    I guess this means the crisps are still working, does ketchup remain the only trigger?

    I am very tempted to take my trigger yoghurt with me this arvo as we want more corners and the bigger sada which stocks them is an annoying distance away.

    Went to indy butcher to do small shop, got 4 £10+ items and were then told min £15 for credit card. Eventually they agreed to do 15, 15 and 12 but I guess I should have said why not round up to 50 and do 10 x 5, we would have paid effective 25 rather than 27 and they would have still made more even covering 5 x transaction cost. Sadly getting 5 off 15 rather than 5 off 10 made the meat pretty expensive but as they had already, cut, packaged and weighed everything out it seemed heartless to cancel the transaction when we found they would not do the £10 transactions :(

    Hi Michael. If it is any comfort, it only works once per shop per Amex card.

    I was rather pleased today since I had lunch in Tampopo and it counted as a small shop. Then I went to Rymans which also counts and after a lot of faffing about deciding that everything was incredibly expensive, even with the small shop bit, I bought some ink for my fountain pen and other bits. I'm hoping to do a few more shops tomorrow, convenience stores and a chemist. Last minute, I know, but RL has been a bit crazy.

    Evening all

    Missed the lovely boots glitch. Little one due this Wednesday as well although she has so many clothes we are already buying 6-9 months. But whilst over on the dark side I did buy 6 bottles of very being freixenet prosecco just before they went OOS again. Will share with N if she can't get any instore tomorrow.
    Also done a tesco food order for tomorrow. Just a few christmas bits and bobs. That's me done as away on Friday but will be earlier if little one puts in an appearance on schedule.
    Have dgd from Tuesday to Friday and Friday we go to disney on ice but if I need to go to Bedford earlier she will be going back up with me.

    Bear antics afoot, just need to work out how to add music.

    . I do think a chaise lounge is a good description of you though. Stylish yet comfortable and laid back :)

    May the odds be ever in your favour;)

    Received my sunlife £100 marks and spencer gift voucher only after paying second month's premium. First month's premium was free any way so lovely gift voucher for £4.00! Straight away cancelled the direct debit and will do email to them tomorrow cancelling policy. I did notice, however, after doing this that sunlife will give you a £100 gift voucher if you recommend somebody so may have slipped up here as could have recommended other half. Maybe of use to some other eliters though.
    Izzy - could you please tell me how much the vaseline sets work out please. Dont very often do apg for sets as have too much health and beauty courtesy of mr. tesco a few years back. TIA
