So in theory you can have one free granola using your shopimum app and email address and your OH could have another with his sopimum app and email - better than nothing.

I've been eating a pack I found in the cupboard and adding dried cranberries and pumpkin seeds ( both from Home Bargains)

Yes, you should be able to. I phoned first & the person I spoke to sort of said that but she dealt with exports & didn’t really know so suggested I emailed, which I did.

Free sauvignon blanc from majestic on wuntu

Or as braveheart would say " fwee suave not red from regal-like store on 2 minus one, 2 to the power of one"

Hmm - I wonder if me, DW and the three little michels's turn up clutching our phones whether they will give us 5 bottles of wine?!

These FX cards we have. Can we use them anywhere that accepts mastercard?

May need to activate online first. I just dump these sort of things into our gas/leccy supplier account as it saves carrying the card round, forgetting about it, losing it etc....

It was showing earlier but has disappeared off my app again .

Fortunately took a screen shot on my phone but others in the family hadn't .

It seems to be the same code though ...

Rakuten have all gone . Note to self - always screen shot even if it says unlimited!

If you click on use can you still get to it from your wallet even if it has disappeared from the main page?

I am sure me and Di would lend our services to clutch a phone if needed.

Not sure whether we might hand over the wine after though. :rotfl:

Has anyone had a looksee to make a list of suitable items to get for GJ and also shopimum?

On Shopimum there is Galbani which is £2 and free

Other things are also discounts like 50% - still not bad if you actually use them

Having a quiet seethe here.

We had letters regarding next weeks blood donation session which has had to be cancelled - its the venues fault. So I rang to rebook and the next best appointments are not until October 25th :mad:

Then I put reminder messages on NextDoor and the local facebook pages - it would be very easy for peopel to think they were just got reminder appointment letters and to just shove them into your bag unopened and ready for next week.

Then I had another look at the appointments page online and there are only 7 spaces left :eek:

Other than that the next blood donation sessions for both the local towns is not until next year :mad:

..

Hi MHOC not been around much but just popped on and saw this and had a similar experience a couple of weeks ago.
OH has suspected Haemachromatosis so his blood is very rich in iron and extremely good for recipeints as its not contagious.
It also does him a great favour as it reduces his symptoms temporarily.
I managed to get him an appointment although we had to travel quite a long way but couldn't get myself one due to availability.
On arrival I asked if I could donate and they took me through, ran the main office andI was all done in a short while.
OH sat and sat and sat and eventually I com plained that he was over na hour over the appointment and was told that they were taking them in order as they were very busy !!!!!!

He mentioned his condition and they downed tools and refused to take his blood, eventually we persuaded them and they rang head office who agreed they could- needless to say three hours in a donation centre is not a fun way to spend your afternoon
