I wondered if anyone has seen any tub trugs in HB recently? I saw some a while ago in our local one and just wondered if they are still doing them. I'm thinking of using them to plant chilli peppers in in my greenhouse.

Hi, there's a HB thread, maybe if you ask on there?

I found one - but only one! - of the Calippo style moulds hiding under a stack of melamine trays.
Egg-shaped timers were back in, along with digital timers. I bought the egg-shaped.
Lovely straw Easter bonnets to decorate, a good size too.
Original Source shampoos and conditioners.
Big milk Toblerones.
Hello Kitty body butters, 50 ml. Cute tin.
Walker's Extra Crunchy large sized sharing bag of crisps, various varieties.
A good variety of 250 ml body butters.
The Dutch apple pastries were back in but now only 8 for £1 instead of 12.
24 Oxo stock cubes, beef and chicken.
The Kiwi in-cistern toilet cleaners - super-economical - both green and blue.
Lots of lovely Disney and Pixar (Toy Story) children's mugs.
5 teaspoons.
Ben 10 toys and mugs.
Boys' long sleeved T-shirts with 'Cars' type motif, age 6-7

QI Book of the Dead, Readers' Digest Home security DIY book.

Having read the QI Book of the Dead I bought in the Darlington store I'm thinking these might be seconds as the raised printing on the front doesn't line up properly. Doesn't change how enjoyable the book is though!

ended up with limescale under the water line. Was a mare to get rid of.

Also picked up a book called just 4 ingredients even the SA seemed surprised as it is nice a book. Make a nice little pressie.

I saw just one copy of a hb book on the shelf on Friday (and I apologize as I can't remember the exact title) - it was about frugal living! lol

Not quite as good value (4 for £6.99) with free P&P but these look pretty FAB.

Saw those today for £4.99 I think it was in Matalan.

If this happens again try pouring a can of full strength coke and leave for a few hours - should eat it away nicely
(why does it taste so good too:o)

I have these. Got them in the end of summer stock clearout in our local Waitrose last year for about £3. They are brilliant and tonnes better than all the £1 sets I have bought over the years. They're not too hard to clean, I just leave them to soak in the sink for a bit...well worth the extra money for me..

I live in a soft water area, thankfully never had a prob with limescale - which is probably why the cleaners sell so well here.
Slightly disappointed with the fizzy fish-shaped sweets (marked as being Halal), not very fizzy, and a very sticky texture. Pistachio nuts weren't up to much either.
Clearly this is a message that I should ignore nuts and sweets and concentrate on trying to lose weight.

I just tried a Calippo style lolly made with yesterday's purchases of mould and St Clement's juice. It took me back .... I got an 'ice-cream migraine' the way I used to when I was a kid! (The mould worked beautifully, but the juice was much too watery to give a really good result.)
