    Am I a very sad person or what?My AF order arrived at about 11am and is now sat in the middle of the kitchen unopened...because I wanted the babies to go to bed so I can clean the kitchen and then unpack!

    Had a giggle at DH yesterday-we went into MrS to get some of the weight watchers soup that Flying Fresan posted about,also got yoghurts for DS1 for school.So leaving the store DH says "oh carp we gotta go back in there-we need nutella and penguins for his lunchbox too,so obviously I piped up that we have in stock at PP. He was really impressed:)

    Eddi, while youre at C0stc0 (if you havent gone yet) could you have a sqizz and see if they stock any weight watchers stuff please? I was going to go today but then i remembered my AF order. and im curious to know if they do because I picked up effectively 16 meals this weekend for roughly £13 which I think is realy good-but if I can bring it down that would be good.

    Certainly, I'll have a look while I'm there :)

    I keep looking at AF and haven't actually got round to ordering yet.

    Hello everyone!
    I have over £10 in my second purse I am so pleased!!
    My stockpile is worth about £80/£90 at the moment. I find I have to be very disciplined as it is very easy for me to get confused and lose the plot. Just going to do some research now on how to be creative with 4kg of bas#ati rice!

    oooh polka dot mine is due between half 2 & half 3! My kids think it is xmas when the boxes arrive lol i never get away with opening it myself ;) i have sadly cleaned my kitchen in anticipation for it though :p haha

    I dismantled the 5 boxes all neatly,"rescued" 5 packets of packing chips (I love how they didnt toss a load in so that you have to get it all over the house to unpack your goodies) and a box of bubble wrap.Ill ask DH to put them in the garage over the week end.We're moving house in June so it'll all come in handy:D

    Thanks DFW as I am going to place my order either tonight or tomorrow and need to refer SueP19, and wasn't quite sure what to do either, makes it all a bit clearer now. Fingers crossed I do it right now :rotfl::rotfl:

  • Can I just ask one question please? What do people do with their spreadsheets for their second purse, do they just have a continual sheet, or do you do it month by month/week by week and stock take at the time when you go onto a new sheet. Just wondering which is the most efficient way of doing it really.

    I thought you were gonna refer me- have I got it wrong??
    I think I might just place an order without being referred as I'm getting very confused!!!(easily done!!)
    Anyway, if I don't hear anything different, I'll just place an order tomorrow.

    Gah! Just noticed someone has pinched a loo roll from my shop without telling me, there's still loo roll in the bathroom so not sure what's happened. Also, how does a house of 2 people get through 18 loo rolls in 3 months when one of them works away all the time??? In fact said loo roll is MIA so where it's gone I have no idea, I shall have to quiz OH when he gets home hmm....
