    Evening All :)

    Had a great shop at Mt T's tonight. Got 3 Fairy Platinum for £10 and used 3 x £3 mocs from SSM trial. Free Reloaded. Plus a few whoopsies.
    Had just paid when the SA who does the reductions wheeled her trolley over to me at the till and asked if I would like any of the latest reductions - lots of veg at 10p each. How good is that?:)
    Off to bedsie byes now- night all :)

    I usually have scissors with me so have even cut coupons out in the supermarket before:o

    I have to admit I have clipped coupons in the loos at Toscos occasionally :o

    wish the SA's would wheel the trolley with whoopises over to me in sainsbobs! I was pushed out of the way today by some woman who wanted to get to the whoopsie trolley, I wasn't even going there! I was getting Apple pie full price for DS!

    i was reading the 11+ thread and saw them mentioning a nutragrain coupon so i googled then realised that it was the cash point print out one that isn't everywhere atm anyway i clicked on the USA site for kellogs and they have a page full of coupons for their cereal same happens for some nestle products. i wrote to nestle a few months ago now and asked why coupons where available to USA but no UK to print, don't think they actually read my email properly as they said if they where sending coupons out to people they would have to increase the prices of products, i was thinking well i didn't ask you to send me any just why weren't they available to print, long story short i left it at that and didn't reply TBH but it seems the USA and yes i know its bigger, has a better customer value to many company's than the UK market which dissapoints me, like last years advent with the cheese competition if you didn't win you received a voucher for Orkney cheddar i think it was, well i actually won a bottle of whiskey on that but as i don't live in Scotland i didn't get it due the terms of the competition fair enough, but my argument is this if we are good enough to sell to outside of Scotland then why do we not qualify for the prizes in competitions, its early i know sorry for the rant but some things just niggle me.

    Morning all

    Hope everyone's well this morning

    Very foggy here this morning so not going to venturing too far think will leave the Kleenex run til Monday so don't have to take kids . Yesterday my little boy spent the whole minute or so it took me to use ss saying "more socks mum, why more socks mum, we got loads of 4p socks" lol bless him subtle he isn't

    Seems to be a lot of moc abuse going on with this new Kleenex till spit but think I will stick to using it for correct product as just don't like being trouted so don't want to give em any more reason.
