with a vegenace :T

Not had much luck recently but today Mr's T and S came up with the goods - not sure if the peking duck for £1.50 or the fillet steak for £3 will be our first treat but there will def be a couple of the 10p bag of 8 croissants for brekkie tomorrow.

I'd forgotten the thrill of a super bargain....has the first day of lent smiled on anyone else too?

good bargain for 10p.

i do mainly food shopping online of late and i do miss being able to get a super reduced item. It amazing some of the deal's. think last one i got was 6 free range extra large eggs for 20p box.

if only my local supermarkets did reductions like that!! If I go early evening then the reductions are rubbish and then if I leave it later all that's elft is limp, brown salad!!

Hi Everybody,

I just have a question about whoopsies. What day in a week can I get the most of whoopsies? Is seems that in big T there is not a lot of them:(. Particularly no any vegetable or fruit.

Thanks:)
