Dunno. My kids had it to a lesser degree over the last few weeks but was gone the next day. I’m run down and have ME so get everything worse. Will see how it goes. Have taken 174928261g of vit c so will see if that helps. Just feeling sorry for myself. Xxxx

Well hope it clears soon, but my hubby had an eye infection last week and had to have antibiotics to clear it . We had to ring 111, was a fantastic service:T:T

Does everyone know that Aussie shampoos etc are on offer in Morrison's for £2 or in Superdrug for £2.07 - it was mentioned on the dark side last night

I expect though that everyone has enough shampoo to wash the hair of a small village for a lifetime

So I went into Superdrug today for a Aussie shampoo for coloured hair and presented it at the till alongside my blue NUS card which took 21p off.

I also had the SSM printed off £1.50 coupon for any Aussie :j

Final bill was 36p :T

Thank you! I still have an SSM coupon so I'll have to go to Morrisons next week.

I logged onto my coop app to update which local cause I donate to only to realise I'm signed up to digital coupons.

It turns out I should be selecting 2 offers to load to my card eg 50p off milk, 50p off £4, etc

That explains why none have been printing out for a while

When the heck did I sign up to this and how did I forget ?!

I've been using this for a while - I think it's a trial that you'll have had to download via a test flight app. That's how I ended up with it anyway

It confuses the staff in my local co-op every time I swipe my card :rotfl::rotfl:

Does anyone know - with Amex Gold membership points, is the exchange rate different for buying Amazon giftcards rather than account top up? I have 47k of points, which I would think is £235 top up but the Amazon site is only showing £212?

I need to cash out and cancel before renewal tomorrow :eek:.

Many thanks

1 - why didn't you stop once you had the 3 month 5% finished and thus about 24k points, close the gold and start with another new customer card 5% offer and also be able to be a new customer for the gold again sooner.

2 - surely the cash out is to your nectar account where they can then be doubled up to be worth £470 - not too late, takes about 3 days to transfer them out to nectar

I am now a little worried about you Anon....

Awww bless him. Although no point replying to him at the moment michaels, I think his internet has just been cut of and the children are rebelling!

Well I am VERY please with myself, (did not want to mention this earlier) I have just managed to avoid who won bake off for about 3 weeks and managed to watch the final on catchup without knowing the winner, makes it so much better. I fell behind when I went on my hols.

3 weeks is seriously impressive, I guess the show is not quite as high profile as a couple of seasons ago when Nadia was all over our screens.

I am wasting money not switching broadband providers, I am just wondering if fiddling with affiliate links will let me get QC plus the cheaper monthly rate BT offer and higher value gift card and then of course pay 12 months up front to save another 12 quid and then hope for a get out of jail (contract) free price rise once the gift cards and cashback have been banked….

Alternative option is to see if a new switch to 1 month notice SSE from my name into DWs name would trigger the £150 new customer QC.
