Ooh naming our shops......erm, this is hard, our house is on a corner so can i be 'Lynn's Corner Shop' please.

Although my stash isnt doing well yet, ive been to both our local 1id1's first thing 3 days running to get some of the beans and they havent had any, Ive got 2x4 packs still from Mr S which were on offer a couple of weeks ago and two fabric conditioners so have started my stash with that

Im going to join the grocery challenge for Feb, hopefully this will all help me stick to a budget

If your stuck for beans i know theyre not as cheap but the c00p has them for £1.27 for 4 x

oooh a name for my little shop - will put my thinking cap on. My store is starting to get some stock but I haven't ran out of anything yet to buy from it - lol

Was in Mr S and they have canned pulses on offer 5 tins for £2.00 - yesterday I bought 20 tins thinking the cost would be £10 but no it was £8.96 so some other discount kicked in - I bought a general mix of the tins, today I went back and bought 8 tins of the most expensive tins the mixed pulses £1.22 so I saved a lovely £8.22. The offer is only on the pulses in water, I am almost tempted to go back for some more tomorrow as we love adding these into veggie stews and chillis !!!

c
Mr M's website is pants, so I can't update that as you can't tap in to search and it doesn't work on mysupermarket grrr.

I totally agree - wish they were included on my supermarket website - it would make life so much easier.

It is nice to see lots of people doing this and a big thank you Kerri I really appreciate all you do :T:T:T

Right thinking cap on for a name

Had to do a mad dash to c0op for . . . yep . . baked beans :rotfl: had completely run out :eek: so bought the 2 x 4 pack of heinz ones for £3, plus me staff discount = £2.70 removed one from my stockpile so owe purse 3 28p

Wish I could buy the branston ones at that price but DH absolutely hates them and just always knows when I try to change from heinz, think its all the bloomin sugar and stuff in there

Hating this new mse design am now on 125% page magnification just to make the page look right so all your comments are HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE!!
