    Thanks Sophiesmum

    Yes the points slowly add up as there are usually only a few points on each - sometimes just the one. Customer services only allow 2 receipts with points to be added per day and must not be over 2 weeks old. I normally only pop to Tescos once a week as it's a good 10 minute drive to get there.

    Sold my Ebay item listed less than 1 hour ago so off to package it up. :D
    Tesco points: 101 (£21.50, £19.50, £7.50, £21 & £5)
    Boots points: £0.28
    Pigsback points: 715 (4 xBoots£10 & 1 xPizzaHut£10, 2 x £10 clothing vouchers)
    Mutual points: 3417 (redeemed 8250)
    Rpoints:redeemed 28925 points)Cashbag:£8.91(£20)

    OMG :eek: :eek: I think i would rather starve :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Good luck to your OH with the job:D

    Thanks sophiesmum. He's been out of work for 4 weeks now so we really really really need something like yesterday.

    He's got another 2 interviews tomorrow but for all the ones he's been to so far he is either over qualified or doesn't have enough experience :mad:

    Hi Sophiesmum, yes i am studying with the O.U. It's my third or fouth year and am doing a social science course too. I'm doing D218 Social policy power and diversity, or something like that. Know what you mean about discipline, i seem to catch up at the weekend and then fall back behind again during the week when i always seem to be busy with something else. Am only doing 60points this year as i hope to start a diploma in counseling in September!!

  • This will be my 4th year too:D After these two courses (providing I pass them that is!) I just need 30 points for my hons degree.
    I usually start the courses oct but was due to have my hysterectomy so had a couple of months break til feb. Funny enough I missed doing the work:rolleyes: .

    I'm always playing catch up when assignments are due:rolleyes: and always end up doing them two days before the deadline:eek: but get through somehow by the end of the course:D

    It will feel strange when I haven't got courses to do:confused: . I may do something else for "fun" then:D

  • Hi all,
    for me today it has been:
    • piggy clicks
    • online banking,
    • made a shopping list and didn't deviate from it
    • spent nothing at lunch
    • turned the central heating thermostat down a couple of notches

    Ha ha...!:rotfl: Thanks, Headoutthesand, that made me laugh...:p What can I say, I am a vegetable freak!!:rolleyes: (Sorry...but it really is nice - you should try it! :o:D;))

    Hope hubby has some good luck with his interviews - I have been in the position of being overqualified/not having the relevant experience and I know that it is very frustrating and no fun!:mad:

    OK, something went wrong there with my quote... :confused:

    Just to clarify, I am laughing at Headoutthesand wanting to starve rather than eat my chickpea and spinach curry :p, not at her husband's troubles with the interview situation.
