Has anybody actually tried to buy Sally in Sainsburys?[/QUOTE

Trouble with that is that even if it is the correct price because they are discontinuing the line or something it will have the 10p price tag and an empty shelf as people will buy them quickly!

With them being the £8.98 price at Asda you're probably more likely to get it through a price match, unless Sainsbury's have got loads to get rid of!

Don't worry tweets, nothing about being thick in there. We are all looking for the slightest descrepancy in how things compare and I'd rather try to pick the bones out of 10 'possibles' from tired posters than miss the beauty that was AAU's from a few days ago. Keep looking!!:D:D

I will keep looking and one day will get it right

Some people have no self control

I am now kicking myself for not buying more than one bag - I am convinced that my store has more than one bag with the Thorntons Christmas celebrations in ...

In less than 3 weeks time, all the breaks will be off and we can eat as much of the choc stash as we can.

Right now I fancy crisps and there are none in the house!

Hope everyone has had a good day, just a quick post before I settle down to watch X Factor. Just wanted to say thanks to a few people and I'll catch up with the thread during the breaks

Patty - thanks for letting us know about the M&S 'fivers'. Picked up a few at a ss till. Tried one in Mr T but till wouldn't accept it. May be because I didn't hand sa the voucher first and my balance was less than £35 by the time he had gone through all my MOCs, I'll try again, if not I'll have a look in M&S and see if there's anything I fancy

mhoc - thanks for telling us about the mishaps in Home Bargains. I bought a few bags and they are lush! I ate half a bag on the way home from shopping this afternoon and felt sick. My own fault, my hand wouldn't stop helping itself from the bag

mishaps - I picked up the paper trimmer you recommended. Can't wait to try it out but think I'm going to have to fight DH to use it first, he's got it out of the box already :rotfl:

Jan.t, Snap-ant, Bootsalebargains and I think Locarr and sorry if I've missed anyone else out - thanks to all you guys for the heads up on the 4p underwear. I had DH going through all the Trunks and Vests to find any sub £8. He found 4 bless him. Took them all through ss (no scanner) with some full price cat treats in case the alarms went off (I had visions of police sirens outside the store lol). One went through at 4p, the others went through at full price at £6 each so he paid for them all then went straight to cust serv for a refund on the full price ones - all by himself. He took great pride in telling me that there were no trouts in sight :rotfl:. Don't think these ones have been reported yet - the ones he got were the Jersey Trunks (3 pack of white / grey / black. BC ends 06500. Size small - small???? they're obviously going to have to go as a stocking filler for someone else then

Sorry can't remember who suggested about the sealed pot challenge. I think it's a fab idea and will defo sign up to this. Had a look on our thread for OP but can't find them. Someone also suggested that 99p store has the money tins so I thought I'd get one of them. However, found one for 59p in Home Bargains which is great so well pleased.

tweets so sorry to hear you're down bless you. Hope your heating is now fixed, I need to catch up so only saw your original post. Big Hugs xxx :)

So your half hour theory was blown outta the water

After I left here, shut down comp I had a phone call at 1.05 am from a woman, the phone was my DS4s. It seems that he and his mate were so legless they couldn't stand :eek: I ended up going to the pub to pick them up. I'm so angry with him :mad: I've hardly slept because I kept going to his room to check he was ok :mad:

He got up at 7 am :eek: clear headed but does not know how he got home :eek: me, I got up at 9.30 and am now going to Sada :cool:

Yup, seems to be somewhere between 37 and 44 mins. Still goes to show green light remains on after you shut down your computer though

Can't blame the riots- I can assure you that there are no riots over at westie:D

On a serious note I absolutely love Belfast and the NI sense of humour in general - glad Hopepray can see thru it all....that the majority of folk here are very decent.
