    Wuntto - I had to register again.
    It asked for my phone number and then sent me a 4 digit code and then asked for my password. Oh course it refused my password so I had to reset it - it sends an email to your registered address and then you click to reset.
    I reset it back to the original password :mad:
    Then I had to check my details and my name wasn't on the details section.
    When I got back into wuntto and I clicked the save button which came up with the red screen of death :(
    Finally saved but what a faff - I actually have a 3 sim free contract so they already know everything there is to know about me.

    Also have to go through this mither again with OH but with an added bit of fun. He will ring up after lunch to ask if I am ready for collection and then I will have to talk him through the process including the password which he will ask to be respelt at least a dozen times :mad:

    I have got a moral dilemma.
    In the midst of printing off the tuna fillers MOC with a printer that was in combative mood I must have also pressed the button for getting one sent to your home address :)
    So now I have 4 to use but they technically they are 2 sets of duplicates and they all have that little square code in the bottom left hand side which identify them.
    I know mostly at tills now they scan the MOCs and then bin them but the code still identifies me :(

    Could you just create some more coupons to replace the posted ones? I know it's a bit of a waste of paper but it'd solve the identifying problem. Of course, this may create it's own moral dilemma!

    Morning peeps.

    I think I need di to declutter at mine

    Well done, so was it 30 kg of clothes?
    Some stores here are 60p a kg others 50p.
    I give loads to the charity shop, now wondering if I should do this?!

    It's 50p a kilo I think she said there were 37kg, shes only a young girl and she had to run to the cash machine to get the money. I like to see young people taking initiative.

    Mhoc you've just reminded me dh has a leather Marlborough coat that he bought in Turkey about 20 years ago. I told him he'd never wear it so I was wrong because he's had it on twice, he paid about £300 for it:eek: and I've never got the image out of my mind of him stood there I shorts and a leather coat :rotfl: I wonder if there's anyone daft enough to want it :rotfl:

    When you trim down the ones you printed, make sure you don't accidentally cut off the QR bit.

    Oh dear, the scissors slipped - that's the trouble with coupon cutting with cats drapped all over you :rotfl:

    I've had a right faff too, had to re-register 2 out of 3 phones yet again.
    First one the email confirmation didn't arrive, then the app said I had tried 5 times to re-send the code and to try in 1 hour!
    I didn't and just tried again. I've found you can't use the same sim for more than one handset as it says you've already used the code.
    Just tried again with a different sim and that worked.

    how ruthless can you be - if you think he has forgotten about it altogether then drive to the next town and give it to a charity shop

    Coats are a difficult category to sort out.
    With having such a long hot summer and no coats being needed all of my winter ones went up into the guest room wardrobe.
    There is one very nice mustard one, slightly careworn I can part with because I found I had an identical one - bought when couponing was at its pinnacle from Mr T and partly paid for with MOCs and still with its labels - very serendipitous find.
    Also a mustard rain jacket but I am dithering - no replacement for this and OMG rain jackets are so expensive.

    Because of the sheer bulkiness of winter jackets you have to try and let go of one and take it to the charity shop if you buy a new one but I like all of the jazzy colours

    OH had been putting his jackets on the back of chairs in the dining room - 5 of them so I brought him hangers expecting them to go upstairs, Instead he has all 5 hanging under the stairs in a solid wall ...

    Now you have said this I am wondering if I should reset the email to the one I use on the iphone rather than the home one incase mine needs re-re-registering while we are out and about

    But then it might just stop altogether ...
