Just a wee picture of the results of Saturday morning's labours



I was quite pleased with my effort, although am ashamed to say I paid full price for the M&M's (got an APG though).

anyone notice the blue sweets are all facing up with the "m" straight. i bet the 3 yr old didnt apprieciate that. i will pass my share of cake over to someone else, i am diabetic.

Could you combine it with the voucher from mymerrywidow's post

Also its cheaper in T's now. Just checked on my supermarket

that's what I was hoping... got 2 MOC's, both for £3. Asda are selling it for £27.57, T was £30 but I see it's now £25.62.
Mr. S sell it for £30.35. Does anyone know if A or S take into account if you use coupons when doing a price match/comparison?

frequent

7 jtd value £17.18

can be used with £5 off £40 spend.

Anyone tried using more than 10 Apg's at the same time ?

As far as I'm aware, cookies are small files created by websites so they can remember you next time you visit. They usually hold things like username, settings and what you've looked at. Say no if you don't mind being treated as a completely new visitor each time.

50p off Rice dream milk on BEforeI shop. £1 at Mr As and £1.50 at Mr Ts. I guess it would bulk up a £40 shop and JTD. Ends up 50p a litre. No bad if you would drink that I know some folk have allergies to normal milk. Not sure whether price will change tomo.

HTH

Thank you so much i live on the stuff now even though I've been told I've got to go back to my normal foods now ( i don't want to) so i can be tested properly for the intolerances, i don't like cows milk anymore i used to drink gallons.

I much prefer rice milk to Soya milk & have the one with added
calcium £1.39 in asda & Tesco the vanilla one was £1 in asda yesterday going to try that later

Back from the hospital just going to catch up & then megapost lurkers pull up a chair :rotfl:

No, just took some planning and lots of patience

Well spotted! I did it that way because his name starts with 'M', and no, he didn't even notice. Gotta admit, I did feel a bit OCD sorting the sweets by colour into little bowls before I started decorating! :rotfl:

Thanks for everyone's kind compliments on the cake - I'm in no way an accomplished cook/baker, but taking tips from here and there (quite a bit from here, actually ), and following recipes has improved my skills to no end and now I can actually experiment and improvise a bit. My biggest dilemma with the cake was how to slice it without ruining it- in the end I just went along the lines of colour.

You should be proud of yourself, it's a lovely cake and a great achievement. I love baking cakes, much rather cupcakes/desserts/cakes than anything else but I'm shocking at biscuits. they never turn out well. I've just ordered a "how to bake cookies" book from the bookclub that has things in our reception area at work. That may help with my skills!
