    Missed that one but then I never use Body Shop - I did get the D/Mail today for the £5 Mr T voucher - need code from tomorrow Mail on Sunday but I buy that for next stall-holder at car boot anyway, and she won't use hers ;);)

    Mr 3Dogs has been over at his mate's stripping engine down today - the filter kit came today by royal mail but the head gasket set & head bolts will not be here till Monday now, by courier. So, as soon as they come on Monday, Mr 3Dogs will go straight over to his mate's to fix van - well, we hope that will fix it :eek:

    I took him over to his mate's in my friend's car and called for some shopping for her and for myself. My bill in Mr T came to £49.73 and with offers, glitches and money-off coupons I only had £18.80 to pay by debit card. I then went to CS and got another £4 back on DTD on overcharged items, so I only had to pay £14.80 in the end :j :j and that included a treat I got for our tea - fillet steak reduced to £4.19 from £12.76 - enough for our tea and another piece gone in freezer for Mr 3Dogs when I am next away :D:D

    I love Mr T's bargains and glitches :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    I have been closely following the glitches, offers and money-off coupon threads on here

    I got 5 tops and 1 pair of leggings all marked at £6 or 2 for £8 BUT they have 25% off all ladies clothes Friday and Saturday AND they are taking the 50% off the original price of £6 AND then giving you the £4 discount to make 2 for £8 - so 6 items at £6 each = £36 less 50% £18 = £18 less £12 for 3 x £4 for the 2 for £8 offer - leaving 6 items costing £6 - £1 each :j :j Works on all 2 for £8 items but ends tonight. Hopefully next weekend they will have a similar offer on menswear :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Then I got 2 x Dove antiperspirant at £2.10 but BOGOFree AND I had 2 x £1 money-off coupons meaning I paid 10p for 2 antiperspirants

    And 2 x Philidelpia Extra Light Cheese 200 gms at £1.34 but on offer for 2 for £2 and I had one £1 money-off coupon so I paid £1 for 2 or 50p each tub

    AND I got 4 x heavy glass striped glasses (tumblers) which are £1.25 each or 6 for £6 BUT they have stickers on them saying 4 for £3 SO after going through the check-out and being charged £1.25 each I went to CS and said I didn't think I had been charged the right amount on them - I was charged £5 (4 x £1.25) but should have been charged £3 for the 4 so I was overcharged £2 and they give you double the diff if you are overcharged, therefore I got £4 refunded meaning the 4 glasses cost me £1 or 25p each for very nice heavy glasses

    Oh, and Skinny Cow ice cream lollies are reduced to £1 a box of 3 instead of £1.97 full price so I got 2 packs of them

    Nearly forgot, I got a 2 pts of Cravendale Milk for my friend/neighbour and it was £1.80 but I had a 50 money-off coupon (moc) so she got it for £1.30 instead

    My friend brought Mr 3Dogs back from their house after working on the van, and, after I told her, she was going home via Mr T ;);)
