    Maybe too late a reply for you, but both OJ and Muller corners worked for me earlier this evening. Remember to put them through as 2 separate shops though!

    Thank you kindly.

    I got 6 OJs on one shop and 10 Mullers on the other (as well as a load of Smart Price stuff).

    Had a look in their half price sale but didn't fancy any cloths. I did, however, get some LED lanterns for £3 each from £8 for camping. They are very bright (used it to bring the shopping in from the car!) :rotfl:

    Managed to get 13 packs of beer at Mr S. SA was OK but she asked me not to come to her again in case she got told off :eek::T

    A mahooosive TY to 99p for posting me some beer vouchers. Really appreciated. If anyone wants to post me some more in exchange for Lenor vouchers, please feel free to PM me :D

    Mr T was equally nice. Got some pork loin steaks, coffee and the Robbinson's. Also got 3 of the £5 Pilgrim's choice for a £9 voucher back.

    Think I have an idea for the Mr T one. 5 x Coffee = £35. Get £5 worth of shopping comparable to Mr A exactly or dearer. Coffee is £5 at Mr A. Use a £5 WYW £40, and a JTD for £10 = 5 jars of coffee plus £5 free shopping for 50p off per litre. Average tank at 50 litres = £25 saved = FREE coffee and shopping. If anyone sees a flaw, please let me know. :money:

  • Ello aussie! (for some reason when I look at your username aussie springs to mind).

    Thanks for asking after my issyc ...... just feeling anti social at the moment. Nothing you guys have done.

    I hope everyone I sent scraps of paper to have now got em ok (I didnt keep a record) but if I've forgotten anyone, PM me a reminder.

    cheers.

    Evening, does anyone know of somewhere in London that is not too expensive to stay for 3 nights. DS has been offered a week work experience and so we are looking as to whether he can take up the offer, depending on what costs are involved. thanks

    If it's out of term time the universities offer relativley cheap accom or youth hostels may be worth considering. Just don't do what I did which was book the cheapest tourist hotel and end up miserable and itching with bed bug bites. It was so grim makes me shudder even now :(

    Evening all, I haven't managed to find any bargains in the supermarkets for 2 days but did manage to get a bargain off their notice boards.
    Someone was selling a 3 piece brown Italian leather suite (sofa & 2 chairs) for £150, I have wanted a leather suite for a long while but there was no way we could ever afford 1 and even second hand round here there about £800 for a full suite.
    It is absolutely gorgeous & so comfy, all I've got to do now is stop the dog jumping on it.

    Good louck. Our new dog (the OH fell soft) decided to eat the blue leather 3-seater sofa we had. There was sofa stuffing everywhere. HE is a chewer. Luckily we had a 2-seater and a chair but alas it's not as comfy with 5 kids!

    Bloody dogs! He lost his balls for that!

    That brings on another story. OH came down to see sofa torn, put him in yard and took kids to school. Left him in yard whilst she went to pets world to get him some chew toys. Came back and let him in. Next day environmental health letter warning us about dog being left outside "all day" was half an hour!

    Long story short they gave us a £100 voucher to get his bits done! Woop woop ty next door grumpy neighbour :T:T:rotfl::rotfl:
