    Well done Snap-ant, yep, takes some organising into different shopping receipts!

    The sugar value is very good. For those who would find a 5Kg bag rather heavy, poundland do a 1.2kg pack of sugar, for £1~of course! so that's almost as good. buy 4 packs and that's 5kg for £4.

    Just popped on to say thanks to the OP (scarlini maybe??) for the info on the nescafe 300g. Went looking for bbq stuff but no sign of any stickers so thought Id check the coffee.......big empty space in the nescafe section:mad: but then this little voice in my head reminded me of the Elite mantra to always look up! :T:T6 jars on the top shelf:T scanned at £1.59 and dated to 2014. A bit of an effort to get them down but theyre now safely in my kitchen with a couple being handed out tomorrow xx

    For those yet to go hunting for BBQ stuff I can thoroughly recommend the sweet chilli chicken thighs - they are to die for!!

    Oooh I got some of those. :) And the chinese flavour ones too. :D

    Just had a phone call from DD2 some stupid boy has thrown away all the fresh food that she had frozen because it was out of date. :mad::mad::mad:

    She has no time to go shopping as revising for end of year exams. And had stocked up for the next couple of weeks. She has lost chicken breasts, mince, 2 lots of sausages, peas to name a few things. He said the peas had been there ages but she doesn't use many at a time so a bag usually lasts her ages. The mince she only bought last week to make a lasagne for her friend's birthday. :(

    She is not sure what he was trying to gain apparently he lives off frozen pizza and chips and could not find room but he threw away much more than the space he needed. On the plus side a box of frozen crispy chicken has turned up that she thought someone else had eaten. Guess he thought that was ok as was already frozen. :mad:

    Think need Dr Karlie88 to prescribe an online shop for a medical student with 1st year exams approaching. ;)

    Gosh you guys can all talk! Struggling to keep up! popped to T's earlier, used my first price flops in ages. Fruit/Berries/apples (packs of apples and 4 x £1 blueberries), ice cream (2 of the Tesco tubs and 2 packs of 3 Cadbury Hazlenut Whirl (they are like Magnums) barcode ends 3001, now reduced to £1. Sundry other stuff. No coffee or bbq packs in my Extra. Got a £37 shop down to £25 with price flops and multibuys. Wasn't a totally targetted shop either - eg I got 4 of the Guinness original on offer at £4 and some other stuff at normal price. Happy with my shop!

    Thanks for making me so welcome guys, have thanked you all ;)

    Cadbury Hazlenut whirl ice creams pack of 3, says they were £2.99, there were loads in my store. Two yellow sels with different dates on, expired one said £2.99 to £1.49 and the newer one said £2.99 to £1 Barcode ends 3001
    If I had a pound for every pound I'd lost, I'd be confused

    I'm addicted... But it's the best addiction around :rotfl::rotfl:

    Well done :) I couldn't last a month without DTD, but I am going to Africa in August, where there's no tesco :eek::eek::eek: 5 weeks without Tesco :eek::eek::eek:

    Where abouts in Africa are you heading?

    That reminds me, I managed to rebook Westie and myselfs flights, the correct ones this time. I still forgot to go through Quidco though.:doh:
