The 11+ thread; where all are welcome, but be prepared for some serious money saving!

Well, I'm just catching up through last night's and this morning's posts...and all I can say is.

It's obviously not a good morning for some, so I'm not going to say it.

celebrate, FloFlo and Tinyshoes - my thoughts are with you all. Life is full of highs and lows and I guess you're all going through the 'lows'. Just remember that there's always light at the end of the tunnel. Get support from any family members or friends.

I always think how lucky most us are when I go through a bad patch in my life. Most of us can safely say that we have a roof over our heads, heat and warmth when needed, food on the plate when we're hungry, money in our purses/wallets, family and friends for support, clean running water when needed, a great healthcare service for when we need it etc. There are billions of people out there who haven't got any of this; which makes me feel so fortunate.

I know that everyone won't deal with difficult moments in their lives like I do and that's fine; just giving some words on how I'd manage with it.

Finally, I'd like to say how amazing this thread is. The replies from some people really do bring a tear to my eye and it's great to see how some of us can open up on a forum.

I think the past few pages demonstrate what a brilliant online community we have here.

Hugs to celebrate, FloFlo, Tinyshoes, Mr and Mrs3Dogs and to anyone else who needs them; you're all amazing.

Back from shopping, didn't buy the star for a dognut, will buy tmz for breakfast roll. Asda nothing really exciting, didn't spend much as going Morries on Thursday, did get some whoopsies chops only reduced by £1 odd but we having them for tea anyhow. Lady on till comments on how good my apg's are, I said if u careful what you buy you can get such amounts, however I did lie cos they were wombled receipts, twelve quid off shopping helps. Still got a stack smallies I working through on whoopsied items, I not getting much from Asda in last few days they must altered the price, did get a few from Tesco though. No pulled ham left in mine, must have a fellow mse member on my patch.

X have nice day X

I posed this elsewhere and have just copied and pasted into here for you guys to benefit too x


Old el paso mexican dinner kits of on offer for £2.

Only noticed on the bus home I was charged £3.22!!!!


Going back to get a few more this afternoon and get DTD. Will phone customer services about the one this morning.

The pack I got today was the quesildia (sp)


I should get a dtd of £2.44 so each pack, so should cost me about 80p each. Good bargain if you use them a lot.

Enchiladas also available but will check the price later x

The quesildia is not on offer , should be £3.22

celebrate: I'm proud of you. Whatever comes and whatever happens, you made the right decision there and then. Hope life smiles on you a bit more from now on.

tinyshoes: Sorry to hear about your mum, but it's good that you got her into A&E when you did. A good course of antibiotics and hopefully she'll be back to her old self.

FloFlo: Sorry for your loss.

3Dogs: I'm glad Alan was able to sleep better with oromorph. It's a really strong painkiller, likely to make him a bit drowsy, but correct pain management is so needed in his case. A few goodnight's sleep will do wonders for him.


To everyone else: Forgot to mention that my local T's has some of the aprty stuff reduced to 20-50p. Party poppers 41p, blue disposable cups 24p (I think) blue disposable dishes also around 24p. Considering the normal price for them, it's worth stocking up if you're thinking of having a party at some point this year.

Of course, who knows if left long enough they'll go down to 1p... Don't think it'll happen in my locals, everything flies off the shelf when it's like this!

Must go and put the washing machine on. Would have been finished if I had got my act in gear before sitting myself down with the laptop.

Guess I sort of hoped Miss Laid might have come round and got on with it for me, bet hers is all in from the washing line and dry already.

As I hung out my solitary load of washing today, and my line was filled, I did wonder, what size garden/paddock/field Miss Laid has, to get 5 loads of washing out there!!!

Just a quick post before I go out and get on with the gardening..DD was home for the weekend and took her coupon shopping at T's. £29.+ down to £3.ish..thanks to everyone on here for advice and "learning's" over the last few weeks.

On a more serious note hugs and thoughts go to all those who need them..some of you are having a rough time at the moment but keep strong and you will get through it eventually

So I'm having problems with L'Oreal like everyone else. Have tried uninstalling and reinstalling but no joy. Could anyone who has managed to print explain what theyve done and I will try that too. Thanks!
