    I still don't get the pork glitch. I know they compare favourably with Asda, but don't they still work out at about 50p per little steak?

    Yes they do - but they are really thick, lean, well matured steaks and are an absolute steal at that price!

    I have to have them that way, as when you open them the sauce is at the bottom and pushes every bean out of the tin, it's the only thing that gets stored the wrong way.

    I too store beans upside down easier to get out of the tin :D

    As you can tell I've been to Asda this morning, very wet and wild and windy and the place was manic, full of screaming offspring.

    On the plus side though I did collect some lovely receipts. 2 have come back as not enough items so I think I am just going to send them to Asda and dispute this. Of the others I've compiled some loveley comparison lists so I hope I've given people some ideas for their weekend shops.

    3 of the ones I collected today gave me APGs, in total nearly £10 worth :T Best I've ever done, 3 APGs and one is over £4 s worth. So already I've got more back then I spent.

    I did 2 shops myself to use up a motley collection of six small APGs and some MOCs. Also in our store you have to pay for parking (its a town centre store) but if you spend £10 and hand in a parking ticket from last time they take 50p off your bill. So you have to split your shopping into £10 lots.

    So just waiting for my own receipts to comapre later.

    My family tree on my father's side has been done by a relative.
    3 brothers came over from France in 1562 & settled in Brockenhurst. Everyone with our surname is related :o as there are so few of us :)
    My Grandmother's tree is Portland through & through :D
    My Mum's tree is horse dealers from Devon :)

    I was captivated by Samantha Womack's Who Do You Think You Are? - brilliant :T:T
    I've sort of promised I will take my nephew & his best friend to Portaventura next year :o:o we had such a lovely day yesterday it sort of spilled out - I definitely would love to take them but I should of booked 1 week ago as prices have gone up an extra £75 each :eek::eek:

    Mr S has own brand 6 jumbo rolls (400 sheets) for 1.96... I find them good quality and they last for ages.

    I agree, I topped up some of my Bavaria shops with a pack of those. ;)

    I did buy a pack of Ts own 18 toilet rolls for £6 last night found them in the seasonal aisle next to the 12 packs (9 with 3 extra free) for £3.99. They both work out about a £1 for 3 rolls so cheaper than Co ops Andex at £3.50 for 9. HTHs

    I had an accidental dtd today. I bought 3 kids activity books from tesco which were £3 each or on offer at 3 books for £5. Discount didn't come off so went to customer services and was given dtd. I paid £9 and got £8 back so it cost £1 for three activity books.

    I bought 2 hello kitty ones and a pirate one. The lady at cs scanned them all and it seems that it is the pirate one that is not actually in the offer even though it has a yellow sticker on it showing that it is included.

    Went to another store and they also had the pirate book with the yellow offer sticker on it so got another 3 books there too :)

    Also wombled a £4 off £30 till spit so all in all it was a good shopping trip!
