Well done on shopping. I had some Boots bargains the other day as well. Trouble is, you buy stuff, then the till prints out another voucher and you feel obliged to use that etc etc. Am sure the savings are outweighed by the headache tablets you need after calculating it allA positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

A good haul in Txsco yesterday. I paid full price for the cucumbers (and also the maltesers and Pringles
) but all 24 of my other items were either reduced price or multibuy.

On the point of signatures I like mine 'in your face' as you say as you can read it properly.
On the emergency fund, mine has gone down drastically due to the side of my house needed repointing so I am spending a lot of this year building that back up, (this also consists of taking the money from holiday savings and putting into EF) but hey thats what its there for
