Tastes and coupons

Check this site out to see when McVities are doing tasting sessions in your local supermarket and don't forget to grab a handfull of coupons!!!

http://www.mcvitiescakeofbritainawards.com/

Generally when these sort of things go on you can prise a few more coupons out of the demonstrators than they would normally give you, split up if you go with your partner/significant other/wife/husband/kids etc to maximise your haul, kids can be cheekier and get more coupons just by uttering words like "delicious, lush, mum can we get some can we can we can we? teach your children to be moneysavers early!! Take them when they're hungry too!
Four guns yet only one trigger prepare for a volley.


Together we can make a difference.

    thought that is great advice it and made me smile:rotfl:
    For thousands of people this Christmas, their must-have gift is far more vital than the latest gadget or toy – it’s blood. Please don’t let the festivities and cold weather prevent you from giving them the ultimate gift… give blood.

    My 12yr old is so incredibly cute he always comes back from sampling counters with his pockets stuffed full of coupons and his mouth full of food.:rotfl: He gets to spend all the coupons on himself, he knows exactly what value of coupons he has at any given time and even saves them up for more expensive items, all money he is given goes into savings because "I don't need money to buy things I'll use my coupons when you go to Tesco"

    Nowhere near me, unfortunately, but it does say they'll add more locations soon :)

    I love McVities... :drool:

    I like to think we have, I am quite excited at his prospects, his head is sound, he is academically advanced and his nature is that whilst well behaved and dutifull he can still relate with his peers, (football helps!) his ambitions are sound and his mum still gets a kiss goodnight EVERY night. What more can you ask from your children.
