    Sorry, just another thought. Can I put any old sim in it? Or would I need data? That could complicate things and I'm not very tech savvy.

    Thank you

    I would think it needs data or a WiFi connection. I got a freedompop sim for free that includes 200MB data per month that I am using :).

    Visit their site and they sometimes have free postage and free activation offers (or go through the Check Availability page where you put in your email, don’t finalise the offer if there is a charge and they send a free trial offer for 2gb or whatever - sign up to that then cancel easily on their website all the paid for services immediately when the SIM arrives ;).

    I’m here every day and still can’t keep up:o There’s some great glitches at the moment so I hope you can take advantage of some of them. It might keep your Christmas shopping bill down:)

    I hope you are looking forward to Christmas with your lovely family:A

    It is not surprising we can’t keep up - long term glitches including toiletries, Droid prizes, Cashback apps, now Am3x shop small and I am still returning ill fitting electricals from the N3ctar promo :D.

    I am surprised I can fit work and family duties in :o.

    Went to 1stop to get my cider(s) and topped up one of the shops with friuit, toilet rolls etc to £10 and paid by amex. No email yet so guess 1 stop is definately not on the small shop list.
    Got all4one voucher from post office and already got email from amex for that one.

    Don’t write 1stop off just yet - last year not all gave email confirmation and their systems are flakey :(. I have done two 1stop shops (different stores) tonight with my Am3x to test for stores where i was successful in previous years - no emails as yet, but will report back.

    If they are in, they stock 12 Andrex for £4 which become good value at half price :).

    I now see it was some Pilgrim's Choice cheese that someone had mentioned earlier not Seriously Strong. The Pilgrim's Choice were/are £2 vs N/A but the Seriously Strong I had is comparing £2 vs £2 M. So that would seem the better of the two brands. I was just trying to find what I posted that I still have yet to do with the M list, as I didn't write it down on any of my papers. I have found my earlier post and it seems I am just to check if I have the Curly Wurlys on the list and check the status regarding the VO5 Matts etc.- whether they are in the 3 for 2 or whether they are off? (I didn't see them, against anywhere, on 3Dogs' list anymore?)

    I noticed someone mentioned the Always Discreet Incontinence Pads as being on the 3 for 2 and also was looking to see if that was vs M. I don't know which versions this is - is this the ones at individual £2.40 in A and, therefore, at least some of them, potentially vs £2 each for M (and T)? If it is, as it doesn't seem too much of a difference, it's fwiw and they aren't currently going onto the list. If it's some others, then I haven't been able to identify which specific products were being mentioned and therefore I am unable to put them onto the list as I don't know what you mean, so I don't know what the items are that I should be putting onto the list:rotfl:. If someone knows what is being referred to, please let me know.
