    It is only about 60 years ago that quite well off people would find a source of small squares of paper and then thread them through the corner and hang them up in the smallest room.
    Cheaper than Izal or Bronco and all three types made good drawing paper!

    Now should we talk about lining nappies with sphagnum moss?

    For some people every penny counts ... dont be such a cynic .. You sure cant take it with you if you dont have it in the first place ..

    That's unfair! Some people just don't have it; and yes, in my case, every bit counts. Save a penny save a pound!!

    points values Tesco 1 point per pound
    Boots 4 point per pound
    Sainsburys 2 points per pound unless you are in Scotland only
    1 point per pound up to a £50 spend. :mad: :mad: :eek:
    Sorry, I must have missed the point ... can't buy my groceries or feed my child from Boots. Boots (in my life) is a luxury shop? Yes? No?
