    For those of you who have ran out of wrapping paper, I can recommend this smart price one. Priced at 15p for 2m but goes through till at 14p for some odd reason. Not thin but a decent quality.


    That's 7 rolls 14 m for under £1:):xmastree:

    T have some very similar for 14p, but on a 3 for 2.

    The bad news - biscuits are not a goer this morning :mad:

    3 x Fox's Vinnie's Biscuit Barrel Tin (858g)£10.00£9.00

    I did some transactions early this morning too since I was passing Asda anyway. That's not looking good then... can post Fox's Vinnie's result in the next 15 minutes if any different and Muller result at 1.15pm.

    I just realised that this is the first Christmas that I don't feel stressed about presents or food! I've been sorted for the day for about 2 weeks and I'm sorted for Boxing Day as well. WOW! Thanks guys and gals for your help this year that has made this possible :D x
    :D Coupons = the only money we can legally print for ourselves:D

    :j A coupon for a free item that is price glitched in Mr T's to be cheaper than Sada for an apg = HEAVEN :j

    :money: total = £47.48 cc = 413 selling stuff = £23.00 Floor pennies = £5.79
  • Morning :)

    Looks like we're all sitting with miserable weather then.

    Bubbs - really hope you don't get hit too badly this time :(

    Right off to catch up before deciding whether to go shopping or not. Not sure I can face chaos today.

    Omg I have to confess, I am a shoplifter, oh the shame :( When the baby Annabell dolls were £3.xx I got one for a friends daughters birthday, I also bought several other items, I saw they had blue-tac reduced to 46p I had a coupon for 25 points when I bought blue-tac.
    Got to the till gave the cashier my blue-tac coupon, to be informed I'd not bought any, I guessed it had fallen out of the trolley, just got the doll out of the bag and the blue-tac is there tucked inside with the dolly :eek:
