Just to be aware, on the 5 for £1 sweets, with Curly Wurly vs Sains., a Cadbury Chomp Chocolate Bar is now on a.com and in the mbuy:(. First time I hadn't checked before going out, and first time it is now on there. I should have bought Cadbury Buttons, right next to the Chomp on the shelf, as it seems one of those is still showing unavailable and the other isn't on the website. It seems I am therefore going out, at the end of the APG, with a failed shop:(.

It appears SSM only lets you have 2 mocs (of each one) per computer.

Bit confused by your question.

I opt for annual interest with Virgin Money - because you can effectively earn 4.5% (now 5%) if you withdraw the money the evening before the account matures. It's a well known 'glitch' and boy do I love a glitch. :rotfl:

why might you need to do that? sorry im not up on interest rate glitches. TIA

There might be nothing left but worth popping into M&S food halls or simply foods if you're passing. They seem to be clearing space for the impending xmas lines

Loads of toiletries, jars, chocolates down to between 25p-£1


Also i saw a sign saying they are giving out 100 golden envelopes to the first 100 people instore on saturday. Might be national to celebrate 100 years of M&S

Hello my Llovelies


How are you All?


Lovely sunny day here, shame the weather wasn't so kind last week when we were in Tenby in the storms :rotfl:


But Fourp & I happily fought the sand storms & torrential rain to walk every day along Tenby South Beach into town


That Sister had a scan yesterday which will reveal if immunotherapy treatment is working, if not then there is no more ...


This Sunday we are ascending Snowdon by train as a tick on her bucket list - hoping for glorious weather :A


Lots of bestest wishes to All :kisses3:

Everything crossed for positive news Snap x

Its an on going glitch which Virgin have known about for a year, yet seem unable to prevent it hence being paid double interest when the account matures.

Thanks Karlie. Nice to see you still pop in here
Do you know what it works out as annual interest with the cumulative (wow big word for me) effect
tia

Depends...on,

How much you pay in?
Whether you pay in the same time each month?
How long the account has before maturity?

I may have messed up . Mrs Anon applied for an Am3x G0ld using my referral - I added me on as a supplementary card and it has been referred rather than instant approval . Now when I applied last year it was referred then accepted, so the supplementary card could be a coincidence ... I (... I mean she ) probably should have waited to add the second card :eek:.

Anon

Have been doing this for years, occasionally get referred but always been accepted. Longer post on this this evening.

Don't forget that if you are late canxing your card they will refund the fee prorata anyway.
