    I thinkmit was anon who mentioned cleaning products, I am still decanting the MrMuscle kitchen cleaner that was £2 for about 5l in B&Q I can't imagine how many years ago that was. I got about 5 I think, I am on my last one now though.

    My transaction tracked, but the bonus just says 'opted in'. I spoke to the online chat and they said it'll be like that until the cashback is confirmed.

    That explains it then.
    I had another look and I can see September 24th but no bonus offer - I vaguely remember one of them Q or TCB putting bonus in a different place but I cant remember where or which one.

    its as bad as savvys lost keys, lost vouchers and lost receipts - nothing is ever where it should be :D

    I've just done one of my Q orders for exactly £6 and I noticed the VAT was £1.01 on the order so now I am worried.
    £1.01 is not 20% of £6 - it should be £1.20
    Maybe I should just aim for £6.20 for the next order to be on the safe side ...

    Dorset Cereals Product recall

    "At Dorset Cereals we’re committed to making great cereals, but sometimes things can go wrong. We’ve been made aware that some of our Gloriously Roasted Nut Muesli 600g may contain a small quantity of grains that have not been properly milled. These are hard and may cause discomfort if bitten.

    We would therefore recommend that if you do have one of these packs in your cupboard with a best before date and production code printed on the bottom of the pack matching the below, do get in touch and we will send you a voucher for a free box of cereal.

    Something unexpected happened which made me smile and still continues to make me smile.

    Thankyou very helpful, a friend has had hers done and its cost £8 000, and OH said he thought that was way too expensive, he thought it would be around £2 000 :rotfl: he is going to be shocked when I show him this.

    Think we may stick with our normal conservatory roof, as I would prefer a new kitchen :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    :rotfl: i only had it done coz i had holes in the polycarbon and it was all brown in places, i didnt think there was much of a price difference so thats why went for the big one.

    From an MSE update regarding Nationwide's package bank account account

    Possibly a great many over 70s have had some sort of health issue and are paying an extra premium anyway so now they will be paying n additional £65 on top.

    "Nationwide is to lower the maximum age covered by its packaged bank account travel insurance from 75 to 70, while raising the surcharge paid by older customers from £50 to £65.
    At the moment, its FlexPlus packaged bank account customers under the age of 75 are covered by the insurance, while over-75s can pay an extra fee of £50 a year to get the cover.

    But from 3 January 2019, only customers under the age of 70 will have travel insurance included, and over-70s will pay a higher annual fee of £65"

    Good for a spending spree,
    Getting some things for free,
    It was easy as I,2,3
    Or even A,B,C,
    Once you found the key.

    Whatever your sexuality,
    Prefer coffee or tea,
    Prosecco or a Chablis
    Mature Cheddar or Brie,
    Any Butter or ghee,

    Saved you many rupee
    That's enough from me
    So it's RIP

    :T Loving that JTS.

    Evening peeps

    Hope everyone is warm, happy and well. Hugs to those not so.

    Hope the move goes well Missy Bubbles.
