    actually bubbs there are 5 palmolives. but 3 at 85p, one at a £1 and one at £1.40
    they will all work but ill let you work out the final price of the others :D:D
    so tomorrow you could get 6 of the 85p ones = £5.10, mag £1.20, cappuccino £2.25 mail for £1.70 and pay £2.38 or less depending on rounding

    I have to 'dipose' of OH's things secretly as he will never get rid of anything... everything always has a purpose until I bin it!

    Afternoon all.
    Same here sm. I've got devious and hide stuff away. If it isn't asked for in 6 months it goes in the bin or charity shop bag.

    One shirt of OHs I did not particularly like and he carelessly left it on the dining room table :D
    He does realise there is a rule that anything left on the dining room table is destined for boxing and/or bagging for the next charity shop run - he does not realise this rule also applies to him and any belongs he leaves on the table.

    so after a week of the shirt being strewn on the dining room table I saw :mad: and it did indeed get put into a charity bag. Unfortunately on the afternoon we were doing the charity shop run OH spotted it between the back door and the car and it was removed from the charity bag where it had taken up residence

    He said "my favourite shirt!" - obviously not

    Then he pinned it on the washing line and there it remained in wind, rain, hail and snow for about 6 months - I was waiting to see how long it was before he re claimed his favourite shirt :rotfl:
    Eventually at the start of Feb when we were going up to York for the weekend he finally rescued it from the washing line :rotfl:

    Actually managed to get out in the garden this afternoon, finally edged the lawns. A bit of physical work does no end of good for the psyche.

    we have been to Chester today :j - excellent day out and we collected all the o2 freebies - walkers crisps from whsmith on the station, Thorntons chocs, free coke from Boots
    Also OH got his free coke from Greggs but his free birthday cake is not showing. I had neither - I wonder if there is a block on my app.
    And finished up in Piture and Piano for our free double Baileys over ice :D

    Also in Boots on my app I had Folic acid and vitamin D vits as a freebie and also 50 points if I bought anything from healthcare so i bought 25p paracetamol :)

    No sign of any reduced section in Superdrug and no So V in Mr Tosssers which is free on COS

    Now home and utterly shattered, still draped over the sofa - I really need to drag my carcass out to the garden but the gravity on this sofa is very strong ... :rotfl:

    I collected my Thorntons chocolates in Chester today as well:) Got the bus (not been on a bus for 15 years) into Chester with a friend as she wanted to go to the bank (it was closed!) and walked the 8 miles back home along the cycle way. Tried for the crisps in WH only to find it was for travel ones only.

    I don't think OH would be able to identify his shirts in a lineup!
