    OK, decided to throw myself on your tender mercies!!

    The plant below is the one that has come up from the "tomato" seeds.

    The picture below is some of the seeds I have left from the same packet.

    Anyone know what it is, I just do not seem to have my gardening head on today!!

    Any help would be appreciated, I can then send the pictures to the producer asking why they put xxx seeds in tomato seed packets!

    Ta. I was itching to input that one! Receipt was for 160 quid and already had 9.39 of multibuy savings on it. Just had a good feeling about it.

    Its interesting though because big receipts from Tesco rarely yield anything as large amounts of items usually means good items and bad items just cancel each other out leaving the value of the shops similar.

    With asda however even if that happens, their 10% policy means you'd still get a voucher.

    I love asda receipts that look like strips of wallpaper! :D:D:D

    :hello:Afternoon

    Hope the carbooters are successful today. I really need to start doing them again, the whole season went by last year without me doing one! :eek::o Must get back into the swing of it but it's so disheartening when you come home with so much stuff and so little money for your efforts :( Gave it a miss today as the sun will only cause me a migraine.

    Hope Toni is enjoying her first day as a married lady and Leenie is breathing a big sigh of relief :D

    Does anyone else think its peculiar that in the olden days how stressful it was using MOCS, wether or not they would scan or be accepted, wether they would take more than one of any one variety etc, forever trying to collect as many different MOCs as possible. Also some stores had 10% or 25% limits even before MOC usage was stopped altogether.

    Now we use price flop MOCs, JTD vouchers and conditional spends all together, usually with very little fuss and get the final totals down far below anything we would have dared to before black Friday :)
    I remember Black Friday :eek:Everyone was in shock when Tesco's finally caved in and decided you actually had to have bought the product to be able to use a MOC. I was getting my beer and grub free for approximately 18 months :D
    Still, we all knew that T's would stuff up again and they certainly did that with their brilliant new campaign.......DTD:rotfl::rotfl:

    Hi everyone. Just got back from holiday. Sorry not to have posted for the last few days but had a busy time when Mum arrived (yes she did apologise profusely for the bad start to her holiday, for those that are aware of my rant :mad: post on the day she arrived)
    I have more photos to post but that will be later. First priority is a trip to T's. :D The stash has been depleted by DS's, There is no bread, and I'm too tired/lazy to make some! (and my feet hurt cos they've swelled up on the flight. I diligently hydrated myself, and not with alcohol, but sitting in a window seat meant asking the other two peeps, including DH to move when I needed the loo. Lady on the aisle seat def not happy the one time I asked her to let me out, so didn't like to ask again :()
    I have been sent lots of vouchers, £4 off £30, £7 off £50, and £9 off £60. I tried to print off the flop vouchers, but it isn't available on the link off the voucher thread. I would really like to use some of the flop coupons (hint, hint ;))
    I've skimmed and thanked each night since my last post, but not since the day before yesterday. Is there anything bargainous that I need to look out for, any possible DTD's, stuff to buy for JTD etc. My addiction needs to be fed :D:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: All info will be gratefully received.
    I will do a full catchup later tonight, once the washing and cleaning has been done.
    Luv 'n' hugs to all in need, see you later.
