    I can't find that dessert anywhere on T website, searched everything I can think of including Belgian chocolate and just "finest". Must be the trigger, hope mine has it if I can get in!

    On the one previous occassion Ive known it to stall was when there was a dessert from a previous dine in offer that did not carry over when the offer refreshed. So the faulty dessert was still in the display fridge as normal. THE CS came across with me and noticed that the dessert had an expired SEL so she removed it.
    Possibly then if there is a faulty dessert about it will be store dependant - who and when is restocking the meal deal fridge.

    Incidentally I noticed the other week that my store had the big blue sign behind the CS desk but it didnt say anything about DD - is it on a website anywhere?

    Good morning

    Just popping in to say thank you to everyone who keeps posting the Superdrug bargains

    Went to get some bits I needed so had a look if anything I've seen mentioned here was around... managed to get two of those expensive Olay moisturisers £3 bogof and some hair styling thingys 55p each
    Hair products were marked at the price but the Olay wasn't(probably why the two were still there)
    Used my brand new NUSextra card for 10% off too lol

    Thanks again x

    Morning all, I'm back! I went to La Palma in the Canaries for 2 weeks for a walking holiday, and also to run the ultramarathon Transvulcania. It was 74km with 4350m of ascent, a tough day out! It's such a beautiful island :-). There's no way I'll be able to catch up on everything here, but I'll have a look over the last few pages.

    Well I have changed my signature to retired :j

    Employer has dismissed me, knew that was coming. The reason was a breakdown in working relationship. I only took out a formal grievance against the owner so there was no way back

    Can I add that I have a legal advice through my home insurance which has helped and i would recommend having that to everyone

    How do you feel now - sort of relieved that its now official and in a way you knew it was coming but also seething underneath that it has come to this?
    Good advise about the legal cover - we have it on our house insurance this year and it was included free when I rang up and asked policy expert if they would match another quote I had. I think it would have been £24 otherwise.

    Does anyone here look through the Metro newspaper regularly?

    I was hoping to get some of their Mcd vouchers but dont know what days they print them.

    I went to the railway station and picked one up this morning but no vouchers in.
