    Have to admit when I have partaken of the wine myself I have bought gig tickets..., didn't even realise it till the tickets arrived

    But I have seen Aha live ( brilliant band live) who are someone I would never have thought I would see .... And def lepard ( not so great live... But I like their music) .... And war of the worlds ( utter rubbish ... But we complained and for free tickets to go an see Twisted Sister ... Who has been on my top ten bands I wanted to see for the longest time )

    I now don't drink much ... Wonder why :)

    Costco receipt dug out, Velvet costs 39.7p per roll (and i've just bought 2 x 5 x 9roll packs and guess what, they have an offer starting tomorrow where the Velvet will be 10 x 4 roll pack for £10.42 inc VAT, so 26.05p per roll:mad::mad::mad:.

    They also have offers on 5lt Flash liquid and various washing powder / tablets / liquitabs! Oh and vitimins too, which might be useful if we're all starving ourselves!


    hi Polly can you direct me to where the leaflet is for the moth for costco i cant seem to find it in the usual place... i'm thinking of nipping in for the toilet rolls and soap powder ( i buy big boxes) if it's cheap enough

    i also fancy seeing if the mince or chicken has anything on special ... although not too desperate for the mince etc noiw as i have found a place that does a Kg of mince for £7.50 an a Kg of chicken for £4.90

    but i do like costco meat so would buy some if it was in special

    just dont want to have to drive allk the way to costco for a couple of things as it would mean i am not really getting a bargain ( 30 mins there and 30 mins back for me )
