    Durham it wasn't a stupid question it was an opening to a conversation, or the offer of a conversation if she wanted one.
    Maybe ask a less open question, how did you sleep or did you manage to get some sleep, have you eaten anything today. But I would keep the constant contact going.
    To lose someone knowing they were depressed is dreadful but for her not to have known is even worse all of those unanswered questions. Heart breaking for you to watch them suffer.
    Stay strong Durham x

    According to the SELs in my M, the following has happened:

    Individual Curly Wurly bars have gone onto a more favourable mbuy in M than what they were there. Now 5 for £1 instead of 4 for £1:(. So that looks like it is going to be no good unless you can find a visible trigger.

    There are now a range of other sweets, some chocolate, some not, on the new 5 for £1 mbuy in M. Fwiw, some of them could be vs M for straight 10% off 5 for £1 but this will need to await today's collection to be updated. Some of them (which are new in M - will those ones even compare?:rotfl:) may have been 20p individual price a few weeks ago or I may have just missed that when I first saw them - they came in showing 20p SELs in one of my Ms - however I had them showing 30p SELs elsewhere and they scanned at 30p, so may have been 30p from the start or had already gone up from 20p to 30p (and at least some of them now back on same price 5 for £1 but requiring fivefold purchasing:wall:). I will eventually get them onto the list (they should not work yet as I did not see 5 for £1 last Wednesday) - there do seem to be slightly more changes in M today than last time, and I'm only at my first store, quite when I am supposed to be updating it I have no idea...

    Silver Spoon Granulated Sugar 2Kg has gone up from £1 to £1.10. Therefore it could be on its last full day vs M £1 on the APG today.

    Chocolate and sugar:(.

    I spoke to someone at CS on the phone and they were brilliant. A gift card is in the post and they are going to speak sternly to said store, especially as when I'd gone back to query it, having found the web page promising a gift card, the CS person said that because I had looked so surprised, she had checked with her supervisor.

    I also said that this same store had refused me a gift card when the wrong SEL was under a product. They had honoured the price but said that the SEL did not relate to the product under which it had been placed so I was not due a gift card. CS confirmed that this was wrong and I had been due a gift card.

    CS very pleasant and apologetic and horrified!!

    Gift card for £5 arrived in the post yesterday. :)

    I have now just caught up. Durham, I am so, so, sorry. I can't imagine what you are all feeling. Hugs to others who have shared their stories and their advice too. I shall keep you in my prayers.

    If you are a Stewdent :cool: and buy an extra value or wrap meal, you get a free cheeseburger/original or mayo chicken/McFlurry,


    I like the BK app for deals, 50p fries etc.

    Sorry I've been AWOL.

    Any paypal experts on here? I have money in a paypal account in Canadian Dollars. Anyone know a way to get it out or at least into £s without incuring large fees.
