Yes I ventured to Ts on Black Saturday.

The clipstrip marinades in my Extra are back to 79p :eek:

I find the Dorman's Spicy Peanuts just a little too spicy but alternating them with a chunk of CDM does the trick.

AAAAAnyyway, did a lot of scanning today. Sort of successful on this:

Tesco Star Wipe Clean Tablecloth SEL £12 scanning at £1:j:j



http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.210-8711.aspx

All the other tablecloths I scanned were priced as per SEL.

Also whispered "goody bags?" to the pharmacy lady, she gave me two :T

They are worth getting, the contents seem to vary but there was a few MOC coupons for Seven Seas Jointcare £2, Belle Hair colour £2, 100 CC points wys £5 at the pharmacy, plus some sample vitamins, granola, stain remover, kids apple puree. (They also have something like this in Boots, both of them you're supposed to sign up for a repeat prescription service.)

I picked one up yesterday that had a bottle of contact lense solution , 30 echinacea tabs, a bottle of vitamin water, samples of tea and a strepsil sample. I got one like yours a couple of weeks ago so think mine may be the new one. The lense solution was on the shelves for £10.00 plus so a great freebie for my DD

pls can i ask a completely off topic question

can anyone remember which week in jan the boots 75% sale was last yr and also the the lloyds sale?

(i know the easiest thing would be for me to check my bank statements, they were drowning in lloyds debits before they started drowing in tesco debits:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:)

just googled it. you might find this thread helpful

Afternoon all

3dogs it's taking me so long to catch up and have so much wrapping to do as my mum buys (actually I buy for her) about 100 presents for all my aunts, uncles, cousins, their children and their children. As well as insisting on doing all my DDs a stocking!!! About third through hers and not even started on my own this OEP glitch has waylaid me somewhat. Do you think Happy would give me a raincheck until the New Year as I have my hands full caring for mum too. You never know New Years Eve Celebrating might produce some interesting pics though I'm not promising.

Of course hun, New Year it is

just looked into this a bit more - supposidly, if your waters break whilst in Ts or As.. they give you free Nappies for a year....???!!!!!!


a few different stores do different things, but i recon it would depend on the managers etc, not actual store policy.

worth a try though eh!!!

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::T:T:T:T:T:T:T DEFINITELY!

Let me know how it turns out, can't wait to make mine Even though I hate rich fruit cake:p

You can always pull something large and accommodating over your PJs if you are nipping out... (be careful not to get into an accident after the recent anecdotes though :eek: )

I am being serious about the tin of Fox biscuits though.

I love choccie biscuits but these are just humongous discs of inferior chocolate with a tiny tuppence worth of biscuit sliver at the bottom.

Yuck yuck yuck.

If you were local, you could gladly have em!

Luckily my pj day actually turned into a jog bottoms and hoodie day so I may very well venture to T's at Whoopsie o clock later to try and track down some cheap fruit and veg

Lol!! I must have inferior taste:rotfl:I actually bought one of the £3 boxes of Fox's choccie biccies yesterday as I needed to grab something for the OEP glitch:p

What a shame....what an offer! Thanks for the thought JumbleJack:T:T:beer:

And Celebrate.....you go girl!!! I've yet to get a golden DTD but I live in hope:D:D
