    Also on CoS the free little bags of hippeas have reappeared - is this the 3rd time now? I always check the stocks in my little Co-op now everytime I go in, in readiness incase they reappear again. I might be the only person buying them.

    I asked this morning if they were part of the lunchtime deal in the Co-op but sadly the girl said they were not. Also on COS is the chilled starbucks coffee for half price so my thoughts were sandwich, starbucks, hoppeas for £3.70 - minus £1 for hippeas and 70p for starbucks. Lunch for £2 - sadly not :(

    Not that the hippeas get eaten, I just put them in the food bank collection - all of my free Tetley squash will br going as well.

    At least COS are back on form again this morning, approving receipts within the hour instead of taking a day and a half.

    I had a right do with the Happy Downss at the weekend. Firstly when I got home on Saturday lunchtime I uploaded my own receipt. But looking at OHs the till boy had ripped the bottom of the receipt so it had no date on. No problem I though as I could just return a set to my local Mr T and then at CS just do a return and rebuy.
    Before we went back out I was putting cans in the fridge when I realised I had green ones which were out of date with April use by dates stamped on the bottom. Then I had a rethink and instead put all of the green cans in a bag to return and the reds in the fridge.

    In store the girl didnt even look at my receipts she just did a refund for me, took the bag of green ones from me and gave me a new bag for life - so I didnt have to explain about the dateless receipt etc.

    I then got another set for OH. Back home I started uploading receipts. The app is on Little Len but it was playing up, shutting down as soon as you take a photo. Its also transferred over to OHs new fangled phone which I cant even open up so that wasnt an option. So in exasperation I instead downloaded the app onto the ipad - it had to do an older version as the ipad is very decrepit. I didnt even realise this was possible or that their was an ipsd version of the app but the app looks very good. It took a bit of a faff to get the receipts uploaded as they didnt show straight away on the activty page as they normally do so to be on the safe side I did them twice.
    Inevitably in the midst of this confusion I uploaded one receipt twice to one account so duplicates were rejected and I was uploading agaon on Sunday.
    And on Sunday morning I got a rejected email saying my own receipt was folded and unreadable - it wasnt as it onky had HDs on it. I uploaded it again.
    FInally all COS HD receipts were accepted by this morning to the right accounts on the right devices and the totals all updated :T

    I am wondering now what the next big thing will be - hopefully something with cashback and a MOC as well :)

    I am hoping for washing powder/liquid, I am running very low, and it all seems so expensive.:(
