morning all, some one mention the changing loreal offer online. looks like money to be made. could get some when you are getting the pizzas, with some whoopsies.

the wipes are on two for 1 as is the makeup remover so, two coupons means paid two pound to take them away.

or asda is 3 for 6 pound so use coupons there and then get apg.

I will have a go in asda i think, will buy some cheap value toliet stuffs to make it comparable.

can anyone help with a safe asda shop.

i was thinking value lemonade, value rimblocks, toilet cleaner.

if i bought 8 lemonade would that be a comparable shop?

hi Rosie

You need 8 DIFFERENT comparable items, so 8 of the same lemonade wouldn't work. I usually get things like value kidney beans, chooped toms etc. Also, if the Muller yogs are on offer at A, then each different flavour counts as a separate comparable item. Or one banana, one onion, one apple, one carrot

Morning all birdies twittering outside and looks like a dull morming but im in a great mood. Lol had to laugh at kids coupon cutting, my grandkids love doing this and grandaughter emjoys going on my supermarket comparing prices and when shes here she loves putting price checks in, she pretends shes a shopkeeper LOL shes only 8. Popped to asda yesterday and picked up lots of jars of cooking sauce, glad I got them before the rush.

FloFlo hope your mortgage app comes through quicklu for you right off back a few pages to catch up!!!!

Think you must be starting high in the parenting stakes - that's normal Plenty of scope for dropping further :D

Yet to catch up but thought that I'd share a couple of things with you.

Had an away day yesterday to one of Neosi's locals - the horrible one.:rotfl::rotfl: They never fail to please.

Firstly, I saw two well dressed ladies with a trolley similar to mine - blue maggots (end of aisle display sel £2.00 but go through at 6p), bug and tar wipes and car wash (seasonal aisle), grow your own herb pots (24p sel still higher price) and pizzas. They were also using the price checker. One of the ladies had a pink Barbie shopper with her.

Using descriptions from on here (QPR said that she was glam in a Joan Collins way) and the lady had already said that she uses a pink Barbie shopper. I asked them if they were friends of Martin and they said that they were. I introduced myself and said Hi, Nikki and Nanny Lala. One replied that her name was not Nikki and the other said that she was certainly not a Nanny! Turned out, Martin was one of their neighbours! I felt so embarrassed.:o:o:o

Secondly, a few dtds.

The half price chickens- £2kg and (new stock) chickens £4kg were all together with sels still saying half price - £2kg. I picked the ones with the latest use by date . They went through at £4kg.:eek: Cs argued that they were different types of chicken.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:How, I asked, they were both British large birds. She replied that they had a half price sticker on them!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:DTD given.

Look out for the standalone display of the half price Veet Easy roll electrical roll on kit (other Veet products are included in this offer and are stated on the display box). Offer has finished and goes through at full price - £29.99 :eek::eek:. DTD given and top part of display box removed - leaving 'half price' on front and both sides.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Whilst at cs, someone else got some dtds. Union Jack box of sponge cake filled with cream and apples - stickered half price £1.25 went through at £2.50. 70 (?) chilled cocktail sausages, white sel £1.50 went through at £3.00. A box of cherries with sel of £1.99 went through much higher. CS bought the label back and said that it is £1.99kg. Customer said that as they are being sold boxed, it should be a unit price. CS argued that they were only in the box to protect them. :eek::eek: Customer burst out laughing (as did the rest of the queue!) and said that was the biggest load of 'toffee' that she had ever heard!:T:T:T:T DTD given.

In the dtd book were also sels for Haribo Maoams (£1) and Vimto bogof - perhaps worth a look to someone.

Chilled stonebaked pizzas that were 2 for £4.00 a couple of days ago, are now half price at £1.79 - price flops work with them. They also work with the kids 44p ones (giving you £1.06 off of your shopping;)), My DGD1 loves using these as a base to 'make her own' pizza.
HTH.

That's totally acceptable;) it's when you get them to use the SS on their own and put their knee on it so it keeps going "Unexpected item in bagging area" as a diversion tactic because your scanning loads of 1p bits on another SS,you know it's bad:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Me,QPR& Nannylala are quite good at that;)
