    Wow, well done IS, great prize. :j:j:j

    Asda christmas puddings (the choosen by you extra matured etc) are reduced to 50p now. I did think about taking back the 12 I got which were reduced to £1 the other day, but decided against it seeing as they were nearly all paid for with wombled apg's. I wonder if my sis still only wants 6 or wants more now :D The date is June 2013.

    No wombled receipts for me today, but it was only a small ex netto so didn't expect any. Tomorrow I'm going wombling/spending my large apg's.
    Be thankful for what you have because it could all be taken away tomorrow.;)

    I bought 3 granary loaves of Hovis Homebake just before Christmas from Asda (actually they were free with the coupons) - I went to use one of them today, with an expiry date of 17th Jan on, and it was covered in blue mould. :eek: I checked the other two and they seem to be OK, although they don't seem quite so appealing now! I feel an email to Hovis coming on!
