How come I missed out on this offer????? Everybody seems to have bought up truck loads!!

Softstuff

A good one for me was always ultra.
Bit back they sent free vouchers to every address in our area, regardless of the occupants age. My mum and her many friends past menopause weren't eager to use theirs, but they went one better than just give me the vouchers, they all went in and redeemed them!!. So I too have enough always till at least next year.

Would have loved to see the faces of the shop assistants when my mothers oldest friend redeemed hers... she's 87 this year :rotfl:

Chipps

I have pretty much cleared most of my stockpiles at the mo, but still have an enormous bag of marvel dried milk powder that was reduced drastically at Iceland ages ago.
Wish I'd seen that bodyform offer, though!

Blimy! For got to mention that rediculous offer that Superdrug and The Sun were doing this saturday past. The sun had a coupon for a FREE 200ml SUNCREAM WORTH £8.50!!! Needless to say upon reading of the smallprint where they had said one coupon per transaction rather than one per customer................I went and bought 12 copies of The Sun for £6.60 then promptly went to Superdrug and got 12 bottles of factor 40 kids cream worth........................wait for it.......................£101.88:T :T :T :T :T Yay for dopey t's and c's on coupons!!!!!!

i wonder what the company directors faces are like when the penny drops that they have just done a BIG booboo when the sales go sky hight and the profits hit rock bottom... when there is loopholes/offers that we all stock up on....?:rolleyes: like the body form one this year.....they must have been flying off the shelves....when they had those £1.00 off vouchers on them.....and then a sale slump...as no one buying as peoples houses are full to the rafters......

Agutka

I 'stocked up' on Nouvelle toilet rolls... They were very cheap for a while and I bought five packs of 9 everytime I went into Tescos...which was every other day . It took us a good six months to get through them, and when they ran out I fell for the Charmin Bog-Off... These rolls are bigger... But I think I only have 14 packs left...

It seems I've cought the bog roll bug! Just been in to Leighton Buzzard for some bits and popped into Iceland. They had the triple velvet which I HAVE NEVER BOUGHT as its sooooo expensive. They had packs of 9 with 3 free so 12 packs reduced from £4.25 to £3 and I had 5 £1 off coupons from a mailing promo a while ago................................so 60 "posh" bog rolls for £10.
