Apologies that this is nowhere near under 50p BUT... I absolutely love it and it lasts up to a year so under 50p a month which I think is a bargain.

PLUS it is natural and very safe. It is unscented and doesn't mark any clothes either. If you were willing to take a punt on it I don't think you would be disappointed

I think you can get trial sized ones cheaply - worth a look x

What is it please??? :rotfl:;):rotfl:

I haven't tried the sprays - I always use the one that is priced there at £4.60 and I see they do a travel version of the same.

They are available on amaz0n and fleabay and health food shops so shop around for best price.

They do last months and months.

Well I started reading this thread and only up to page 9 but love it. I think I am going to do my best to buy the basics and value version of things and give them a go.

I havent had rice pudding for ages and looked on my diet website and I can have half a can for 8 syns so half of my syns for the day.

Not sure I will be eating Tesco Value Beef burgers as on the list of the ones that was found with horse DNA.

Morissons savers apple and black currant squash I bought for the first time on Monday. It was 28p for a litre bottle and I was pleasantly surprised. it's not thick like Ribena etc but makes a nice warm drink. Bargain..

sponges - perfect for washing up/cleaning my grill pan
dishcloths - can be rewashed 2-3 times b4 they fall apart,
washingup liquid - does as it says on the tin
toilet cleaner - clean fresh scent, leaves my loo sparkly clean
multiuse liquid - fresh lemon scent and cleans my floor perfectly
furniture polish - not heavily perfumed, does the job without making my skin itch
chopped tomatoes - good enuf in chilli or spag bol if whizzed in the blender
teabags - omg!!! cant believe i didnt buy these sooner!
rubber gloves - good enuf for cleaning or washing up
handwash - new formula has a lovely grapefruit like scent to it, very nice
cream cheese - easy to jazz up
tortilla chips - good at xmas as a nibble
pasta - is ok for what it is but try to buy the next own label up if i can
all the above are Sainsburys basics - will add more as i think of them

did a huge online shop the other week..... got a few goodies to add to the above:
kidney beans - perfect in chilli, dnt need much reheating to soften them up
surface cleaning wipes - over the 50p limit but do a good job for what they cost
cooked sliced ham - again over the limit but price per slice makes it work, normally hav this on toast for breakfast in a hurry
diced pork - works out to about 50p per 100g, cooks nicely in a casserole
brown sliced loaf - ok for toast or sandwiches

again all basics - but the majority of my shopping is basics anyway so

Hi everyone - sorry if this has already been posted.

Popped into the local Co-op yesterday and bought 'Soreen' loaf for 50p. Not everyone's cup of tea but it is low fat and stickily yummy!
