    Good afternoon everyone xxxxx

    Just got back from T's... got a fantastic DTD with the batteries!!!!

    In the BOGOF clip strips it states £4.47 but scan at full price and no BOGOF (only the AAA didnt scan at this price, the AA scanned at the reduced price, which was £4.47)... paid £58 (I think, Ive lost the receipt) and got just over £76 back!!!!!! The store was in total uproar because of it!!!!! the staff were running around like headless chickens because it it!!!! oops!!!! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: The stupid thing was.... wait for it!!!!! I forgot my £1 off duracell coupons!!!!!!!!! grrrrrrrrrrrrrr

    I managed to get 8 nappies for my niece.. Thank you OP and thank you bensonsmum for making sure I knew I about it!!!! Thanks hun..
    We are now arranging a T's holiday if someone interested!!!! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: name's to Bensonsmum!!!! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    This one is more for Nikkilala...... and who ever else loves candles (like I do)

    Right on the top of the shelves (above the stock) I found some Touch of luxury colour light changing candles, mulled wine & cinnamon apple scanning at £1.50!!!!! Got 10 of these. On the box it stated "Old promotion"..

    I managed to find the benetick's Mint collection hidden behind the easter eggs.... as well as th Dessert Chocolate collection for 1p each!!!!!

    I got 5 Ambi Pur Nevada Desert Flower reed diffuser for £1.75 each..

    I wish I could find more of the bendicks mints, they'd be ideal for my DD's 18th party.... grrrrrrrrrrrrr But hay, Im not complaining!!!!! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    9 pack penguin mint flavour was 40p in my store... discontinued ...

    the girls that raided lidl this morning for the cellophane wrap, did you notice they had matching ribbon as well? 5metres for 99p.

    Drat didn't see that
    Is that a good deal then, how much does it cost on fleabay?

    The cellophane is a bargain, I got a flimsy 10m roll on the free £5 eBay deal,

    Might offer to get my SIL the pampers just remembered I have a till spit for 100 points when you buy pampers active, also got 2 £6 off £40 till spits burning a hole in my purse, anyone successfully used 2 of these in one transaction spending less than £80 pls or does the till reject them?

    Hi All,

    Managed to find 8 TCO and 20 BPO all through a manned till.

    I also managed to get 2 packs of Lurpack £2 and used the voucher so 50p each. Didn't buy anything else and worked so will be stocking up.

    Me too ... and a Gillette razor to get 5p off diesel

    Sorry just read rules re swapping But I am still interested in can any one use the tickets

    Don't encourage her!!

    Anyway, you're not a delicate little woman and my sis is. If anything happened to her I'd have the hassle of going to the hospital, the police and god knows what else. Not to mention the grief I'd get from mum when we eventually got home.:(

    How's the holiday H.C ?

    don't think westie is as delicate as you think :rotfl:

    can't wait to see the pictures

    speaking of, if u see any local art prints grab me one or two please

    pay you for them when u get back, and p&p

    cheers

    Playing catch up, about 4 hours behind, but the chat about Tricia and ciggies caught my eye.

    Dont forget that if you make it until Tuesday without smoking you will have done the toughest part.

    Also I meant to say Lala in my previous post - 4 months now.
    Have to agree here, Tricia. :)

    ExTesco is absolutely right; if you can get to Tuesday without a cig, you can stop. The nicotine in your body telling you you want a fag will be just about totally gone. :D
    Within 72 hours:

    Your entire body will test 100% nicotine-free and over 90% of all nicotine metabolites (the chemicals it breaks down into) will now have passed from your body via your urine. Symptoms of chemical withdrawal have peaked in intensity, including restlessness. The number of cue induced crave episodes experienced during any quitting day will peak for the "average" ex-user. Lung bronchial tubes leading to air sacs (alveoli) are beginning to relax in recovering smokers. Breathing is becoming easier and the lungs functional abilities are starting to increase.


    More here: http://whyquit.com/whyquit/a_benefits_time_table.html

    You won't need a ciggie; that's just you making excuses. :p

    See my siggie (about ciggies) below. I was 30 years a smoker; I will never smoke again (need the money for all the drugs keeping me alive. :D:p:D)

    And just wait till you sit next to a smoker on a bus :eek:; realising that you once smelled like that will make you so glad you stopped.

    Lots of support on here, love. We'll help and encourage you.

    Don't forget the MSE side: Mrs OB and I have already got over £300 (each) saved towards our hols in France this year. That's in just over 9 weeks. :T

    Just my tuppence worth.

    OB
