Had two strokes of luck today with .com.

Firstly ordered 3 x Ruby Millie Vanity bags yesterday morning. They turned up today a little bit battered. Phoned up to complain hoping to get some compensation in points and the bloke I spoke to refunded the whole amount and told me to keep them.

Secondly, I ordered a Scalextrix set and two Lego sets the day before. One Lego set was cancelled and received the others. For some unknown reason, got an e-mail saying I was refunded for the total of the two.

I must remember to place more orders. :rotfl:

The old GWP is. Pollsdolls got 2 the other day:) I haven't been able to locate any...will keep looking though:) I don't think the new GWP would scan without an MF purchase. No one has reported getting it anyway.

BTW the black box gwp for max factor was right on the top of the display. About 6 foot high. So not patently obvious. Looks like they had been put there out of the way. (This was in Liverpool city centre) I had to stand on my toes to get them. So look up rather than looking around on the MF counter and look for this.

This happened with my Ruby and millie set too. The guy told me to keep it and he'd refund the £6.25 back to paypal. Thing is though only the eyeshadows were ruined..everything else is fine.I called cs thinking i would have to send it back to either get a replacement or refund. But more or less got it for free lol!

Thank you:beer:

My goal is to get 5000 (£50) a month for as little spend as possible (probably not sustainable but got to have a goal). In January I got 5881:j:j

Today....1st Feb I got 1919 in one hit.

I am so considering signing my sons up to the PC and Health clubs....and poor boys will end up having virtual babies at this rate :rotfl:

I just wish I was as focussed and targetted when it comes to losing weight:o

This is my goal as well, I try to get close to what I spend in points, this is usually achieved:)
The regular SA's always give me a smile when they see me coming( probably wishing I'd "P" off:rolleyes: ).
I want to save roughly £50 a month in points so that I can just go in and blitz my christmas shopping in a couple of goes.
January's total was £53.24( 1000 added by.com)

Could anyone tell me if the £1 off wys £4 on healthcare (from HC Club) will work on the pre-3for2 total?

TIA

I have never managed to pass one of these yet. Everything I assume is healthcare I am told is not. Looks like they have very strict guidelines, even refused it on E45 cream. Was told its only on medicines and coughs and flu stuff/vitamins etc. I was also refused it on strepsils. I was told this on the pharmacy counter. So I have given up on them now. :mad:

I'm glad I'm not the only one. I also try and get the points as close to (or more than;)) the total value of shop. The only times I don't mind paying a bit extra is when I really do buy essentials, eg. when I buy the nappies for my daughter - providing I've got some extra points on them then I'm not too bothered.

My DH is taking me to Boots again tomorrow....two days in a row is amazingly patient for him. However the points are probably going to be limited to less than 500 cos I had a fab day today.

Does anyone know how long the 1/3 off soap & glory will be on for? thanks in advance
