 I'm in Leeds and have most supermarkets within easy travelling distance - Asda, Sainsburys, Morrisons, Tesco, Co-op/Somerfield, Aldi, Lidl, Home Bargains, B&M, etc. 
 I picked up Chivas Regal for £16.50 at Morrissons, £5 off. My Dad tells me this is the best whisky ever!0

 Thank you very much for looking for me :T
 I've bought them mail order before and they tend to get squished and leak sticky (but delicious) juice so I was hoping to find them in a retail shop and avoid the PO delivering.

 Have you seen the hard plastic boxes they are doing? Like the fererro roc her ones? They shouldn't get squashed! You could always ask for them to put them in bubble wrap too?0

            Can anyone help tracking down some doll's bunkbeds like these?
 http://www.elc.co.uk/Cup-Cake-Baby-Bunkbed/118737,default,pd.html
 They've been out of stock for while so i don't think they're getting anymore in (typical with 20% off as well! :mad:)
 Need to find some on behalf of a family member, preferably paying no more than £35....
 Have you seen these? In the 1/2 price sale at £20 now!

 Argos have it for £69 but i'm mooching around for a bargain on it. You can get it for £59 + £10 credit as some of the mobile phone outlets but I feel it must be available cheaper from somewhere so am clinging on in there in the hope that it will be around £50 in a week or so!
 It was in carphone warehouse @ £44.95(£10 top up) I went back a couple of days later to get one and they had put it up £5!!
 still watching n waiting:(0
