    kerri did you order your suma oats from rainforest? I was waiting till I gor another voucher so I would have enough - looked this morning and the price was £25 I am sure it was £13 last time I looked:eek:
    You just made me panic! It's Suma Oats 10kg @ £12.08 on subscribe and save (just remember to cancel the subscription when it arrives, I've done this and it works fine). It works out £1.21/kg so even cheaper than any offers I've seen in the SM recently :D

    I found the expensive one too lol, but this is nearer what I'd want to pay, £1.21 /Kg is not bad at all, well spotted Kerri. I have 2 x 1 KG packets in stock, so its on my list for this month, I'm waiting till the end of the month to buy it when I pay the 2nd Purse what I owe. Another good thing about the 2nd Purse , ye can get 'tick' ( Credit) Lol, canny see a SM doing that then :rotfl::rotfl:

    I'm glad I emptied the 3rd Purse at the start of the challenge, I'm used to buying what I want when I want, so not having it has made me work harder.

    I wouldn't mind a few of these, great find.

    The nurse has just been , I've been taken off the offending meds, get this, no apology, just... I wish she'd said (I did ) she was finding it difficult, that drug is EXPENSIVE! I was taking it , but had to miss it if I needed to do something or go out, all that pain and discomfort for so long, and my poor OH, he's had to do most of the HW when I took it, I couldn't even bend, or lie down to sleep, not that I did much of that.
    Sorry about the moans. I must say I'm relieved to be off it, and I'm too tired to be angry.

    Afternoon folks....here is my shopping list, Second Purse spends are in green, normal spends in purple! Prices are for the totals, so for the tomatoes, it's 38p per tin.

    20 Tesco Value Chopped Tomatoes 400G £7.60 (Buying half with second purse, half from normal grocery!) 40p when buying from 2nd purse, 2p profit
    5 Spontex Non Scratch Washups 2 Pack £1.65 50p when buying from 2nd purse 17p profit
    4 Radox Shower Gel/Shampoo For Men 250Ml £3.60 £1 when buying from 2nd purse, 10p profit
    1 Weight Watchers Toffee And Vanilla Yogurt 4X120g £1.30 £1.30
    2 Palmolive Liquid Handwash Antibac+ 300Ml £1.72 £1 when buying from 2nd purse, 14p profit
    1 Branston Beans In Tomato Sauce 4 X 410G £1.28 £1.50 when buying from 2nd purse, 22p profit
    5 Fox's Caramel Rocky 9 Pack £3.95 £1 when buying from 2nd purse, 21p profit
    2 Richmond 12 Thick Pork Sausages 681G £3.00 £3 when buying from second purse, £1.50 profit
    2 Dove Invisible Antiperspirant Deodorant 250Ml £5.00 £3 when buying from 2nd purse, 50p profit
    1 Youngs Omega 3 20 Fish Fingers 500G £1.99
    1 Colgate Max White Toothbrush Medium £1.00
    3 Weight Watchers Rocket And Mozzarella Pasta Sauce 350G £3.00
    2 Weight Watchers Cheese Puffs 5 Multipack £2.00
    4 Tesco 2 Cod Fishcakes £6.00
    4 Tesco Healthy Living Skinless Chicken Breast Fillets £8.00

    Total spend = £51.09 but I have a coupon so that's £41.09

    From this, £24 is from my second purse and £18.09 is from my normal food shopping.

    So, how do my offers look? Is there anything I could get cheaper elsewhere that I've missed? What else is on a good deal in Tesco just now? I'm not picking the order up until Monday as I don't get paid till then, so I've tried to only pick things that will be on offer until then.
