    When I type, on screen it is showing as single line spacing. When it appears as posted, it has double spacingas the paragraph break (and I edit when I remember). Odd.

    Looks like you now get a weekly choice of main deals.

    So it is:

    Greggs OR WHSmith OR £3 Eating Out Meal

    "It's here. It's really here ..." said the email - why would we get excited that their offer has changed and is now worse than what it was?

    Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the offers but if this continues and the weeks when we have to choose between Dominos, a bottle of wine at Maj or Costa is not going to go down well ...


    They should spend their time sorting the iOS app!

    Evening paw sniffers :D

    I found a lovely receipt tonight in a trolley so I hope the "ol" machine keeps chugging along until 8.30 when I can check it:rotfl:

    Could be worth a fiver I'm guessing:D

    Are we all ok?

    I bumped into our lovely lady again tonight who is too shy to post.......come on...we"ll give you a warm welcome:T:T:T

    Tenth Anniversary
    Evening peeps. :)

    Well, tonight i went to A's to do a final womble. I used the last of my APG's and had a good chat with the staff that know me. I told them that it was a sad day as I wouldn't probably be shopping here anymore as I have no reason to without APG. A few replied that a couple of other peeps had said the same! Wish I knew who they were. :cool:

    Anyway. I took a little hip flask with some nice whiskey and gave a toast to A's whilst sat in the carpark (on a bench)!

    Found 6 wombles, total...............£12.55. :T

    Might have to go back tomorrow to use them. :rotfl:

    I'm afraid I broke my no spend run today.

    These cost me 20p in total in T after the Dr Oetker coupon:T:T:T

    Oswald has a coupon to spend too. I might go back for the "free" vanilla extract tomorrow.

    He loves a butterfly cake:D:rotfl:
