Have sent an email to them now, so will let you know (and the other person - sorry can't remember who it was now) what the outcome is:D

It was me!

I like that idea too-last week I got a pack of 25 different coloured sharpies (for colour coded house move) in C0stc0 for £10 (with VAT )and a label maker for £9.

Swooon - I have sharpie envy. Thought I was a nerd having freezer sharpies in pink and aqua to match my kitchen

Thanks Fozzie - had a quick look on their forum but couldn't find the answer to my question, but think I will post a question myself and didn't even think of looking on fb (off she totters to have a look:rotfl::rotfl:)

Polkadot, how many of them are there left? I've found that if there are only a few left then I'd buy it now. It might go down in price, it might go up, but that's the nature of it. Does camel tell you what the lowest ever price has been? That'll give you an idea of whether it will go down further or not.

Thank you:) I cant remember if it said how many there were,or what its lowest has been.Will have a look

Im really sad when it comes to labelling-I didnt know though untilI saw them that you got them in anything but blue and black.

Hi everyone, just time for a really quick update. Hardly spent anything from the SP this week. Just topped up on a few toiletries as I had some coupons. This week I spent out £7.38 but put in £29.26 so a profit of over £20! Thanks as always to everyone here!

Just grabbing my 2 choc bars and 2 bottles of pop for my car journey to bmth and back. Normally costs me £2 each way, but the SP only spent about £1 in total maybe less the SP.

For this particular shop it was a £10 voucher I won for the 99p shop and a £10 love2shop voucher left over from the £100 I got when I changed my electric which I used in Wilkins0ns :rotfl:

But other vouchers I get off the coupons board, facebook or just writing to the companies when im not happy, or to praise them when I like their product
