    Does anyone have a good recipe for onion soup?:)

    As an onion was nearly always on my list as a filler, I do seem to have an awful lot of them!:D:D:D

    Chop them up and freeze them, if you have any room in your freezer that is :rotfl:
    Couldn't think of anything witty to say so just keeping the space until I can :(

    Well back to Mr T today. 2 febreeze ( free with car and magazine coupons), lenor ( free with car and magazine coupons ), and another Till spit for 3 off 20.00 spend so another set of cutlery for 1.99 and will look out for the Andrex aswell.


    Rose, may I please ask what the febreeze thing is please?
  • Dont know if anyone has mentioned this yet , but, now that nothing is glitching or matching , and almost everything comes up as N/A , the actual items that match create a difference that is very small. Therefore say you wombled a reciept for £100 , as nothing matches the 10% rule will apply and they will have to issue a voucher for £10. that means that any wombled reciept will always be worth 10% of the total ... time to raid the bins

  • evening all :)

    I love wombling :D picked up a 96 pointer and 55 pointer :j:j

    plus got a few price promise ones in for £2.46 & £1.58 :beer:

    anyone used a price promise without freezing the till? it happened for me today. took a minute or two to unfreeze (I didn't want to be carted of to CS! but then it was frozen so they couldn't even save the transaction) hope it's not a common problem.

    Phew- managed to print off my APG's from the library's printer after mine had a strop. All their original amounts :D.

    I reckon the addition of the barcode means Asda can now know for sure whether a voucher has been used before (esp. those over £10), as it'll be linked on the system? Remains to be seen whether the till rejects it, but a good thing anyway imo. So they are slowly closing the security loopholes...still better than PP by a long shot!

    It's been a hell of a ride these past few weeks...we've had our ups and downs, but we got through it! Thanks to the wonderful spirit and collective genius of the 11+'ers so many people have benefitted from this. t2037.gif

    Now, where did I put that clubcard.....?

    Misinformer! :D

    You only get 10% of what compares not the whole shop value.
