only if you buy them on the 24th, but the chips might get cold. You could probably pay on the 24th and pick them up on the 25th.

Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life; define yourself

I think you're fairly safe on that one <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/smile.gif">

I had to buy a packet of ciggies though <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/frown.gif"> I'm sorry you guys, but my children's lives wouldn't have been worth living if I had run out, & I forgot, otherwise I'd've bought them yesterday.

You could have cheated and borrowed someone some money which happens to be the same price as a pack of cigs. Then the other peoson could have bought them for you. Derrrr Remember that for next year <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/wink.gif">
