    Just come across shortersclub it's a wholesalers cash n carry type place in Wimbledon that delivers, I've done a few comparisons and they look to be competitively priced so might save a few pennies. Don't forget to compare per 100g though :)

    We have been very lucky this year as DH got a bonus thats equivalent of 3 months salary. Im going to take £100 for each child and hit Primarni-I know it doesnt seem a lot-but in that store in kiddies clothes it gets you lots.Im still toying with taking an extra amount for the second purse from that but then dont want to as Ill feel like Ive cheated.

    I don't think your cheating, just a little envious, only a little, better in YOUR pocket than theirs :j:j:j:j

    I love this thread.................off to Mr S's tonight they have their finest beefburgers and sausages on 3 for £6 and as they are £3 each normally gonna get a few of those, they are on offer till 13/03

    I have decided to spend 50% of each weeks SuePees Stash shops takings on re-stocking, otherwise I will end up spending it all every week :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: It's very easy to get carried away :D

    ETA: Heads up on the Daily Mirror today they have a voucher for £5 of a £30 spend at A!di, trouble is what with this and meal planner etc my shopping is only coming to £20!!!!!

    I'm heading off for my Daily Mirror now. My shopping list only comes to £24 from Aldi, but I suppose I could find something for the shop LOL .
    Thats a good Deal from Tesco's might hit that on my next shopping trip.

    Grrrr, still waiting for my C00p to get 2 x 9pk of white loo roll so I can get the 2 for £5.50 for my as yet, un-named 'shop'. They only had cream on Tuesday, and 1 x pack of white yesterday. Wouldn't mind but we are down to our last roll :eek:

    Must think of an inventive name for my shop......(wanders off, muttering.....)

  • Not one of lifes essentials but I like Wotsits :D and they have 2 offers in Sainsburys so watch out for this.

    Wotsits buy 3 x 6 for £3.50 is 19p a packet, not bad I thought

    But they also have BOGOF on packs of 14 Wotsits so 2 x 14 for £3.19 which is only 11p a packet!

    I had been getting them in Iceland where they were 1/2 price AND 50% extra free for a while :T but that's finished now.

    Magnum Equador x 3 are half price at £1.49 (delicious and very dark choccie so you can almost pretend its good for you ;)) but I only buy when 1/2 price.

    Harpic Powerplus Liquid is half price at 99p and in my opinion the absolute best loo cleaner, the only thing that shifts the limescale in this very hard water area.

    I'm going to use the £5 voucher to stock the shop a bit - mainly on passata probably then buy it back from myself later!
