    As for toothbrushes I buy the packs of 5 from Poundland and they've been great. I'll have a look at the Smartprice ones now, although I don't generally shop in Asda, the next time I pop in.


    I get those Poundland ones too (ie the kiddie ones with sticker feet) - and my hygienist said they were fine when I asked her.

    ISOM - tut! tut! - rap knuckles - there was me being very good and determined not to make jokes about icecream - and you've been and made one - naughty lady!

    1 litre of double cream for £1.89 (gotta replenish Acetate's raspberry ripple supplies and give Mr BOB a chance to try it) :money:

    would have been £2.80 in asda.:D

    runs away to hide from raspberry ripple innuendo jokes....:o:o:o:o

    Can i confess now that i hate icecream:o I will eat it now and then, but it is usually one from the Lake district of Rum and Raisin flavour once every three years or so:o

    Wouldn't indulge Mr.B with it either cos i is mean:eek::rotfl::rotfl:

    AM is safe with his supplies, sounds like he may need them;):D:rotfl:

    How can I cool a red lentil dahl down that I have put way too much chilli into - 2 fresh green and 2 tsp of chilli powder? Whoops!

    Can you mix plain yoghurt into it and it still be ok? Or another suggestions?

    I was feeling so pleased with this frugal recipe coming in at either 13p or 18p per portion making either 6 or 8 portions and being v.frugal.

    I have set my mouth on fire and I don't want to throw it away!

    i love this thread and always read it.....i am interested in your price comparisons with costco as i have been a member for a few years and going to give up this summer as i think overall it is not cheaper, you really have to watch the VAT...i do love their £10 cakes though which are great value, especially for parties etc, you can do lots with them. however the tomatoes and milk sound cheap, i will watch what you come up with....

    on another note i tried netto for the first time yesterday, overall not cheaper than Mr. T or Asda except their carlsberg lager was £11.99 for 24 cans...... keep the tips and recipes coming:D
