    Many thanks Chris, got my candles :) People must have seen your GIN display, and decided to buy them all, as I had to dig tight at the back for my G.

    Also got the Vaseline tins, but stupid me lost a couple of £ on the APG as bought a pack of matchmakers for xmas, £1 cheaper than teskies. I also bought 4 of those small cans of coke, as had seen them posted on here. Whats the score with those please anyone, as I lost 15p a can against teskies.

    :T JTS :T:T

    I have been allocated the task of trying to find cheap accommodation near Cancer Centre as the place in Porthcawl is closed over Christmas until 15th Jan.

    We need to find an Airbnb or similar from the 27th Dec to 15th Jan - 19 nights.
    Travelodge comes in at £1050 but at least you have privacy & own bathroom. Can not find any discount codes :( Do you think if I rang them they may offer a discount?
    One Airbnb does have an ensuite but run by a single man.... :o

    Tomorrow she goes for PEG & MRI - staying in Heath for 4 days

    Is it possible to specify ensuite on the airbnb search, I could never find a way to search on this obvious criteria.

    Picasso the Mullers have increased to 50p now instead of 35p.on S.
    I guess that means it is just as effective to do corners now :) - how much does it work out for each one now?
    50p x 9 x 10% = 45p
    (68p - 50p) x 9 = £1.62
    £3 - £1.62 - 45p = 93p / 10 = 9p each?

    I went to sada this evening and felt lost - I had just come in to pick up a c&c and do the droid and had no plan for glitching and hadn't remembered to being any APGs - I muggled my way round picking up a few bits as I went.

    Today's wins - 2 free One Stop ciders from CS, £3 costa and £3 and £5 Greggs a some YS rolls. The droid seems to have really slowed down of late.
    I think....
