    3 types of ready to pour Ambrosia custard.

    Chocolate: 88p/90p (was 10p)
    Normal
    Low fat: 30p

    with the low fat custard, is it 30p on the SEL or is it a glitch? my local says full price on SEL but no self scanner to price check. got so much choc custard so can't justify buying anymore unless its cheap!!!:p
    bargain hunting is what i do! :money: 2 adults 3 kids - its like trying to feed a zoo! :D

    I've always seen the 30p on the SEL (or 31p I think in Express stores). No glitch, just a straight up cheap price.

    Oh forgot to say the kids gardening kits are £2.50 in mine, shame as we need garden prizes for the school fete.
    Going to keep an eye on it though thanks to the poster :)

    The whole refrigerated Tapas range is £2.50 each or 2 for £4. The reduced items I picked up were reduced to 89p. Buy a pair and get the £1 off that's normally applied to full price:

    Full price - £2.50 x 2 = £5. Deal kicks in to give a quid off = £4

    Reduced price - 89p x 2 = £1.78. Deal STILL kicks in to give a quid off = 78p.

    Hurrah, I found some of these in the reduced chiller cabinet this evening and it still works.
    I bought 4 tapas @50p each = £2.00 and got a £2.50 tapas multisave discount at the end of my bill - result !
    I bought a 200g vegetable paella which was really tasty, 2 x basque beef and 1 spicy potatoes, free ! and 50 p off my other mostly reduced shopping.

    In the stationery section I also found some cheapo black 6 x 4 photo albums 'price cut' from 1.49 to 37p.

    And found a mens F & F pants and socks set for £1.25, will try to remember who posted that, to thank them.

    Hartleys orange jelly still 19p, but lemon & lime ready made jelly back up to full price.
    Still virtually alcohol free since 4/1/15. (10 Xmas/ New Year/Birthday drinks)
    It takes 3500 calories to lose a pound in weight. Target 13 lbs weight loss. 18.5lbs lost 2nd May - 28 September.
