    Snap.....lovely to see you here:T:T:T

    Thinking of you and your sister and pleased that you are having lots of adventures.

    I think Seedless is winking in the photo. Beautiful little moggies and so lucky to have found a forever home

    Well I was until today and definitely thought I wouldn't find any now it's been on HUKD. :eek:

    Neither of my extras seem to have any sign of them. And when I logged on to my Ts account last week they showed as available for £2.50 :eek:

    Have you got a superstore you can look in DD? Fingers crossed for you.

    None that are particularly easy to get to on the bus from work :o

    Plenty of expresses i could work my way around but none of the bigger ones are on a direct route. Time is not on my side in the evenings or weekends :(

    I put everything in the washer before I went to work this morning. Leaving mr TM to sort it out.

    He thought it would need another spin. He then put everything out to dry. It all aired over the radiators tonight.

    Just checked and it hasn't even been washed:rotfl:

    I forgot to even turn the washer on:rotfl:

    Did he really not notice how dry it was :eek:

    Snap, so glad you are managing to do a few things with your sister, this time is so precious xx

    Have to admit, I would love to see a murmuration, must be amazing!

    As for TS driving to Surrey all the time, I simply walk there :eek:

    Morning all!

    I drove past our old Poundworld yesterday and it's been replaced by a "Bargain Buys", which appears to be from the same group as PW.

    Does anyone have one of these near them, are they worth a look?

    I've been looking for the loo rolls in my Tesco, but nothing so far. Here's hoping some Robins fly South for the winter ;):p

    Has anyone else signed up for the Be My Eye app which was mentioned in the "up your income" bit of the forum?

    I signed up the other day, it involves mystery shopping which I feel a bit self conscious doing, but I know some of the Elite have no shame wandering around various stores taking photos :rotfl::rotfl:

    I pop into Bargain Buys in a small town.
    It's great for pet food, 49p quality greetings cards some Hallmark, the usual cheap crisps, sweets, sauces, £1.99 nice n easy hair colours etc......

    Morning peeps.

    It is a shame you have to choose between a coffee or a movie :(.

    Good to see Costa return but coffee is now costing £1 not free :(.

    Are peeps doubling up with all their points?

    I often wonder if it will be the last one so think I should make the best of it. Then the saver in me kicks in and I feel I should keep some until next year.

    Wondering what to do:think::think::think:

    I ve done some but I've also got some left.

    I think these toilet rolls are a way of getting folk into their shops and I bet Asda are noticing a reduction in foot fall too.

    Good Morning all :)

    Also.... I had an email from Sains about a points boost - spend 2000 points between 1st and 24th Dec (which I now don't have following Double up!) and then collect 300 points for every day that you shop in January.

    There doesn't appear to be a minimum spend to qualify for the 300 points, so I might be buying 31 Freddos in January!
