Moved to Blue Shirts.

Only when we get vouchers in the Courier as far as i'm aware.
But there is an Argos site,can't rem the url,that if you put RM or summin at the end you get some stuff cheaper.
But from what i rem,it's all the s**t no one wants to buy and a load of crap.

And Homebase is expensive anyway,even with the discount,better of going to B&Q or somewhere like that.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
