Iceland Food Bonus Card Savings
Hi I'm not sure if anyone else does this, Towards the end of the last year I started putting the odd few pounds in money on my Bonus Card as a way of saving for the Christmas shop. I just asked the cashier to make the total up to the nearest £5.00. If it was £43.00 I asked them to take the £45.00 that's £43.00 for the…

50p tinned foods
In my local Asda tonight (Eastleigh/Chandlers ford) a selection of 50p tins for the store cupboard. Heinz, Branston etc, ravioli, soup, spaghetti, beans, sausage & beans, Fajita beanz etc. Good to stock up on for this price if it is something you use/like, although possibly not as cheap as own brand. HTH.

Least busy time and day in Aldi
I guess most Aldi stores are quite packed due to their success. Is there any optimum day & time when it's least busy? Instead of having a separate counter to deal with issues, Aldi do it at the main checkout which holds up the entire queue. Perhaps its deliberate to dissuade you from reclaiming?

2l Rapeseed Oil £1.44 @ Asda
A few weeks ago Asda launched Britannia cooking oil at £2 for a squarish 2 litre bottle. By the time I needed some, it had gone up to £3, so I bought Aldi's £1/1l offering instead. I've been keeping an eye on the price whilst shopping in Asda expecting it to rollback to £2 at some point, but yesterday noticed it was only…

8 year old beef in Tesco?
We bought diced beef in Tesco, but after eating it I looked at the label and it says "Slaughtered in IE 2007". Does this mean it is 8 years old, kept frozen then defrosted and cut up to be sold? It also says cut in IE533 and I was able to look that up - a meat processing factory run by Kepak Ltd in Ballymahon County…

Aldi chocolate salmonella scare
I wasn't sure whether to put this in the 'good and bad buys from Aldi' thread... "Aldi chocolate recalled in salmonella scare" http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-birmingham-30683560 I suppose that pretty much qualifies as a bad buy, doesn't it?

Wedding Cheese Cake
Hi, myself and my partner are planning our wedding, and we have decided to do away with the traditional wedding cake inplace of a much more satisfying wedding cake made of cheese.

Is Cosco really that cheap? Which SM is best?
We have two adults and three young children in our house and seem to spend a fortune on shopping. I've tried Lidl and Alidi and while I understand they are much cheaper I'm not a huge fan of the brands to be honest. Our default weekly big shop is normally ASDA. I joined Cosco a while ago and had a stage where I used it a…
