Thanks for this - im might go try it later then - i haven't had the nerve as I didn't quite understand it ! I could add some baby wipes in I think - something I need !

You don't need to worry, after all how would you know there's an almighty mistake about to hugely benefit you?;););)

Just make sure you buy enough additional stuff to cover the extra credit, buy in multiples of 3 or ideally 6 and choose the most friendly looking sales assistant!

If they do ring head office like they did with me today, HO told them that the glitch stays as it is and you get the free stuff, SA's are not allowed to alter it themselves so just take it and run!:T:T:T

I'm going to one now.

I buy the big tubs of ready to use garlic.
Lasts me six weeks and at a fraction of the cost of normal garlic. Might post a pic when I get back.

I feel guilty buying chicken from them though but it is such good value.
I try not to think of it

Is it? I've seen the whole skinned chickens on the meat counter but never really looked that well, tbh I rarely eat meat and if I do its a thin slice of chicken breast without any skin on it, if I see skin or bones I cant eat it

It's took a while but I've learnt their's no such thing as going OTT on a glitch when it's household stuff that you'll always use. The amount of times I could have kicked myself a few months later for not getting enough of something!!!That's why I've had my shelves strengthened!!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Very very true I've just bought 360 washes of Ariel for £23.50 from Mr S and I have 16 bottles of Comfort Pure My toiletries and household cupboard is always full!:rotfl::rotfl:

I am off to the Asian supermarket tomorrow I get 5 big bunches of coriander for £1, 5 x 500ml tubs natural yogurt £1, the 400g bags of spices are cheaper than the swartz (sp) tiny jars in T's plus the fruit/veg/salad items are so much cheaper, garlic is sold by the kilo each head works out around 8p

Just a piece of info on peppercorns for grinders for the fussy or unwary.
I was shopping for these a while ago when I bumped into an Asian friend. I commented on how much cheaper the bags of peppercorns were in the world foods compared to the other varieties on the normal shelves. He told me that they are not the same thing as the normal ones have part of the husk removed to make them milder and more refined which is partly why they are more expensive. (He didn't buy either as he brings his spices back from visits home:rotfl:)

Bought some anyway and found that they were a bit coarser in terms of "pepperiness" but suited me fine. OH however didn't like them.

For all the doctors and other interested parties here, I've just got back from the docs.

He took blood pressure inc listening to my pulse as he did so, checked pulse, lungs heart, glands etc etc. Could find nothing and said no indication of lung infection or fluid.

I've had blood taken and will be checked for glucose, kidney function and thyroid and have to gofor a chest xray and ECG next week.

I was worried before today, now I'm terrified!!! lol

I know how you feel, I went to a new cfs consultant this week who asked me alot of questions about my relationship then said have you ever had a hiv test :eek::eek:
I told her I was really scared by that question and she checked and they had done one when I had full bloods done. I suffer from anxiety as well so that really would have worried me if I hadn't asked. She also asked about dementia in the family. I left feeling worse.:rotfl:

I hope you feel better soon.
