Loo roll is the biggie... expensive for what it is.... all stores always seem to have very similar prices on these...boooooo.

i know it's far to expensive when you think where it ends up, i can remeber going to teh shop for my mum when i was about 10 (i'm only 24 now) and buying single ones for 10p :rotfl: i buy value but we use more then but even then it's still cheaper, i bought some tesco own to kill a voucher last month and my hubby was thrilled :rotfl:

COuld you please provide a link to the one you bought - there were 2 similar but different ones on the shelf yesterday so I left it - too big a gamble.
Thanks!

I’m at work at the moment so I don’t have the actual product on me but I just had a look at the Tesco website and can only find one youth code serum? I will check as soon as I get home though and get back to you!

Anyone had luck with any ground coffee (not instant), or ideally coffee beans?

I tried this yesterday, came back N/A today:
Asda Extra Special Colombian Fairtrade Coffee Beans 227g £2.78 or 3 for £5.00
Tesco Finest Colombian Supremo Coffee Beans 227G £3.29

Think I might give this a go later...

Asda Extra Special Java Ground Coffee (227g) : £2.78 (3 for £5.00)
Tesco Finest Java Sumatra Ground Coffee 227G : £3.39 (2 for £5.50)

Asda have 3 for £5 on Extra Special coffee at the mo - anyone found a match?

Hi folks, just submitted confirmations from my shop to the SS

Just wondered whether anyone had tried this:
Garnier Ambre Solaire After Sun Calming Gel (200ml)
£9.18 in Mr T, £4 in Mr A

And has anyone confirmed/tried any other Ambre Solaire Aftersun?

What do we reckon? Shall I give it a go?

Hi

According top Mr Ts site, they have lots of items going back up in price on Tuesday, providing that Mr A keeps the same prices at present there are loads of kids stuff.

I am compiling a list of items due to go up at Mr Ts on Tuesday.... will post list as soon as I have completed it.

send it to us too please

*Scottish*Lass*

Went to visit Mr. T today with the intention of getting everything on my 1st list:

Wilco sword Quattro bikini razor for women, 3 pot noodles, smoked salmon, 7 up, 3 muller corners and a campbells pasta and sauce.


1st thing I went looking for was the razor. None on the shelf. Oh no!!! lol Panicked a bit as I couldn't think of anything that would work out to give me my DTD back without costing me too much more! So, grabbed a £10 toothbrush, 2 x 4 packs of WKD and tampons..... :rotfl: was sure this would give me an almost £20 dtd back......

Got to the tills and chose a woman who looked nice and friendly. My work had had a tesco online shop which had given us a £17.90 DTD voucher back, so I was getting easter eggs and cream cakes for us all as well as my own shopping. I had 12 eggs plus some caramel bunnies and mini caramel eggs (for hiding around the office. yes we are a bunch of big kids! ha ha ha) she was very friendly, asked if it was a nursery or school that I was getting them for. No says me, an accountants office........ lol

Then I took out the voucher and delivery note. Oh, says she, not seen one of these before. need to get a supervisor. However, couldn't find a supervisor so I pointed out the barcode and postcode and she was happy to go for it. Then a supervisor walks past and the young lad at the next till shouts that my SA had been looking for her. *groan* so over she comes, she's the same one that's seen me the last 2 days. My receipt and £20 DTD is lying next to the £17.90 DTD and delivery note. I'm freaking out a bit. She checks it over and says ok. No friendliness or anything, a wee bit P'd off me thinks.........

The SA then explains to me that they've had 2 fake DTD vouchers passed through - codes not matching on receipts - that the SAs didn't check! so they've tightened up a bit. She also said that they've been warned to look for people that 'know what to buy'. Oh? How do you mean? says innocent little me :rotfl: well, she says, they look it up online and know what they'll get money back for! Me: Nooooo! where do they find that then? Just on asda and tesco websites? Her: I don't know.

She then gave me 12 vouchers for schools and I was on my way ha ha ha

Think I'll stay away for a few days.................

I mentioned Quorn mine earlier, I had it one one of my shopping lists. The 300g bags are 3 for £5 at Tesco just now. No DTD on them, but (surprisingly!) a decent price from Ts for this

Which means (of course) that you should buy them from ASDA. Since Mr A will let you have 3 for £4.50. :)
