gosh
i will not use them guys
man they looked so real...

That's the best news I've heard all day!:j:beer: I'm so glad you are an honest couponer and I apologize if I sounded harsh but I can not afford to buy food without the help of coupons and anyone that threatens that for me and my family is the scum of the earth. At the moment I'm down to 1 Express and 1 Tesco that will take coupons and the Tesco will only allow 1 shop/week with coupons which makes life difficult as I could do with shopping 2-4 times/week to meet our grocery needs. Anyway norman n you are alright in my book!:A

Bought my first pack of Pik a Paks today. It was quite easy to see that they had moc's attached:D

I have a question for all of you who have bought shed loads;).

Do you take the coupons off as you use them, or like me, now have 8 boxes with a neat square cut out the back.:rotfl:

Going to buy a few more tomorrow as I see the use by date is Oct 2010

:T

I take all of the coupons of at one time and then put all of little packets in a tub and the children choose a packet from there each day. A few weeks ago there were some vouchers in the Daily Mail, £1 moc when you spent £5 on cereal, beverages...pic a paks were an even better deal then.
There are rumoured to be more Daily Mail mocs tomorrow - check the newspaper thread tomorrow.

Welsome MrsMondragon, you certainly can save lots of money with the help of this thread. Have a read through the first few posts (don't forget to thank them) there it's lots of information there and ask anything you need help with. I've found this thread to be really helpful and friendly. Hope you save lots of money.

I take a small stanley knife (you know the kind you get about 12 for a £ and they are all different colours and the knife slides out for you to use and back in when you are done - just like a stanley knife) and push it just through the box at the top, be careful not to push the knife through too far as you will puncture the bag with the cereal, then run the knife along the top dotted line, then I use a pair of scissors to finish cutting the coupon off the box. That way I can use the coupon now and still have fresh cereal that I don't have to either guess what it is or label it and it stacks away better in the box.

Well atm they cost about £1.30 and depending on the mix have either 7 or 8 25p moc's on the backs so you can't really lose (I think!) - So just feed 'em cereal for a year or two and you'll be a millionaire :rotfl:(Sorry can't be bothered to actually calculate for you and it doesn't include milk but you can always make them eat then dry!!)

LMAO Go on, do a quick calc for me...... Wish I could just feed them cereal. I detest being the one who has to decide what they wnat for dinner every night. Kids are no probs (18 & 23 yr old sons who either get their own or eat what is given them), but hubby .....:mad: Threatened to poison his dinner tonight and told him if he wanted a Stepford wife who had diner on the table at 5pm every night he should have gone to bl**dy Stepford to get one!

The pick a pacs would be great they would actually save you money. Each pack of 8 costs £1.36 (used to be £1.18 even better bargain then), each packet has a 25p coupon on it so £2.00 in moc, you would actally make 74p profit each time you bought them.

beat me to it m4rtin

Brill, brill, brill Thanks everyone else too - I can see me clearing the shelves in Mr T's tomorrow hahaha.
