in Shop but don't drop
:coffee: :coffee: :coffee: :coffee: :coffee: :coffee: :coffee: This is the 100g jar which is priceflashed at £2.39. Just £1 jar in Iceland. As they say-when it's gone---it's gone! I just bought 24 jars-where else would I make a 139% interest on my investment? :coffee: :coffee: :coffee: :coffee: :coffee: :coffee:

    The ability of skinny old ladies to carry huge loads is phenomenal. An ant can carry one hundred times its own weight, but there is no known limit to the lifting power of the average tiny eighty-year-old Spanish peasant grandmother.

    They started well off "Yuppies" (Young Upwardly mobile Professional People)
    Became even better off "Dinkies" (Double Income No Kids)
    and ended up "Sitcoms" (Single Income, Three Children, Oppressive Mortgage)
