    Has anyone used their Princes Fillers MOC yet?

    It has a QR code at the bottom and I wondered if that had to be scanned at the till as well.

    IT was a struggle to get one printed off the other day and now I've got one in the post as well which is idential in all ways to my print off :mad: So I am going to have to grit my teeth and shred the print off :(

    Good morning everyone.

    I stopped buying for family years ago, I got sick the same old same old, walking round not knowing what to get people, for it never to be seen in their house or used, or sometimes even regifted back to us a year or so later.

    I havnt bought a single present yet, really cant get in the mood for christmas this year.

    I used 2 tuna and 2 fruit ones the other days in T and all scanned ok. Are we not suppose to use more than 1? OH has just printed out a load more for me :eek:

    ETA SA had to input price for the fruit ones but cant recall if he did the same for the tuna ones. Got 40p overage for x 2 of the fruit ones :)

    My adult lot are just getting glitched gift sets. Only child I have to buy for is 8 year old niece but a few of us club together to get her something more substantial rather than bitty pieces. This was at the request of her parents

    Actually the thing I like most about christmas is "the box of tat"....I have one from OH,he has one from me and we collectively source one for DS...

    it's just that...lots of little bits and bobs...the more free the better and each gift inside the box should be more than about £2 or so...and if it came via a voucher all the better!!!
    Useful things,useless things...but christmas wouldn't be the same without it.


    We don't even have a main present each any more...if theres anything we want we'll ask throughout the year...it works far better that way
