Neeps comes from the word turnips, which is what us Scots call swede (well, you did ask), so neeps = swede.

Bashed and ready to serve with haggis et al.

No-one mentioned the black pepper and knob of butter!
Oh how I miss Invern355!!!! Got introduced to this when I lived up there for a number of years..... And the haggis just has to come from the butchers in Dingwall!!! They are the best :T

hi everyone long time lurker on this thread and the old one (11 not 12) :):) as i usually read the email of posts on my phone just before bed or before i get up in the morning - have just looked on here (actual thread not email) and cant believe theres over a hundred pages of posts in 2 weeks!!!! :eek::eek::eek: no wonder i havent been able to always catch up sometimes

anyway on the tesco front hope everyone had a good day glitching if they went - i think my tesco extra seems to always be on the ball as the only dtd ive had is the lemon meringue pies (which i thought didnt actually taste that nice :(:() although i did only start in june so ive still got plenty of time yet - mind you ive got quite a nice superdrug stash :T:T:T

btw tried the first of my heinz mini meals tonight it was the chicken and sweetcorn one and i thought it tasted absolutely awful so i wont be eating the other 5 anytime soon - i wonder if when i next make soup i can just chuck in a tin and disguise it???

Now for the reason I came here.... sorry its a bit late, but I have a list for any of you pet owners out there.....
One of my Mr T's actually had lots of correct SELs in the pet section.... but very little stock so I didn;t get much, but I thought of you lot and make a list in case they aren't changed in all stores.... Second store I checked only had some SEL's correct, so you may find a bargain.

Ok. So I figure most of you are safely tucked up in bed now and this might be a good time to finally face the bullet! :embarasse

It would appear that my late night post caused a bit of an argument earlier today and offended some of you.

I didn't read any of the following deleted posts (which may be for the better), as I was at a doctors appt this morning. It was only when I returned that I found out what had happened.

I have been off work for the past few weeks and rattling round the house becoming a bit of a hermit. It was only after finding the Mr T threads and all of you lovely people that I finally felt able to pick myself up a bit and go out, so I was absolutely devastated when I realised my post had been deleted and that I may have upset some of you, believe me it was not my intention at all :sad:

You have all been so helpful in the responses you have given to my post so far. As a newbie it is actually quite scary posting on these boards as you all know each other so well. A bit like trying to join the popular people at school when you know you quite obviousley don't fit in.

I've been quite worried about posting this all day and after moping for a while, decided to pay a trip to Mr T's (alright, I confess, 2 Mr T's) to try and cheer myself up.
I have now plucked up the courage to catch up on the posts since this morning and after reading those from ExTesco and others which now clarify Tescos position, (thank you all so much for doing this) I felt a bit better about it and hope that you will all give me another chance. I promise not to cause any more trouble.

And as an additional peace offering, I have some additional pet items for the offering, along with my first 1p find. Only some of these items were already on the shelf and a few marked with the actual price.

I'll admit, my local had a delivery of pet items sitting in a cage waiting to be put out, and after ignoring the same cage at the earlier store I visited and not having enough patience to wait until morning, I decided temptation was too much and snuck some bits off the cage for a price check (this was how I found my 1p item).

The sa on the pet aisle said that it was all new stock, so I don't know if some of the prices will change, but hopefully as the 2 stores I visited had their deliveries of the new items this evening, yours will too and you can get a head start.

I have listed the barcodes, where I have them but I'm afraid I haven't yet learnt how to post pictures and links, sorry.
HTH.

Staywell magnetic catflap (on website) - SEL £23.99, scans £2.87 (there was 2 of these left in W7st D*%rington, I took one and pushed the other to the back of the shelf, hopefully it's still there)


Pinched from delivery cage:
Petstages puppy cuddle pal dog toy (a smaller version of a wheatie, to keep your dog, or cat, warm)- bc 8 71864 00101 0 - 31p
Petstages Rag rope ball dog toy - bc 8 71864 00149 2 - 56p

Cat litter tray with hood (cream and green) - £3.75

There were also a rubber chicken dog toy and what was described as a cuddly safari toy (sorry couldn't get to these boxes) which I'm guessing will also scan quite cheap.


And lastly my first 1p find........

Talking animal dog toy - bc 5 052003 646056 - 1p
This looks just like a little cuddly toy and makes the appropriate animal noise when you squeeze it (I found a pig and a black cow). Not quite the 1p iron or oven finds but it made me smile to listen to them on my way home.


As an added extra, if anyone lives near enough to the W8st Dur*7ngton store and fancies some hair straighteners. I found a set of Phillips care ceramic straighteners there this eve at about 11.30pm (they close at midnight). It is the same set as I found myself a wk ago for £3, but I scanned to make sure and they are def same price. Sorry forgot to double check model no and barcode but the pair I have are model no HP8341/07, bc 8 710
103 523277 and this pair looked identical.

They are at the front by the tills sitting with some hair dryers on the top shelf above the display of hair stuff which is on the end of aisle. They had no SEL and also none in the usual place, so hopefully the sa's won't move them and no-one else will spot them.

Oh no, I have just realised that my post is now huge and will prob fill half a page!! Sorry guys this seems to be becoming a bit of a bad habit. I promise i'll keep it brief in future.

Well I am off to bed now and if I'm brave enough I'll pop back tomorrow.:undecided

Thanks
