    checked in store scanning at £1.15:(

    Some one mentioned the Highland spring 12 pack scanning at 82p on here a couple of week ago but scanning at £3.87 in my store unfortunately!

    Have just got two packs of the Highland Spring in my store, and they were marked at 82p and scanned at 82p. These are handy for filling up from the big bottles.

    They also had the 6 large Evian water packs with SEL of 91p. I didnt bother with that because someone actually fills our large empties with Buxton Spring water - which is free,

    Hey guys I have just found a till spit in Tesco for £12 off £80 spend! Also have a £4 off £30 and a £6 off £30 and the helping hand voucher too! Could I use them all together on an £80 shop?

    Would be good to try on a 'dummy run' when the helping hand comes into date. Get a few items of clothing (so as not so much for staff to put back), see what they will accept/scans through, then 'forget' your switch. If it works get the shopping you really wanted another time.

    i would try this but I haven't got any S&S and don't seem to get them lately - only got the £10 off £80 one.

    And also I think they've discontinued Value Custard Creams! :mad:

    ETA:

    Or:
    Skin
    Immerse bonded areas in warm, soapy water. Peel or roll skin apart; a spatula or teaspoon handle or even a pencil will help. Remove cured adhesive with warm, soapy water (may take several applications). Fingernail polish remover with an acetone base has also been successful for removal of cured adhesive from skin.

    Celebrate ... you're a popular lady! Your inbox is full!

    sorry
    no i'm not popular just lazy, alot of old ones needed deleting, done, sorry!!
    Can't say it better than Issyc just did, Thank you Celebrate :)

    And at risk of sounding like I am setting up somemutual appreciation society (:D), you are one of my fav elite contributors. So much energy and enthusiasm when you have to be living an incredibly majorly full-on life with all your commitments and everything that is going on - take my hat off to you. xx

    lol i am knackered most of the time and wonder why, my OH would love me to be a kept woman but he knows working keeps me out of T's, he's worried what a ban might do my reputation if it ever became public :eek::eek::eek::eek:, my friends and family see me as the tight but generous (I think you MSE'ers will know exactly what i mean with that-i won't pay more than i have to for anything, however when it comes to giving gifts i am always splashing out on friends and family -if not just to reduce the stock levels:o:o:o)

    by the way i'm not out to win friends or influence people, i just say it the way it is;) got me into alot of trouble over the years though:(

    well i'm home and no shopping today:(
    lovely kid's party at xscape, had lunch in pizza express, couldn't find the voucher (thanks call of trouty) until the end of the meal,

    voucher deal was pizza, starter and desert- had already ordered a cheapo magherita pizza and an expensive one

    waitress thought i was hilarious asking for the garlic bread at the end of the meal (beacuse of the voucher):rotfl::rotfl:
    then she bought 6 spoons out with our one slice of fudge cake and ice cream:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    then bill came and they had included the cheapest pizza in the offer not the dear one-technical issue

    so waitress talks to manager and he alters the bill for us, small saving but every little helps

    OH had left me with his CC while he fetched the card and couldn't for the life of me remember his pin, so got a warning on the 3rd attempt that it was my last try or else:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

    waitress looked at me like i was totally mental:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    knew i should have taken sandwiches:A:A:A:A:A
