    If you're going to Tesco in Kingston or Bletchley, you can stop by at ASDA on the way and pick up the free April edition of ASDA magazine. Inside, toward the back is a coupon for 0.50p off some cleaning product. You can take this coupon to Tesco and try using it even if you don't buy the product (I managed to use two of them in the past week).

    And, if you use Persil non-bio original tablets, Morrisons have the big boxes for 24 washes (48 tablets) for jsut 3.80 instead of 4.80 at Tesco.

    A branch of Coutts & Co (Queen banks with them) are opening a branch in Milton Keynes :eek:

    Apparently they predict that there will be a large number of millionaires living in MK during the next few years...

    Lets hope I am one of them !!
