I hope our local food banks and homeless shelters like mushy peas and custard...

Thanks - useful Rather ironic though that the first two I checked in terms of things I already buy (kidney beans and spaghetti), T is actually cheaper than A

Single garlic bulb 30p at both A and T

Actually, a list of regularly purchased items that DON'T compare would also be useful, as although you have to buy 8 items, only one needs to be comparable. Suddenly all those N/As on wombled receipts will be very interesting

Some one said it says keep refrigerated no mention of freezing? I've not bought any so only going by what others have said I too have frozen ham but only if it says its ok to freeze on the packet.

I freeze ham with no problems, whether it's from the deli counter or pre packed, or cooked by me. Just make sure it isnt partially defrosted then re frozen and it will be fine!

I must admit to not trying a lot of the items I posted (due to the fact I buy very little tinned/processed food) but I cant see how much different the 17p bottled water will be to dearer water, also the baby products are perfectly fine I have bought those before to make up my shop to £20 so I can use a coupon, I'm sure others can give you more help

morning all hope eferyone is well, hugs to those who need them,
going out later so will try a new jtd shop.

very nervous as my 2 girls get there uni results today posted on the uni wall they were told next month so very suprised to get email yesterday.. my dd2 thinks she has failed as she struggled with some of the work and has been very upset, she is also going to quit her job as they treat her like rubish and she works really hard but only gets £5 an hour but does same job as everyone else on £7.50 and they will not give her a pay rise.. She will miss the residents and is very sad as been there since 15 but has a second job in a shop that she earns far more in and they have offered her more shifts
