    Donnajt maybe Lynsey means the vouchers you get with your clubcard statement

    No, these are additional to the Clubcard ones. These are posted, like Sainsbury's do now and again. A book of several coupons (conditional spend ones). I'm just about to print off a £2 Clubcard points one now.

    Bertolli is 95p in Sainsbury's - only 45p with 50p coupon.

    needless to say I didn't win !!
  • Morning all.

    Feeling much better today thanks, late last night I had a slice of pineapple and some water.

    Donna, the coupons are on the mini roll packets themselves.

    Gonna pop to Mr s In a bit, if they have more mini rolls I will get some, along with more cookie mix, its for my cousins suprise party and some tins of soup, 19p after money off is a great price and I will donate whatever I get to s army today. LOL also found a 28p brand match, thats another free soup or something.

    Going to have some water and the pineapple slices from yesterday and melon, soup and pittas for lunch and jacket potato and chilli for dinner, that will use the last of the chilli, so I can finally take something out of the freezer for tomorrow

    There seems to be a new coupon every week which is great, my cupboard is full of snacks, moments, nv bars, cracker crisps, mini rolls, Christmas pudding,despite me giving loads away, won't need to buy any biscuits or cakes until next year

    I have been doing this this week. We make our own bread using a breadmaker and our own yoghurt, home made cakes, scones, pasta salad, dried fruit salad, home made soup using the root veg in the fridge plus pulses from the store cupboard, home made quiche. Saved a fortune this week and eaten really well.
  • Just had the last of the chilli and the last 2 jacket potatos.

    Did go to Mr s, but they had cleared the Halloween mini rolls, luckily I had 3 50p coupons left lol, got 2 boxes of matchmakers free, tin of 5 beans and a pack of mint mini rolls 29p to pay, used 21p brand match, have spent under £5 no further spends this week, Mr s don't seem to want.to give me a £2 off coupon, which I am waiting for, typical.
