    i noticed the country life butter the other day, but they never seem to have any at our local :confused: also worth noting that it is only the salted butter that is 50p not the unsalted
  • Sheffield Abbeydale Rd:

    Rocking JC Original Beef Jerky goes through at 1p

    and even though the Country Life Butter is marked up at 93p, it scans at 50p.

    Hovis strong wholemeal bread flour 1.5kg now 25p a packet.

    It had been 51p for a couple of weeks, but now 75% off.

    Errrm, that's a tiny fraction over 50% off. :confused:
    75% off would be around 13p!

    Still a good buy tho', so thanks for posting!

    The offer has long gone now. I originally posted this in September.The full price was about £1.03. It was then half price for a couple of weeks, and then reduced again. Now the price is back up to over £1. Sorry if I confused anyone

    Tins of curry sauce (Tesco value) back down to 4p per tin = great for adding into things not so great on it's own you could use it as a soup.

    Tesco premium toffee almond ice cream 75p a litre - usually £3 odd.

    Doesn't sound great, which is why it's probably being phased out. But it tastes nice. Give it a try if you can find it.

    I saw quite few reductions on Hair accessories today.
    Clips,
    Scrunchies,
    Combs
    Slides
    Brushes etc.
    All the arms with the yellow sells for items I was interested in were empty, so I presume these are not 'new' reductions.
    Seems to be about 75% off.
    Maybe good for stocking fillers and girls goody bags?:confused:
