    Did I see somewhere that SuperSavvyMe do cashback rather than coupons? If I did, has anyone details please as mine is only showing coupons. Thanks

    elainemn, when you put the coupons in the basket, you have the option of printing them or saving them, so that after you have bought the products you can upload your receipt. Only just looked at all this myself...saves printing:j

    For some reason I cannot print the robinsons MOCs. It is saying my printer is offline. I have tried chrome, IE and Firefox, but same on all. Does anyone know how to fix this please? Thanks,

    Now tryng to be more helpful :A. If it is a printer on wifi, check the IP for the printer hasn't changed. For some reason ours (HP on V M home network) keeps changing the IP and needs updating on the computer under printer properties.

    Tried to do Bella pasta onetwo plus droid this evening, paying worked but that was the only part of the evening that did. I wasn't concentrating and dw gave ds a taste of her pesto gnocchi - ds who has a nut allergy :eek:

    Luckily he quickly mentioned his mouth was itching, I discovered what had happened and administered antihistamine and now 2 hours, some paramedics and a lot of vomiting later he is fine.

    Tomorrow morning is triple football, tricky as dw is refusing to drive the car she 'totalled' in the car park as it 'looks to embarrassing'

    That's frightening and shows how easily it can happen. Hope DS is ok this morning

    Morning all. Another day off that I can't get any allotment stuff done because of the weather :mad:

    My rent has gone up for the first time in 10 years :eek: having figured out exactly how much rent we've paid in that time, I'm now starting to save to buy a house :eek: the rent is fixed for 4 years so I've got 4 years to get a good deposit up together. Completely from scratch. If I thought I was frugal before... :rotfl:

    You go girl:T:T:T:T

    Just one other thought, have you checked the default printer in your settings? Control panel - devices and printers (windows 10)? It should have a green tick on your default printer.

    Morning luvlies

    I've managed to pick up quite a few of these in SD and in one of my stores they keep replenishing stock. For 5p they're great to pop in the case for beach hair :). OOS online now but worth checking stores.

    Good morning all, cloudy one here, but hoping to get the lawns mowed. First thing I have to do though is get down the post office and pick up my OH's birthday present while he is out!



    I have honestly never tried taking anything back to Lidl without a receipt, but they are normally their own make do it should be worth a try, after all the worst they can do is say no! Just make sure you take the bank statement with you, it will be a transaction at the right time and covering at least the cost of the sander.



    The rental costs really scare me. A house smaller than ours but on the same cul-de-sac is currently being rented out for two and a half times what we used to pay for our mortgage :eek: Next door is also rented out for a bit more but is done privately. I often wonder how on earth someone can afford to rent a decent house!

    We have been very lucky not to have had an increase in the time we've been here. He wanted more but I haggled him down :D

    Think it depends where you live, locally rent is about 3% of property value.so not much more than mortgage interest even with super low rates.

    Local Tesco still had a few easter eggs yesterday not selling at 50% off. Anyone know when they might reduce further?

    Unfortunately I live in one of the most expensive cities outside of London and rental prices have rocketed

    Thank you! There may be times when I'll need you lot to chivvy me on if I'm struggling :o but I have to do it


    I'm going to do one of those help to buy ISA's. I was a week too old to do the LISA one :mad: I'll also have separate savings so I can squirrel away more than the £3.4k annually than the isa will allow. I feel really positive about it at the moment but no doubt there'll be wobbly moments :rotfl:

    Yuk :rotfl: in your bed though :eek:

    I've cleaned up Stanley Boy's sick three times this week :o. It was my fault though, he was 10 on Easter Sunday so I bought him some jumbo tiger prawns. Gave him a few at a time but they must have been too rich for him. I didn't learn as it happened 3 days running but I didn't want to waste them :rotfl:
