    Trust me, it won't work. I've tried it. Assemble and put some water in it and try it. ;)


    Haha..... I see what you mean, I've just tried it! :o

    I will still use it though, I just won't use the spout to pour, I'll just lift the lid, so long as you pour out of the side, it's fine :)
    If at first you don't succeed ........ ;) Alternative autism therapies should be free!!

    Really happy with my shop at Coventry ricoh last night, no dove, nuts or black magic. But I did find 4 of the 1p pet carriers on the top shelf. I was gonna give up but then remembered the mantra 'look up' and there they were!

    What are the pet carriers? Toy ones?

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Had a good shop yesterday and when I got back checcked for the galaxy voucher and got lucky. Yippee an excuse to go shopping again. Couldn't find any 1p items in Ely, but got a few custards 30p no pasta sauce, teabag, harpics etc. No choccies boo hoo. Only have the small boxes of thorntons and black magic.

    Me thinks Barhill Extra may be worth a trip. Anyone here had any luck there. It would be good to work together.

    I did manage to get a few bargains with markdowns however. Total spend £24.09 Total value £91.50 Thanks to special offers, mark downs and £21.50 in vouchers !

    Couldn't have done it without all your help on here so thanks again everyone.

    Ps how do I add smiles to posts please, havn't quite worked it out yet. Cheers

    Thanks. I'm still getting to know stuff, Never joined a forum before, don't think I'll have time for any others. I was already addicted to bargains and now I'm addicted to this forum aswell ! :)

    not being confrontational but 90% last 10 pages is all dove talk, there is a dove thread incase anyone didnt know, just hard to wade through takes ages trying find 1p related stuff and low price stuff, thanks

    Don't worry about it, there are a few of us who wade through everything and update the penny items list. I must add that we also include other great offers such as the 7p teabags or 30p custard etc.

    So just a gentle reminder to everyone on the thread, please post new finds in BLUE, if possible with description, barcode, price and a picture. We are then in a position to find it easily and update the ss as quickly as we can.

    Happy bargain hunting everyone.

    Why has this thread been marked as expired?
    I thought I'd lost the plot when I couldn't find it in Grabbit.

    Not sure why it has been moved? I'm totally confused now. I was typing away and when I exited it ended up in the Gone Thread?
