Come on guys I need help here. whAt does a good MSE do when flashy, probably in debt, mates start throwing money around a bit and expect everyone to join in?


ta!

Looking smug (like the Sheriff of Nottingham Alan Rickman stylee) is a good ploy.

Also remember that one day you'll be the flashy one while they're older and in debt.

Ooo, yes please! :beer: Not sherry for me though...got a nice cold cider please?

And can you give me a minute or two...I was just about to put another cake in. (No, honestly!) :rolleyes:

What kind of cake is that?

And what is the rest of your cooking like?

books, 3 for 2.

DVD on sale using an old voucher for most of it

golf gear, 80% off. very smug about that

cards and wrapping. tesco and good value but look pretty posh

some clothes, 15% off due to taking the store card option. pay that bad boy off and rip up as soon as it arrives.


how did i do?

You did well - but I always find that no matter what a bargain I get I always find an MSEr who get those few pence extra than me .

For example - I am hearing nothing in the above about Quidco, Piggypoints, or a cashback credit card. Although you do get bonus points for bargain shopping and being a bloke

thanks Minnie that's brill. :T

On that note I'm gonna say goodbye. I can't compete with cake! And I have to get my beauty sleep 'cos I'm running a half-mara tomorrow.

It's a chocolate yoghurt cake, and my cooking is coming on in leaps and bounds thanks to the OS board. :j
