Tesco till-spit coupons - limited time only
I don't shop at Tesco much, but a couple of weeks ago I got a £4 off £30 spend coupon at the till.

Is this going to keep happening and they're just going to keep luring me in to spend more and more (in which case…

I then went into another large supermarket and they were selling Hovis bread…

Not impressed with Lidl
Nor impressed with Lidl at all today. Went to my local "cheap" Lidl and noticed that they increased the price of toilet paper Floralys. It went from £1.36 to £1.66 in just one week. People still think that Lidl is cheap!!!

Wine preserver/saver?
There have been occasions (rare) when we have not finished off the entire wine in the bottle. Rather than throwing the leftover wine, usually I tend to use the cork to close bottle so that it can be used up later. Obviously the wine never tastes the same when the bottle is opened again later (usually 1-2 days). Does anyone…
