    Not sure if these have been mentioned. Mens black knitted F&F gloves barcode 5052319096477 priced at £1.50, went through at 4p. They were in the ladies section in R0y5t0n, I only picked them up because I thought that they were ladies! Went back in for some more and looked in mens dept. They had £2.00 on them and scanned at that price. (Thank goodness for the ssin theclothes dept). Went back to ladies bit at the front and got another few pairs. There were a few left, they are on a hanging strip. Also lots of the Rugby socks left. Lots of Ocean Moon dough as well - scanning at £2.00. Nivea Cool Kick shaving gel - sel big2f, next to a big b1g1f sign, so only bought 3. No discount came off at all, so DTD of £7.40.

    strange question. but does anyone know where i can get a purple poppy? the red ones are for the dead humans, the purple ones are for the animals that died in active service. thanks in advance.

    I googled purple poppies & got this and a few other results

    Ok... you got me. My name is Lisa and i'm a Mr Ts addict. (incidentally I have been thinking about where rehab would be for all of us... Waitrose /M&S having to buy everything at full price perhaps??)

    Anyway the past 2 days my lunch hours have been spent rummaging round Tesco's primarily for flash wipes and tights. Yesterday was a washout. Today was going the same way until I spotted the thing i most wanted... Cars Ready Bed with a SEL of £16, check at the scanner and going through at £32.97. Swiped the one left off the shelf, paid and went to CS to get my first DTD so got my son this for Xmas for FREE!!! Well actually was paid £1 to take it away. My son is going to get loads of great goodies this Christmas without mummy and daddy breaking the bank! :j:j:j

    Hey my 16 yr old wants to be an actuary and is already looking at uni's and is thinking of Manchester. ( I didn't even know what an actuary was lmao):rotfl:

    Congratulations to your son:j

    We didnt have a clue either, I had to google it when he said it a few years back as well! Loads and loads of training and studying, I think they still have to study while their working after uni for another 3-4 years to qualify, but it seriously pays off on the salary front at the end:)
    Beware!!!! Glitching is addictive:rotfl:

    I found mine just sitting alone in a big box and didnt realise what they were at first as they're flatpacked. Between me and my mum we picked up about 9, but we fell in love with them.;)
