Good morning all, cold and grey here, been forced into putting the heating on as it was only 10 degrees in the kitchen and my legs were cold! Mind you, would not have bothered if the sun was out.

and bear in mind it might take about 4 months to reach payable

SD loo paper comes in plain brown very large but feather light boxes - OH thought he was collecting something very interesting last Friday, the utter disappointment when I finally got them open and it was just more loo paper

Only 4 months? I've been waiting since April for my house insurance to come payable :mad:

Probably stating the obvious, but with the current run on high value APGs, you will hit your £100 limit quickly ... so keep track of the total (probably 4 x £20+ on one account to avoid losing any of your total).

Remember the APG uses Email as the identifier and needs a postcode to set up ... but it needn’t be your postcode . Personally, I don’t use my home account (linked with credit card) for anything other than C&C.

Note that the Dove Shea is N/A against M:

1x Dove Shea Butter Beauty Cream Hand Wash (250ml) £1.50 N/A

In fact...

I've bought the flamin' wrong one haven't I?:o:o:mad: Should have been Dove Silk! I know what is to blame for this - that's the shop where the Shea was bought before and failed. I had Shea on my mind as a result of that, from a few weeks ago, and now, with it on my mind, I've bought the item that fails:(:rotfl::rotfl:. So, it's now one-all:p:laugh:. My fault really as not having it on my mind as the one to avoid.

Galaxy Advent Calendar at least works, and an Advent Calendar has the benefit that it stops people taking chocolates and eating them immediately after I've bought it! I just knew, if I did a T comp. shop, I would have a fail. I also did a shop against M - watch that one work perfectly as I much prefer the safe comparison against M, totally guaranteed to work, as opposed to my risky, failure T shops.

Btw, the Galaxy Calendar is already picking up £2 for M. I don't know how they get that - probably have had full price SELs in their main aisle even if the item is out at the front at many of their stores with £1 offer label on Monday. Notice I didn't try this vs M:rotfl:.

Oh well, I have a different handwash now, so more variety, even if much more expensively. And I have got another voucher to add to the lower one than should have been that I've got from this shop, so it will have to work that way.

We got the dove (and avoided the shea) but in our mr a there was no sel about them being 342 even though they were at checkout - not sure if this might mean they are going off 342 soon?

No I wouldn’t worry - they enforce the limit on your account and set the rules. I just don’t enter shop receipts on my main account as I keep that clean for C&C (so rarely used - particularly since August when my online apg vouchers did not turn up ).

Now if family members are playing too ... .
