    Can I add Weezl, that the shopping list didn't include much value stuff either!

    Strange thing jo is that I do my main shop at Asda 'cos it's nearest to me. I've been doing that receipt checking thing and Asda always comes out cheapest overall. That's mainly because the 3 for £12 wine is full price in the other shops:o but other things are cheaper too. I suppose it depends what you buyconfused-smiley-013.gif

    He looks decidedly French, doing what we call a 'garlic shrug'.

    I've just ordered a £50.00 theme park and a £50.00 safari park voucher with my Tesco reward points and it only cost me £25 worth of vouchers. I've priced it up and I'll only have to pay £6 on top for the 4 of us.

    So that 2 days out sorted out for our holiday :D
