Also you get packets of microwaveable rice/pasta.CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera.

You can also make some reheatable deserts such as crumble and custard or rice pudding2013 Free Money - £363.44 Topcashback
