As always, weekends are when I do all my shopping.
So, I've spent £30.23 in Sainsburys - double the norm, however didn't shop for anything but bread and milk last weekend! Their possibly best kept secret is Kelloggs Cornflakes 500g box at £1!!! It's the 100 Year Anniversary box and there is no advertising - just the little black shelf label. The next size down box is 99p!!
Lots of BOGOFS for stock : crisps, chocci biscuits and cans of Pepsi (50p a pop at work) - got 12 for £2.29.
Park & Ride into town this morning £1.30.
Market fruit and veg - £3.65
Wilkos (again!) - £8.49 - included a birthday pressie for a footie mad child of a football wall clock for £2.50!
Went back to Boots to see if the Ted Baker sets were still on offer (down from £10 to £6.66), but no, they're back to full price today :sad: Wanted 2 more for pressies, so will have to think of something else now!
Still to get petrol (£20), but that's it for the weekend.
Want to get on with a bit of gardening and start a sort out of toys and clothes for a boot sale.Back on the DFW Wagon:
