    Also the wrapped thorntons choclates have a sel saying £2, a elderly lady picked up a box of unwrapped ones which were £7 so I pointed the others out to her. She kept saying are you sure they're the right ones.

    Think I must of missed this, what ones are they? Tia

    I'm not a shoplifter but I would imagine that after being caught once I would either:

    - try in a different store

    or more likely

    - NOT DO IT AGAIN

    How can someone get caught 2 times in the same store and carry on being allowed in until he gets to the magic 5 times caught? As you say, one rule eh?

    Completely OT and Sainsbobs rather than T's.....but if you are not too fussy about your coffee....have you tried Sainsbobs basics?
    I don't mind it at all for an everyday coffee and save the good stuff for when we have guests or fancy something a bit posher. It's also really good to use in my OH's flask he takes to work.
    I always add coffee mate to my coffee anyway and HAVE to put milk in before I add the boiling water ( believe me, your coffee tastes so much better like this!!!) but for 47p a 100g bag i think it's brilliant.
    My FIL who drinks nothing but coffee (or beer!) has been converted.
    Just thought I'd mention it....
    My husband says he will leave me if I don't stop shopping......... God I will miss that man.
  • If anyone is running short of Comfort Pure it is £1.80 in T and £1.00 in A (750ml) so should give a JTD of 80p meaning 25p a bottle total if you still have the pdf.
    If you're not scared, you're not paying attention

    Huge thanks gardenia for linking this here - didn't really take much notice of this thread on Grabbit, but well worth reading the whole thread as basically it means approx £18 of vitamins and energy shots for free AND approx £2.80 off your shopping. Need to buy 6 of the shots and 6 of the 79p vits for this to work best but you can get more expensive vitamins and have less "overage" (think that is the correct term that I have learned from this thread?).

    You can do 3 shots and 3 of the 79p vits to work as well. Obviously 6 of each gives you more off and 9 of each even more and so on.

    Log into Clubcard
    Down the left hand side click 'Your Points'
    On screen I see a table with 'Collection Period' 'Summary' and 'Detail'
    If I click 'View' in the 'Detail' column for any collection period I see:

    Card number - Date pts added - Transaction details - Total points - More info
    If I click on 'More info' I get a pop-up showing:

    Transaction Details


    Card Number 634004 XXXX XXXX XXXX
    Date of transaction XX/XX/2011
    Transaction type TESCO XXXXXXX NI
    Total points XX
    Amount Spent £XX.XX

    Yep, that's what I got shown, thanks caz for putting more detail than I did :D.

    Just back from Mr T and Sainsbob's at Kn0cknag0n3y and Holywood Exchange and now remember why I don't go to that tesco's first thing on a Monday, the fresh bakery stuff was just just being put out but I couldn't get any fresh rolls because the delivery hadn't come in yet and the bakery weren't making any because the guy who does them had phoned in sick!! This seems to happen in that store quite often.
    Managed to get some in Sainsbobs though so not too bad. I also got some of the reduced xmas stuff. A lot of the gift sets at under £1 but a lady had got there before me and had filled her trolly with most of the single bits and pieces. :(
    I got
    a pooh and tigger wash bag buddies for 40p, the have a fabric head plastic bag body which holds 2 little bottles of bath stuff - a few pooh ones left
    a santa mug with mini marshmallows for 35p - lots left
    cadburys xmas tree chocs 10p - lots left
    basics star pretzles 10p - lots left
    tubs of mini cheddars 30p - lots left also chezlets and cheddar footballs

    There were a lot of soft santas and reindeers with choc coins for 50p and a few bits and pieces most scattered over the store in bits and pieces HTH :)
    SPC #329 £471/£500 banked
    SPC 2014 £1100:D

    I've seen tv's with the man on in my local but nothing else, perhaps i'll scan them :)

    I scanned one a couple of days ago, it came up the same price as the one on the shelf above (same TV but newer packaging I think). However, the one I scanned (man on front) had a * on the label so may be one to watch :D

    Sorry..... afternoon all :wave:

    Back to finish catching up :)
