Nope it was me well half a dozen of them anyway, I did leave some on the strip :rotfl:- thought they'd be good to put in with Xmas cards for the family mext year. Also managed to get the dotty wipeclean tablecloth for 54p too - sorry took last one.
Best bargain I got in the last couple of days was actually at sainsbobs - pack of 12 vacuvin Christmas Wine glass markers - not with the xmas sale stuff but on a clipstrip with the crockery and glasses - 10p down from £3.50 :beer:

Thanks for clearing my name. I WAS AT WORK

Errrr have you not just been posting on that thread giving off to people who have been trouted because the staff were eagle eyed?

Eagle eyed - they were buying a dozen items and spending under £1 - and wondered why they were spotted.

3Dogs

Been catching up on here as I watched tv so took longer than normal, but happy to report from my trip to March Mr T

Ben 10 figures 17p
Dr Who figures in bubble pack - 40p
Gormiti Starter pack - 20p
Medium sized bouncy glitter balls - 36p
Tent pegs - 62p
Selection of girls headbands, flower slides, ponybands, etc - 50p each

Not much on the reduced counter but got cous cous for 16p, 2 x packs of pastrami 40p each, and tomato salad 28p. Then the SA reduced sliced beef heart (for doggies) to 38p, and lamb joint (original price £8) to £1.60 so was a happy chappess, plus got chopped onions for 5p, ripe papaya 15p, 3 x passion fruit 10p from fruit & veg reduced shelf

I only went for mullerlights ...... oh and I got a 6 pack of those reduced to £1.15 too

The extending lead for small dogs I got last week for £1 were labelled up at £6 now, so I got one to check price, but forgot to scan it, and it went through the till at £9.99 :eek: Got to return for DTD tomorrow 2 x £3.99 = £7.98 DTD so will cost £1.02 which is a good price for a spare lead

BUT for the first time in at least 2 months, I got a till slip. It was on my second lot of shopping which cost £9.73 and was for £6 when you spend £40. I have been 'resting' my main clubcard but used it for my first shop, for £40+, hoping for a CS, but, as I say, it was my second shop, with the clubcard I have been using for the last 2 months which resulting in the CS

Wowzers, that's a mighty fine stash you got there Caz :T:j

That's not actually my stash That's just my day-to-day stuff to save me going up to the attic as often. Ok I admit the loo rolls & tissues are all I have but the rest of the toiletries are stashed away. I'd take a pic but the attic is literally bursting at the seams. I should be grateful for the stuff I have but I miss not being able to go up to the attic and admire it as it's all hidden behind Xmas trees & more storage boxes with cheap toys! :rotfl:

There's a thread on the OS board about the takeaway secret and the recipes. There's pics too of the recipes, so you get an idea of what the finished meal will look like. I'd definitely reccommend the lamb doner(sp?):D

HTH

I bought this book last year and use it a lot, but regarding the donner kebab recipe it is great just like from the takeaway and all the kids eat it also try the burger bit if you buy the book as i make my own know and the kids are always asking if i will MAKE them a McDonalds

Not sure which Tesco glitch you are referring to as there isn't a true glitch on the go at the minute. It's all about looking for 1p items and cheap toys.

Yes, one of the people you were posting in reply to was trying to get away with spending less than £1 but the other one was 'trouted' when the SA decided to check if the promo was working as the poster described.

I honestly think most of us must have addictive personalities!!
I know, I'm a bit like that when I discover something new.....I become a bit obsessed with it!!!
If I had to have an addiction though, I'd rather it was saving money, than gambling or drinking it away!
I'm like you on the paying full price for anything.....I hate it!
My friend who visited yesterday brought her slippers (!!)....very nice they were, but she'd paid £40 for them!!! Fit flots (sp?)
I bought some tonight that aren't that dissimilar to look at for £1 :rotfl::rotfl:

On the addiction bit i hate gambling on the oh moaning about how much i drank the night before :rotfl:

Don't be !!!!! That deserves a round of applause!! :T:T:T:T:T I would love to have been so savvy back in DTD days but unfortunately that was only the start of my MSE adventure and I was far too naive :mad::o I've learnt the hard way to take advantage of a glitch when it comes along now. My OEP haul was testament to that....though I gave nearly all of it away ....so maybe not as savvy as I claim to be! Oh well, share the glitch love! :rotfl:

Yep still on as far as I am aware but it seems that there are some stores becoming wise to the glitch now.

How are you doing grumpys1daughter? Don't think we have spoke for a week or so now :)xx
