Evernine!

Then tried T3tbury, nowt! Won't bother there again, best way home is through Ciren so stopped off at the big Waitrose, BIG MISTAKE. For my freezer that is

2 unsmoked gammon joints, I overheard the bloke saying "we don't even need to sell them until next week but the manager wants the xmas stock gone!", so SBD of 13th Jan!

My MSE ears pricked right up on hearing him but I'd only gone in with a basket so I picked up a joint marked down to £6.40 from a whopping £31.50! :j:j:j:j and two lots of Kestrel (???) potatoes marked down to 19p a bag. Paid, went back in with a trolley and got another down to £3.66 from £13.22, VERY pleased and will be going back there again!!

Hope everyone's had a good day? I really need to start looking around for that second freezer, god knows what I'm going to do with all this ham......

Nice one!!!

My new freezer arrived today so am off whoospying tomorrow evening-i think waitrose may have just added themselves to my list-now a 6 store hit instead of 5 :j

Had a useless day in Mr T's and a brilliant one in Mr W's, went to Pig Hill for whoopsies, nothing whatsoever that I'd consider even half decently priced, so tried Cir3nc3st3r, lots of 1p veg crisps but nothing else, plentiful but pitiful whoopsies, things marked down to £4.39 from £4.99, that sort of thing, did however get a sneaky price match on some light bulbs that scanned through at £3.47 but all the vaguely corresponding labels stated £2.47 or £2.50, went to CS who were completely useless, woman said "well I don't know without going to check", so I waited for her to say she's check or get someone to, nothing so walked off in a huff.

Went to SS till, asked guy there who looked a helpful sort to find out how much they should be, said I'd been to CS and they'd been no help. He got someone (turned out to be a manager) to check who also couldn't find a corresponding label so took me to a till and got the SA to mark all six down to £2.50 each - woohoooo!!!!

Meant to say, Mr W also has the heinz beans tubs for £1 but for all you bakers out there, I found a new bargain. This stuff is fab but pricey....
