So annoying isn’t it ..
I've got on a price and open to offers. Then its just "how much do you want for it"
I’m having the same issue at the moment. Selling some of my sons old toys, a woman desperately wants it apparently! Arranged collection for Monday, so I rush home and she doesn’t turn up
So rearranged for today as I just want it gone, but I haven’t heard a peep. Feel like messaging just to personally call her a massive cock. I despise marketplacethese are the sort of ppl who haggle in Charity shops saying well youre getting it free
TBF I'm even annoyed at the pain thing.. (which if we were honest wasn;t stopping anyone from going to a high street and getting one box in every shop if they felt like it) it's the fact that a few months ago me, my flatmate and my friend all had colds. Off I trots to Wilko (other stores are available) hops on the old checkout with my 3 boxes of Lemsip a likes. - one each for each of us my being the one who could get to the shops during opening hrs.Oh no you can only have 2 says the sales assistant - its the old suicide prevention rule. Lets face it who is going to drink 30 lemsips . surely you would pee out most of it before it did any damage..
Isn't that only a UC loan anyway?My partners family.
They're all relatively well off. Certainly not rich by any means, but all work full time, own their own houses, pay bills, have holidays and buy nice things etc etc. So none of this is coming from misplaced assumptions, we spend a lot of time together and they don't exactly hide their lifestyles.
But his parents, siblings and their partners have all applied for government hardship/crisis payments and are encouraging us to do it too because it's free cash?! I'm so bleeping angry. They're all bragging about how they've got a free £100 or £200 cash. For essentially lying and saying they can't afford their bills...
This money is surely for people in actual CRISIS situations?? People who genuinely cannot pay their bills, no money in the bank and can't top their gas up or buy food for their kids.
Now they're all calling me daft and stupid for not taking the "free money" and just don't seem to have any comprehension of where I'm coming from
I love my partner, luckily he's nothing like his parents but Christ, I find it so difficult being a part of their life at times..
Wow Deez I had no idea.I am not saying that I don't agree with the legislation. I personally don't take pain or other medication because I dont like putting drugs in my body but it's amazing what affect it has had and thats a good thing.Ik this is the rant thread but I just want to point out that whilst the legislation which limits the number of packets of paracetamol you can buy may be irritating, it has actually massively reduced suicides by paracetamol overdose.
Obviously yes, if someone really does want to end their life then they will go to different shops to buy as much as they need, but in terms of the impulsive overdoses taken in a moment of extreme distress, this law really has prevented many deaths.

No, it's a grant that doesn't need to be paid back. Not sure if it's just a thing here in Wales? It's called the Discretionary Assistance Fund. It's definitely a flawed system, they don't ask many details. Don't need to provide any proof of any incomes or lack of funds. So definitely far too easy for people to take the piss but surely anyone with a functioning moral compass wouldn't feel right doing it..
Yes, Lemsip contains paracetamol and as it comes in powder form it’s definitely possible to OD on. You can take it without diluting it with water.
.that seems a little concerning, what if they end up checking?No, it's a grant that doesn't need to be paid back. Not sure if it's just a thing here in Wales?

Would you get done for fraud?!Just wanted to share a story that probably sheds a bit of light .
It really does seem like you need to go when they stock it, as when you go in the evening or weekend so many things are gone. Now the veg situation as well, couldn't get stuff I wanted yesterday at all!
Hot tip - try discount codes such as TEST, TEST123 etc. Sometimes web devs use those to test the setup but they can be forgotten.
