  • Also thinking about the fuel.
    wine mine and DH car we always fill it up so normaly cost £75-85 each time.We are both at a quarter of a tank so am def going to due a couple of shops.

    I am thinking of doing the following
    2 x Normal Mayo - £4.50 Mr s £1.94
    2 x Light Mayo - £4.50 Mr s £1.94
    1 x NAS Orange Robinsons £3.50 Mr s £2.00
    1 x NAS Apple & Blackcurrant £3.50 Mr s £2.00
    1 x 1.4l Spring Awakening Lenor £3.37 Mr s £2.00

    Then 3 cheapie offers.
    Should get just under £10.00 JTD back and can use a £1.00 lenor voucher xx

    Does this make sense or have I got it all wrong?xx:)

    I'm ski ski skipping from 109 and by no means an elite but just trying to work out my petrol/£40 voucher shop.

    I've got in my bag
    5 coffee
    2 diff walkers packs
    2 diff mcvities cake bars
    A grapefruit
    A wisps bar
    2 diff greens pudding mix
    =£41.55
    - mocs at £3.15
    -£5 off £40
    _£10 max jtd

    Leaves £23.40 and 50 litres gives saving of £25
    Plus points?

    Right or wrong?

    And I'll do robinsons tomorrow.
    Any good shopping lists for the robinsons to get over £40?
    And lower than £25 after mocs and £5 till spit?

    Hi all,
    Just a quick question,
    Made a rookie error in Mr T's by buying 7 different items only, however I did get 2 x pork, do you think this will count as 8 items, as both pork's have different barcode/price?

    Thanks for your help.

    Also confirming OJ is working, got £6 back today.

    They will count as 1 :(

    Barcodes are probably different because they incorporate the price in them

    Have a look at the last 4 numbers. Now disregard the last number. Are the 3 remaining numbers the price you paid?

    I pay attention to these numbers when meat is on a reduced £/kg offrer as it tells me exactly how it will scsn at the till

    Methinks i womble too much!

    The missus just text me to say she watched our daughter walk uo to her handbag/shopping bags on the floor, rummage about until she fished out a receipt, walk to the hall table, take a pen out the drawer and scribble on the back of the receipt

    Not bad for 15 months!! :rotfl:
