Hi everybody...
Update from me: I managed 6hrs at 2nd job today, so that’s extra cash! Plus, while I was at work, Mr P changed the bed and washed/dried/ironed it all – love him!!! (He is available to hire for a small fee…:p).
Called into Waitrose when I left work and picked up 2 packets of Kingsmill rolls (78p down to 19p), some Somerset brie (£1.36 from £2.59), a caramel shortbread cheesecake thing for Mr P (59p from £1.99) and some half price strawberries, raspberries and blueberries – very happy with my shopping!
Well done cassey1 on the birthday puddings and coffees! :T
Myrtle – I think your home grown meal sounds lovely…please feel free to invite me round any time…I promise I’ll be very complimentary! ( I particularly like the idea of home grown slave labour!!:rotfl:).
Well done Rose28454 on your car boot profit! :j
