    If like last year Mothers Day will be the next one after this weekend!

    Yes, most likely to be one then and then Easter.

    No expensive mains this week though.

    Nah, don't like the look of most of this - can't be doing with the 'cook' range. I prefer proper meat, not mucked about a bit. No looking for the biggest chicken. Don't think I'll bother.

    There is some great stuff in this one for those who like a bit of help making a nice meal.

    This

    The Cook Menu Spanish Style Chicken & Chorizo Stew

    is stunning!

    Serve it with some warm bread and maybe some side veg and you have a great meal for two. Of course The cook range is designed for two and not for 4. So some of the people looking for meals for a family may not get all they want for £10. The rest of us will have several nice meals out of this though.

    What I would say is that there is a list of main meals that will trigger this deal but will not be advertised. They are there to support stores that sell out of main meals but have all the rest. I can't post it, maybe someone who dosn't like there job will. But if you select 3 dishes and your favourite main course from a dine in for £10 in the past. There is a chance it will go through on the deal.

    There are some great deals to be had particularly if you look hard enough, like some of the cook items or maybe even my fav BBQ chickens.

    I mean't like steak or medium whole chicken, not cook range.

    How do you manage that ? I take you buy more than one

    I buy several. Its not that I'm lazy but when you leave for work at 6 am and get back at 7pm. A decent meal for two that you don't have to prepare to much is a god send.

    Thanks for that, have kept checking today!

    For the first time ever though there is nothing I really fancy from the main courses and a bit sick of the Chicken with Davidstow Cheddar Gratin, shame some of it is covered with chilli or is Thai.

    I quite fancy this, but I like cajun spices.

    Are you saying that some of the other Cook items and BBQ chickens are included in the deal, even though they are not advertised?
