    Zippy, had you ordered flowers from Waitrose florist before? I am wondering if this is why they confirmed one of my orders (strangely they had not wrote to say that they had cancelled my other orders).

    :):):):)

    1st time of ordering, also never ordered a grocery shop.

    Remember the taste inc chicken fillets that cod were giving away free a while back? Well they!!!8217;re running Facebook and Twitter voucher giveaways (from email received today). Can!!!8217;t post linky but a quick search should find the correct account.

    well despite my saying that it was well worth a go but that they would have 2321942 gazillion entries via facebook and twitter for the meagre 200 vouchers on offer - I got a direct message today to say I've won one :j

    Sadly its coming in the post so I don't think it will come in time to be of use for the COS offer.

    The moral of the tail though is even with insurmountable odds its still worth a go :)

    Has anyone any suggestions as to what I can add to the Waitrose list for this weekend

    Ideally
    things for cashback - free or almost free
    things I might find a coupon for - free or almost
    things that work out so cheap after cashback or MOC that if no one eats them they can go into the foodbank collection

    Just going to go through the MSE MOC list now in the hope of finding something I've not printed off.

    So far I've only got 3 things but no back up items
    Lurpak - for GJ as its then as cheap as own brand after cashbook
    Venus - my store apparently does sell them - MOC
    Laughing cow - for shopimumms
    (plus the usual latte, magazine, newspaper to get to a tenner)

    It is basically a GC for £2.45 to spend today only.
    20p off for using travel mug.
    What Costa sizes mean:
    http://www.plainenglish.co.uk/news/947-our-coffee-cup-overflows-with-jargon.htl


    Possible prices:
    https://uk.menuwithprice.com/costa-coffee-menu/


    So for hot drinks using own mug you get £2.65 value against what you buy.


    If you want anything else but more expensive, pay the difference.


    And no harm and trying 2 GCs at the same time, they can only say no.


    Watch out, I bought a coughee priced at £1.95 and the suspected manager serving me asked how much Wontwo voucher was for, I answered honestly "up to £2.45" .I watched the till display and the cheating so and so amended the price to £2.45 .
    If someone does that to me again I am going to ask for receipt to put the frighteners on them and maybe mumble "trading standards" :rotfl::rotfl:

    Why watch out...? So long as they process our order why should we care what price they put in the till? The voucher is dead whether £2.45 is used or not (and the tills recently changed which means they can no longer tell).
