. Yesterday I got 9 draws and a £5 Greggs and today I fared a bit better 6 draws a £3 Greggs, a £3 M & S and 2 cokes . Why do we have to wait a minute inbetween ? That’s a pest.

    Ap doesn't like me, all I get are draw tickets and our local coop think I have lost the plot as I keep 'popping back' for things I have forgotten!

    For once, when I decided I don't need any more clothes, I was also quite taken with quite a few of the clothes in Sainsbobs, BUT, I resisted!!!

    Bought/used vouchers for a lovely fluffy dressing gown for DG2, she's only 11 but had to buy a woman's medium. She's not 'chubby' like her Nanna, just big!
    Despite annual trip to France with DSiL I also 'bought' 6 bottles of TTD wine.

    Its the longest minute ever - waiting at self scan and clock watching

    This weekend is going to be the big test, thinking of good ways to spend some of the £3 and £5s :D
