    APG checker still down so will have to wait until I can rinse and repeat. Anyone else had their APGs not scanning at manned tills lately. Last few days mine have been split, some scanning fine with their wand but others even when they input the numbers aren't accepted and they have to override them and put them through as a voucher. Never had this before and they're all under £15. TIA

    For some weird reason I woke before my alarms this morning (set three in case I slept through). Now I am almost asleep -- I think my body clock thinks the hour has gone the other way or something as it feels like 11.30 pm! So goodnight all...

    No it definitely felt like 3.15 this afternoon when the stores around me would have already been closed with my clocks now saying 4.15.

    I left my clock this time - normally I take the battery on and put it back in after a minute to reset it when it doesn't change to the right time bang on the change - it did change by itself but just after five minutes after the time change (probably waiting to pick up the new time).

    I have a clock in my car which is so fiddly to change I just leave it. I prefer it to be on GMT all year round as that seems more natural although sometimes my garage of their own accord changes it to the right time during BST, which then seems wrong once we are back in GMT later and I have my car clock then still saying BST (potentially all year if the garage doesn't change it again or I am not due to visit). It seems like BST is an artificial time to be displaying during GMT as GMT is the proper time. Why would you have a clock showing BST all year rather than GMT all year (if it could not be easily changed) as GMT is the proper base? Though I guess this is just me:rotfl:.

    I did notice a change in the T&Cs when I had a look last week for the first time in several months. This has been known about for some time now but here is what the T&Cs now say:

    "What's included, and what are the limitations?...

    20. Any item carrying a 'Whoops' label in our stores (displayed as 'reduced to clear' on your till receipt) will be compared against our Competitors' online or, in the case of Morrisons, in-store prices."

    Changed about 3 months ago though many whoopsies still don't show on the APG, however many do so best to buy any whoopsies in separate shops nowadays.

    I've been using this a couple of years now and really like it. I choose a fairer colour for winter use, think it's called cameo and a slightly darker one for when I have more of a tan in the summer. Blends very easily :)



    Poor little thing, will the whiskas grow back :(

    I found it in store today hampy but dithered over the shades. You would think I was spending £20 not £2.99:rotfl::rotfl:

    I spent my first pizza Express AP voucher today. Must say I wasnt too impressed.
    I phoned up my order, they put the voucher through and I paid £4 cash when I got there to collect.
    5 pizzas polenta chips and dough balls.
    Pizza was ok, dough balls were dry wouldnt get them again and the portion wasnt very big.
    I certainly wouldnt pay real money for it, glad i only paid £4.

    The much cheaper pizza takeaways are much better value and nicer.
