    I thought they were legally only allowed to sound for about 20 minutes :eek:

    I think the occupants are away and it's just ticking over on the battery.
    It's stopped completely now:)

    Mr poundstretcher said they had sold out:o

    Anyone's A been having difficulties processing credit card transactions today. Both stores I visited today have been a nightmare. They were using those old clunky things where you swipe a voucher and it takes the imprint from your card

    Queues were horrendous. Bit like Christmas without the excitement:o

    I jokingly said " perhaps we should blame the Russians"

    " No" she answered very firmly, " we've been told it's the weather"

    Honestly. You couldn't make it up:rotfl:

    Its a visa problem was like it in Morries too, cash only though there

    Heineken has reappeared near the bottom of the offers on CoS - not sure if it an extension or if back as a new offer? It may be worth checking your app.

    Brilliant. Thanks for the heads up.....you've been very useful lately:rotfl::rotfl:

    Unfortunately I've just walked back in and there's only 4 hours left on it. I know these offers are sometimes extended.

    I've got everything crossed.

    I should have bought it last time round:o

    Now I have soir!es to organise I need cheap booze:D

    No it has expired/been withdrawn - they must have given out whatever they intended to, as I just arrived instore and fortunately checked before going to the till (it would have been better checking before I set off :o).

    ta for this - must have been a very limited supply if they disappeared this quickly before anyone saw them :(

    It is a Visa issue, yet our Little A was cash only and she insisted it was all credit cards ... I think they just got fed up, so had disabled all credit card payments.

    I know, my point was there was no reason forcash only when I have a full stable including Amex and Mastercard :p. They just couldn't be ar ... bothered :D.

    Just editing to apologise to A - just read online that apparently Visa run a lot of the systems too, hence other cards may be affected.

    Tenth Anniversary
    Evening peeps. :)

    Got to T's tonight at the perfect time.
    Loads of burgers and barbecue stuff reduced.
    All reduced to 50p, but also in the 3 for £10. And as the £2 off kicks in, It meant I was paid 50p to take each 3 away. :D

    Had to call up a neighbour to help me get it all home!
    A whole trolley full, also free JD, Vod, cider and loads of lager for the summer. :D

    I must have got over 300 packs of meat!!

    I have no room in my fridge or freezer so the neighbours have all been given loads. :)

    I love it here as when somebody has a barbecue, everyones invited. Especially me. :cool:
