    Are they tins or plastic cartons, Nuttygal?

    thanks for this now fully stocked on mandarins:rotfl: pcked up some bits while i was there and unusually they were doing the reduced quite late tonight and picked up some nice final reductions, also got a razor for £1.89. However one of the yellow stickered beauties went through at full price because of a dodgy wet label:T:T:T:T:T and was fortunately a item that was reduced to 40p from £4.00-quick trip to cs and 7.20 back so 3 large full bags of shopping including a razor only set me back 3.50 all together. have to love those wet yellow labels.
    My poor 15 yr old daughter broke her wrist i 5:eek: places tonight poor little mite was screaming in agony, all casted temp now and fingers crossed no surgery needed to fix.
    get well soon honey .

    Loads of the mandarins in Sandhurst - though 15 less than when I got to them! No SEL so no-one is going for them!
    What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare

    I found 19 cans of mandarins today. Unfortunately the self scan was playing up and the helper came over and scanned one of the 5 cans I had in my trolley. It came up a penny and he said there must be something wrong. I said no there isn't its a clearance line and it goes through a penny, I read about it on the internet. He asked what site and I told him and he said ok ! So knowing they were a penny, and that he wasn't going to make a fuss if he spotted it, I went and got the rest of them whoopee !
    Still virtually alcohol free since 4/1/15. (10 Xmas/ New Year/Birthday drinks)
