    While we have a shiny new thread can I pick some brains regarding difficult things on my gift list

    Apparently there are cocktail sticks with a pineapple on the top - reusable ones - possibly metal. Has anyone seen or heard of such things?
    Also gold cutlery sets - apparently you can get them anywhere eg Wilkos, Clas Olsen ... again I've never heard of or seen suchlike.
    And she needs 2 sets as they are still using the in-laws first cutlery set dated sometime in the 1960s

    I've also got to get Nigella at my table and Nadia family favourites but I am hoping that these will appear on a daily deal sometime in the next 3 weeks ...

    Yes these are extracts from Eldest childs wish list and she always gives me the most peculiar stuff to find ... worst still the more I get her I also have to get the same number of things for her OH, Eldest son and his GF so they all have the same number of parcels to open...






    just seen this set in a magazine.they are oos but maybe some in store.

    Fair enough. The mrs is on vodafone so I'll wait until she's home to have a look on her phone

    Good idea. Only freebie so far is a cookie :rotfl: Wait until we see if the Costalot will be a regular thing, if it is, it will pay for itself after 4 cuppies.

    My take on it....for what it's worth:D

    Have T&C's been broken? If not how can it be fraud?

    Or are we talking about what someone thinks is morally correct and where you draw your line.

    This is where I get confused.

    Let's take the train tickets for example. Do you draw your line at one ticket or 100 tickets? It what point are you ripping the pants out of the promotion?

    If it's ok to do one, then it's probably ok to do 2 or 3. What about 7 or 17? Or 70.
    And who is the person who decides whether it's ok to do 10 as it's a nice round number but not to do 11? Who gives that person the right to say what level is acceptable for someone else?

    Is fraud still fraud even if it's just a teeny tiny bit?

    What about returning clothes on the double up? What if something genuinely doesn't fit......are we saying you shouldn't return it?

    Minefield.....but .............

    Let he who is without sin cast the first stone I say.
