    Hi all, my 1st post on here but had to share!

    Went to 2 T's yesterday with a list of bargain items-found ipad sleeve 7390 for £2.20, all Halloween illooms Shrek 905 for 75p and pumpkin 0073 and ghost 0851 at 88p.Was severely trouted at the till with my best buy though, Fisher Price Precious Planet mobile 6512 - OMG 58p!! Why oh why didn't I do ss! she was on a roll then and took away all my Melitta things but hadn't noticed the Harry's cashews 0339 yay!This store is T4lbot Gr££n xtra.

    Went to C&lverh0use X xtra then and found another FP mobile,tons more 1p things. Felt like a shoplifter scanning it all through ss! A word of warning to anyone who finds the Belkin ipad sleeve, it's tagged and will set off the alarm if you ss it!! Security man said £2.20 - that's a bargain! I said is it, I hadn't realised they were usually £20 lol!!!
    :) Learn from the past, enjoy and appreciate the present and work to make your future the best it can possibly be :)

    And get lots of glitches!

    Which T are you going to? There were a couple of penny trays hiding ;) at the big one.

    We went to the Broch for a change, sis is desperate to get some of those Lucozade shots.

    Thanks Nikki and fudge_cake. It's really weird as I should be making the most of getting a few things done at home but I'm so worried I'm going to miss them I keep find myself looking out the window every 2 minutes......

    I know I absolutely HATE waiting on deliveries and I always seem to be last on the route :mad: Fingers crossed it arrives ASAP and you can get on with your day....though it already looks like evening here, the sky is black and I've got the lights on!! :eek: Still it's a new day tomorrow :T

    Congrats on the whoopsie hunting!! Fab work :j I LOVE whoopsies!! But I've had the same problem, I always used to go to a huge Asda on Sunday afternoon but I had to give up because of a mega greedy mob that would block the shelves with their trollies and grab everything :mad: And worse still, I heard many a staff conversation about them, saying they were there every night :eek:Like you said, what do they do with it all??!!!! I've had to resign myself to the odd whoopsie now and again at my T's as I can't justify the petrol anymore, going all that way and coming back empty handed. Still the glitches and 1p finds go a long way to taming the whoopsie beast within!! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Ooh thanks for reminding me, I REALLY need to get some raspberries, I'm making some truffles and raspberry flavour are my bestie's favourite :)

    And I LOVE white roses, they're so elegant and beautiful. I'm sure your Mum will be chuffed :A
    This has been comparing and would bump up your cond spend nicely:

    Also if anyone else has anything to add, again I would be incredibly grateful :A

    Poundland have some nice ones with Tyre tread or football antislip shapes on the bottom

    Thanks I always get Poundworld & Poundland mixed up will have to check which is where. I also get Boyzone & Westlife mixed up although Batty mother took the biscuit on Sunday, watching X Factor Live, Westlife were singing says "Which ones dead ? " :eek:

    When I had stopped laughing I said none of them, they are all standing there singing & you are thinking of Boyzone

    Ahhhh - thats it then, im usually in before 12noon, I thought that if they wanted us to make use of them b4 they go outta date? But then thats why they are so reduced ! I get it ! So then do you just put them un the freezer rather than use them up? Thanks FK

    Yeah most of the meat or pies etc I freeze but my fridge runs nice and cold so I will from time to time eat something a day or so past its date without freezing it. I've not killed myself yet and I've been doing the whoopsies for many years now.

    The real jewel though is often the fruit, veg and salad stuff. Last night was bags of oranges for 14p, bags of spuds 20p, salad items 10p each etc etc.

    Last nights tea (around 1am lol) consisted of a whoopsied sirloin steak, one large portobello muchroom (deep fried) a handful of homemade chips and a salad. All whoopsied and total cost circa £1.30 ;)

    Oh pudding was a pair of egg custard tarts....6p :rotfl:

    The bottle of wine which washed it all down was free courtesy of the recent wine glitch added to a nice JTD voucher! :)
