    I never said you were drinking it, I said I hope you are not buying it, as you are underage.

    Hello....
    Our house well my mums and dads house is flooding with freebies beans,lenors,reloaded..etc...but theres only one thing wrong we are running out of pace to put the stuff in theres no free room in the huse as its a 3 room house and i lvie with my 12 year old sister 15 year ld brother mum and dad and am 13/14 i share a room with my sister theres loads of products under neath our beds hid all around the house but theres no more space have any of you couponers got any ideas of how to put your stock into something to make it simple to use and not too big,

    Ask in Aldi or Lidl if you can have some of their empty cardboard fruit boxes, the ones that are raised slightly in the corners so that they stack on top of each other.

    They will be glad to give them away as it saves them storing or crushing them.

    I have used them in the past when I was short of storage space.

    We put them on the landing, had about 5 boxes stacked with food and toiletries in.

    Just make sure you put the heaviest stuff in the bottom boxes.

    They are cut away slightly at the sides you can take smaller things from them without lifted any off the stack.

    ;)

    The 2 pack jacket potatoes are on offer in most places for £1, I suppose they may be worth having in as a quick lunchtime snack for 50p.

    I have just been looking at mys and the price of Colgate - theres a 75p print off MOC.

    I noticed
    Asda - quite a few £1 items that would be good as fillers as nowhere else sells them

    Tesco - quite a few items around the £2.99 mark that are £1 in Asda so good for making up £40 shops and/or to use up TPP - you just have to mind the £10 cap.

    So good for t v a shops (and possibley a v s shops as well)
    Sainsburys - quite a few Colgates on offer as well around the £1 mark - good if you have a brand match to use up amd/or a conditional spend

    (I was one of the few that did not do dental when the mad glitch was on :)

    I think we need a chart - who is good at making charts :T

  • I had a coupon printing frenzy last night!
    I have'nt done it for ages but after watching four Extreme Couponings back to back I thought I would give it another go!
    Managed to get about £20 off my shop,using a £4 off £40 spend,plus Fairy platinum voucher,lenor,Kenco Millican,Crunchy nut cornflakes ( came through the post) Gillette Venus disposables and Spam B1G1free.
    Lad on the till was not sure if they took the coupons and called a supervisor over....She checked with him that they had my name on (internet coupons)
    And checked all my coupons thoroughly, then checked they matched with the items I had bought,which were already in my bags.
    Never once making eye contact with me.
    I stood calmly and just waited for her to finish,I could tell she was up for an arguement by her demenour.
    Finally I was allowed to go!
    It pays to stay calm and in the end she had doubled a coupon and given me discount twice....:)
    This was in T's & they did accept coupons printed from the net as long as they had T's or my name on.

    Well Done Snowbelle

    Glad you stood your ground, I have only been couponing since September 2012 and saved myself just under £300 in 2 months I can not believe it and would never go back now. I had a major showdown in Mr T's once where the coupon I gave had an identical barcode as it was a bog standard code. I had 6 managers over from different departments even claiming my coupons were fake. :eek: I went mad and showed them Mr T coupons for Heinz frozen meals with once again the same barcode on all 5 they eventually backed down and gave me my items. The thing that still bothers me are the huffers n puffers in the queue behind me lol
