    Good morning paw sniffers:D

    Just had a quick skim back. Looks like more peeps have found their way into the train.

    I'm patiently waiting for my extra offer email for more points.
    Funnily enough I've had 1000 added this morning but the app doesn't go back far enough for me to check what they are. I'm guessing Virgin:D

    I'm another one totally disinterested in Black Friday. I need nothing:)

    usual tassimo glitch (new machine code lol)

    GET 25% OFF ALL TASSIMO DRINKS WHEN YOU SPEND £45 + £10 new machine code + free delivery

    i got 10 packs of cappuccino down to about £2.50 per pack, delivered. i know tm can get the black coffees down to less.

    these milk + coffee ones are seldom in the 3 for £10 offers. so a brilliant price at £2.50 ish normally about £4.50 - £5 each

    just editing to add quidco

    should now be after 6% quidco and £2.50 bonus quidco - £4 which makes it £2.10 per pack yippee thats an elite price

    Zippy, from Hukd, Enjoy extra 5% on top of 25% Tassimo BLACK FRIDAY discount. (code on hukd)

    I will set Black Friday off :cool:

    Went into town yesterday so decided to go for :( shoes to Edward Meeks while in town;

    I got down to 2 pairs undecided which to buy .

    Assistant had asked a couple times if I was ok after about 20 pairs shoes on floor in 2 sizes each style :o

    So I told her.

    She told me if I went back today for shoes Black Friday I would get 20% off which io decided to buy.

    She then goes away and I got down to 2 pairs clarkes and hotter and was undecided so I ask assistant when she came back if she could save them both til today and I would decide :)

    Assistant said you don't have to come back we will knock 20% off now don't want you coming back in your state.

    I ask her price both pairs up and decided :money: would have both pairs I needed decent shoes cheaper ones I buy don't last so I end up spending more in long run ,

    So will ask DS which he thinks I should wear for :(

    Is TM away? is it her birthday? i know its soon

    It is today bubbs and I'm off work:T
    I am to be found cooking up a storm in the kitchen as we have a Hyacinth Bouquet soiree tomorrow evening:D

    I did a shop in Lidl yesterday evening to use my Mail £10 off. It's the largest food shop that I've done anywhere in years. After the £10 off, it came down to £40.51 .....carefully planned to within an inch of its life:rotfl: So I then asked if I could use the £5 off £40 from the instore mag and she said no.....very bluntly:rotfl:

    I was dying to say " just try please" :rotfl:

    I found it chaotic at the checkout. She was too fast for me to pack properly and there was no area to pack anything. I'd have to up my game if I continued to shop there:rotfl:

    She served 2 people after me as I was still packing:rotfl:

    And they don't take Amex:o

    Oh dear:rotfl:
