Hi Brizzle, you are officially the loo roll Queen. Just take when going to Costc@, I wouldn't want you to come down with Costco-itis as well as MrT
. All I know is they do a mean carrot cake :T.

I've never been to Costco
. All I know is they do a mean carrot cake :T.
Oh their carrot cake is amazing... I have to avoid that area of the shop as they have a habbit of jumping into my trolly unassisted if I pass within 1 meter! They're huge for £9.99 too, but freeze pretty well. My next Costc0 trip is on Friday - how will I resist?!?!MFW: Nov 2008 £156k, Jun 2015 £129k, Jun 2017 £114k.1 -
Morning, 58p a/c tidy OP made
Food money due in today from lodger so will OP once it hits the bank.
Think I may need a trip to C@stco to try carrot cake as it's one of my favourites. MRN, good to know it freezes
NSD yesterday. I need to pop and buy some clothes for a relative tonight so will fail on NS today.
That's all, I have calls from 7am :eek: so need to get cracking.
Best wishes

Cake? Freeze? That's like 'what to do with left over wine' - computer says 'no' :rotfl:.A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effortMortgage Balance = £0

Yeah, I can see where you're coming from. But say if people who you didn't want to share your delicious cake/wine with were turning up at your house... the freezer would be a great place to put the cake in safe storage.;)MFW: Nov 2008 £156k, Jun 2015 £129k, Jun 2017 £114k.1

Good morning, trip to Costc@ at lunch time and I'm trying the carrot cake
Lodger money OPd, no pennies to tidy away. When the rain stops today I am taking some time out for a dog walk, it was a ridiculously long day yesterday and I could do with some fresh air.
I didn't manage to go clothes shopping for relative, so will do that late afternoon. I have researched online though, so hopefully can just pop in and buy things
Have a great day and only 6 more work days until work is over for a while :T

Hi TYO, I can't remember how much the membership was, but I did work out that the money saved from milk and waters for school lunches would offset the fee over the course of a year
I can hear the rain whilst typing this and it's pouring down. It's days like this I wish I had a real fire to snuggle in front of.

Hi TYO, around 3pm today I'll make a cup of tea, slice the cake and we'll have a virtual afternoon tea
