    Have been to A's and T's, got a couple of long wombles from A's, so hope they are good tomorrow. Also got some chicken and pasta pots for 10p each and some creamy coleslaw for 5p. There were none of the pasta sauces left and the baking stuff is not reduced anywhere near as much as some of you have had, the cookie mix MissL has got was £1 still.

    At T's wombled a couple of £5 spends, was not going to get much but was rude not to:D. Got 30 Carlsberg for £16, 6 pizzas for £1, very few whoopsies today but did get some fruit and veg

    For 22p there was also banoffee mixes (I'm allergic to narna's) and Rolo muffin mixes (Don't like choc)
    Anyone can cuddle but only the Welsh can cwtch :)

    The pantry now looks more like a store cupboard for a nuclear winter :)

    I'd like to nominate the OP as a contender for this next thread as we are now onto post 8000+ :)

    Hello guys, hope the Price Check is back up soon so we all know our fate!!

    Went to my brothers today, he'd just got back from T's. Picked up some Finest food, sausages and other stuff. Totalled 12 pounds and no 20% discount.

    Sorry I can't recall the name but someone yesterday said the deal had stopped and it's been confirmed today.

    Well I got to my local EXTRA - First thing I see when I walk down the chilled section is a massive sign - 20% off Finest Products! CA was stacking shelves and I asked him if the offer was valid today. e said the offer is Valid and runs out at midnight.

    I picked up 4 packs of Finest Burgers (1.50 half price ones) - as suggested by someone (again sorry, name escapes me) went through SS and the discount didn't come off.. :mad::mad::mad:

    Didn't bother with Customer Services, not even for JTD (local) I used two price flops so paid 1 pound per pack. But it makes me wonder.. For everyone of us doing Tesco over on the Pizza Meal Deal, how many dozens of Customers are they doing over on the Finest 20% offer? Makes me wonder. 2.40 was 20% of his 12 pound shop.

    I went to tesco today and did quite well, total was £23.41 then got it down to £7.55 :j

    Although really annoyed because it should of been a few £ less, i got the £4 frozen deal but it didnt come off :mad:

    Im sure i'd got the right items because id wrote down all the weights and prices before going, there were no signs in store for the deal but had read that the promotion still worked, i got;

    birds eye peas - £1.25
    birds eye fish fingers - 12 pack haddock - £2.48
    birds eye waffles - £1.50
    Viennetta £1
    So paid total of £6.23 instead of £4 :mad:

    Did manage to use a £1 off £5 on birdseye on that atleast so £5.23.

    does any know where i went wrong?

    You bought the wrong fish fingers

    evening all, hope your all well, except for the price check fiasco:mad:
    well think you could safely say i've got my mojo back;)

    had a few days off been away and busy renovating a couple of flats i own:A

    thank goodness i didn't have chance to rush to T's this morning for the B&J's deal, i was doing an A's marathon with my sis and mum:D:D

    ..................never again:eek::mad::rotfl:

    We got stacks of pasta sauces, conserve, mango chutneys sauces and mayonnaise and stir fry sauces, shots etc etc, in the last store we struck lucky with whoopsies, tons of fruit and veg 10p, my mum and sis had a trolley full each, milk and bread was 5p, bedding plants 10p:T:T:T FK you think your haul was big i think i need to go back and see my therapist and ask for a refund:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:


    we used several (cough cough) £5 off £40 spends coupons , needless to say i am nominated person for returning those 6 pairs of unsuitable mens shoes tomorrow:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    have had no time for T's, tbh i'm glad, with all the upset they've caused i need to reassess how much precious hard earned money i am prepared to let them have and have recently been doing far too much "normal" shopping in there. Just feel sorry that i wasn't able to go round and hand out all my conditional spend coupons today which was my plan :(

    beki welcome back again, don't worry about getting your mojo back, i can testify to the fact that once the elite is in your veins it is hard to completely lose your mojo, it's in there somewhere and as soon as you get back into the swing of it there'll be no stopping you:)
