    So, what is the consensus of opinion on the price checker...........is it fixed now?

    I've suggested on the T FB page that they "take the page down or post a traffic light 'status indicator'".

    This was in response to their reply:
    We are currently still investigating it.

    We have passed on all the details to our IT team who are working on a fix
    :cool:

    I was gutted last week to find I'd run out of minced beef and OH wanted Lasagne.
    Told him he'd have to wait until I found some whoopsied....and hey presto, Got several pack 2 days later 75% off in the Co-op!

    Does anyone know what to do with minced pork, other than in a meatloaf or pork and apple burgers??
    I've got a few packs lurking in the freezer and my lot aren't big pork fans. We've had whoopsied pork chops tonight which I did in the slow cooker with loads of onions in a thick gravy. I thought it was lovely (had it with really buttery mash and veg) but was met with groans when I served it up :rotfl::rotfl:

    I'm way behind, it's been a bit of a day. :(

    But we did have pork mince tonight, as a chilli using a tin of the Homepride Chilli sauce (10p last year) and a can of Aduki beans (1p last year too), was very tasty could not tell it was not beef mince to be honest. I popped the Aduki beans in as Homepride are a bit mean with their kidney beans. ;)

    Will be able to join in with couponing now, had to go and buy a printer as Student Finance Online cannot cope with a loss on the system for Self Employment. So everything has to be done by paper and sent off with his Self Assesment Tax Return. :mad:

    We are only talking a couple hundred pounds income from Self Employment too, just a hobby really but last two years OH has tried to make a bit more of it so last year he invested in some bits and with travel etc made a loss as one company he did some work for insisted on going through PAYE, no problem as he got tax rebate. But of course have to answer Yes to income from Self Employment as he did get some but does not like it when I put zero for profit. :mad:

    Hope noone at DDs gym is a MSEer as their Jubilee tombola today resembled a mini Ts, Superdrug and Boots. :rotfl: Still my stash is a bit smaller now, why I ever bought some of the stuff is beyond me. I am definitely a shopaholic. :o

    Hope some others have been lucky to find the poppy coasters, it's the ones with the not so bright red poppies on. Though my store did only had the one set left. Not had chance to look anywhere else. ;)

    They are only small new spuds.

    Did you notice they are on a denby plate? ;)

    Haha FK you can't be saying you eat healthy and then go swallow a plate of spuds like that.

    You're going to need to go on a 20 mile run to burn those calories off ^^

    Death by Carbs :rotfl:

    I really did not think this was a 24 hr thread, but how wrong was I :o

    Hubbie has had a minor accident in his car so on my days off he's using (reluctantly) my car (rover :rotfl:).

    It's so frustrating reading the thread & being "housebound" :(

    Hopefully we will soon get a run a round from the insurance company :)
    Now thanks to Tommix & Queen Bear, now Lady Westy of Woodpecker :)
