    Hi RA, How are you and your dad hun???

    Not seen you here for a long....:o

    also missing lots of other regulars....:(


    I am here Idlesaver

    Went to a different tesco this morning and used loads of coupons

    used 6 Fairy, 6 lenor, 6 dove, 2 Rice fusions, 2 spam, 2 tampax, 2 dettol hand wash and a couple of 30p off scotch eggs etc. Young male sa scanned them no problem and in fact was boasting the the woman behind me that I got £57 of shopping for just over £20. She kept watching my bill go down and down and saying to her friend, how has she done that.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Have enough fairy for about 2 years now.:rotfl::rotfl:

    Really like the Rice fusions actually, they taste lovely, especially the mushroom one. yum yum.

    At the moment its £1.40 or 2 for £2.50 in tesco for the 650 ml bottle. so using 2 coupons means I got them for .25p each, not quite free but still a bargain.:):):):)

    Thanks CW, I knew I spelt his name wrongly - he really got slated by some of the jealous mse users didn't he. I salute him for getting whatever he can. Its a dog eat dog world we are living now. We got to grab whatever we can or we will be left behind.
