    oh lenny almost totally random but yes dh army......u asked the other day
  • Blimey skint - youare right - about time as well!!

    My battle with pigsback is almost done - I have been chasing 2750 points for ages now and they have credited the 2000 today, they promised the 700 within 24 hours a few days back but they aren't on there yet (I've emailed to chase again!) and I guess I'll get the others 'whenever'. However, with the 1750 points I got from buying my ticket to Bunny's tomorrow through south west trains and a few other sign ups, as soon as the 700 hit my account, I'll have 5000 points!!!!!!!!:T :T :T

    That's enough for £50 in Boots vouchers, or £50 for John Lewis, or £50 at Pizza Hut..........mmmmmm............pizza.....:rotfl:

    its got to be pizza
  • £50 worth of pizza.................mmmmmmm..........I should be sensible really and use them for presents. That was the whole point of saving them.

    I do have a slight confession of naughtyness. My OH has not had house insurance for nearly 2 years. When his last policy was up for renewal he asked me to get pries for cheaper cover, which I did. He never bothered and I've reminded him every 3 or 4 months since to sort something out. He is at work during the day and here at night - it is very silly not to have insurance!!! Anyway. I got all assertive and told him that he had to get some as we were going to be away for 9 days and to leave the house that long was just mad. He asked (again!!!!) for the best prices. He kicked and screamed like a kid (not literally!) 'I don't want to pay that much' even though I'd spent all evening finding the best prices. I just told him to pick one of the cheapest 2 and he went for Halifax (£185 for buildings and contents) and told me to use his card to pay for it all in one go.

    My confession?? I went through Quidco and didn't tell him....that's £55 for the food budget at some point in the future .....I was determined he was going to choose one that had cashback.....;)
