    In Retford today (the whole store was really well stocked generally)

    Velour baby sleeping bags, pink or blue, 3 to 6 mths or 6 to 12 mths, 2.5 tog, £5.99
    A choice of Husky torches, various prices, also a wind-up dynamo flashlight, £2.49
    Assorted Tutti Cutie stationery eg pack of pretty pens, 99p instead of something ludicrous like £5 to £6
    3rd and Bird 2010 annual, 99p
    Gillian McKeith organic tinned pulses 19p (sold out of chick peas and butter beans, but still a wide choice - I got black beans, mung beans, kidney beans, haricot beans..........)
    Also G McK smoothies - veg, which sounds like V8, and fruit 19p, RRP over £1! Don't be put off by the brown colour of the mango (which has spirulina in it).
    Tarantella organic tinned ratatouille 39p

    I don't like peanut butter either, but these are really nice, you should try a bag :)


    Did try them, they are a sort of sickly soft small version of peanut M&Ms, they are OKish but even the one small packet is way too sickly and plus at least 3 of the ingredients are genetically modified.
    It's PAC not PAC Code, it's MAC not MAC Code, it's PIN not PIN Number, it's ATM not ATM Machine, it's LCD not LCD Display, it's DVD not DVD disc... It's no one not noone, It's a lot not alot, It's got not gotten... Panini is the plural of panino - there is no S!!

    Good for them!
    You cant blame people for getting some bargains. It infuriates me more when people do not look around for a bargain but pay silly money for the same or lesser quality.
    How much ?????????!!!

    Have had some of the Sharwoods sweet and sour microwave noodles tonight that are 39p and they are very nice!

    I need to go back Monday for the Gillian Mc ranges as my Dad said all the cereal boxes were 19p - we have got some chick peas/beans which are good store cupboard keep ins!

    Am so glad they opened one in our old Woolies in Stourbridge - 10 mins from work:j
