Morning everyone:)

It's dry!!! and sunny!!! well for now anyways. Hope it's the same for everyone else.

Was hoping to be picking up my As George order this weekend but no email yet to say its arrived. I ordered on Thursday. Did anyone else order?

For now though I'm going to get my Wellies on and harvest some veggies for tonight's tea.

Have a good Sunday everyone:)

Morning one and all.
Not too sure what the weathers going to be doing here today but have hung out a washing anyway.

Heading to B&Q for the last of the free Kids Can Do It classes. They're making hedgehog houses this weekend. The classes will be back to £5 per child as of next weekend so not sure if we'll bother any more - just wait til the next hols and see what happens.

Will have a wee visit to Burger King - using the survey voucher codes of course and will then pop into Mr A and have a wee hunt for shaded 9 rolls, kitchen roll and cheap lego sets.
Then over to Mr S on the look out for a wys voucher to get a bottle of Vodka and also looking for cheap Zhu zhu battle hamster.- was told that they have the 4 pack in store for £10 so a second wys voucher would do nicely for them too along with some clothes that possibly wont suit. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

So here's hoping for a productive day today.

Have left out some lovely pork loins for tea tonight and will stick some choccies in the car for the kids.

Got to love this site - thanks to everyone. xx

My missus came with me to witness my couponing in S for the very first time today

When we went round the store she would say "can we have this?", "What about that?" rather than just chuck stuff into the trolley. She is starting to learn :rotfl:

She couldn't understand why I was splitting my shopping into three different transactions though but she didn't act as embarrassed as I thought she might. Her eyes lit up at the final totals of each shop and she nearly fell over each time I had a BM handed back to me :rotfl:

We came out having had some points put on and we used some conditional spends, bonus points, BMs, loreal, beanz and she said to me "I'm totally lost. How much did we actually pay just then?" :rotfl:

Isnt it fab

But your missus needs to know the golden rule, only items on the list and no putting anything else into the trolley. Well unless its reduced that is and then it goes in a seperate shop. And also if has to go and sit in the car if she asks for anything not on the list :rotfl:

I am still training my OH and its a logn and slow job ...

Good morning all, if it's ok can I join in your gang :-)

I've been reading through, getting totally lost at times but think I've got the gist of it now. Trouble is I've only got a very small t & a where I live but will try my best.

Any help would be much appreciated. :-D

Have you read the first page. You will find a lot of useful information there.
