I've managed to get everything for my pots of gold even got boxes of 16 ferro rocher for £2 in the coop,they were clearing them to make way for the fancy shaped double/treble the price boxes.

I'm very jealous of this-ferro rocher are our favourites so this year we have decided instead of buying the big tins of assorted chocs and always having some left that nobody likes we are just going to buy loads of these. Waiting for a good price though.

I'm sure somebody on here was asking about 3 for 2 on bikes - I don't think it's included at Argos, but it is at Homebase which now also has a 3 for 2

Just goes to show what I know, didn't even realise Homebase sold bikes.

It might have been me, thanks! I got them in Argos, only certain bikes we included so I go 2 and this go kart for free, I'm well chuffed

Thanks them back and get a refund, I would! I hate it whe they put things on 'promotion' or 'special offer' you have to be really careful as often they aren't any cheap just the size is smaller or something, they said that about some of the food in pound land, it seams better value, but its often smaller weights so works out more expensive..but suppose that's why they are so successful!

Yea i'm gonna find the receipt and do that. I saw that program about the pound shop too

has any one tried the cookie mix in a jar thingy? just saw some whilst browsing christmas sites (lol, i just googled how to make christmas magical) they look inexpensive and easy to make, but just wondered if anyone had given these as gifts? thinking maybe for mil and sil?
