Hi, for the dental glitch, do all listerines compare? Am I right in thinking it would work if I bought 2 and a £1 toothbrush. Is that the best way?
Also is waitrose like mr t where it required a specific product to force it to compare with it? Thanks all.0 -

Thanks but whoever figured out the 3 for 2 glitch has to do the next one (and a few after!)
I still have no idea who to thank though. All the cloak and dagger over the poo glitch got in the way (posts being edited/deleted/removed)
Does anyone know who we all have to thank?
Not entirely sure, but my best guess is Tiny and Caz?0 -

throwing some hugs around - thats all I have to offer at the moment (((())))
(my 2 kids are currently running around DS bedroom with a hoover trying to catch a MASSIVE spider ......I am too scared to go upstairs!!!
:eek::eek::eek:
I'm with you on that one, don't like big spiders. Nearly went to bed with one once, luckily for some reason I looked under my pillow that night before I went to bed. To this day I still don't know what made me look. :rotfl:
And another time Mr TS came home to find a pint glass on the bed surrounded by books from the book shelf in the lounge. Laughed his head off as the spider had escaped I had been too scared to go back and keep an eye on it. I thought it was secure under the glass but I guess the duvet had a bit of give in it. :eek:
Good luck catching yours

Thanks to Savannah67 for helping me to achieve that last shop. PS I've just been back and done 2 more shops...I got called out to work and thought be rude to not call in!! How did your cleaning shop go? I didn't get lucky on any wombling tonight but pleased with my shop. Do you reckon I'll be ok using such a large APG voucher, hehe!Ahhhh.... lemony fresh victory is mineee!!!0

Joint effort :TBest price and celebrate.Thanks but whoever figured out the 3 for 2 glitch has to do the next one (and a few after!)

Does anyone know who we all have to thank?I made a mistake once, believeing people on the internet were my virtual friends. It won't be a mistake that I make again!0 -

It was Best Price and Celebrate who posted their wombles, I guessed at first it was doubling the cheapest item and suggested we needed Caz to do the sums.
Next morning a couple more wombles think one was from Gardenia and one from Floflo which threw a bit more light on the glitch and I said my theory was it was doubling the cheapest item and then along came Caz with the maths for my theory. HTHs
