                    Hi folks,
We're thinking of heading to a supermarket tomorrow late afternoon to see if there are any meat bargains.
Has anyone got any bargains to report from previous years? Is it worth going?

            In my experience....Mr T usually reduce by 20% then 50% then 75% during the day (normal days, mine is morning,4pm then 7pm)
Tomorrow if it's a largish store (mine is) They will reduce at least 50% first thing and by 4pm 75% same day after boxing day and days before new year and after new years.
Had some brilliant bargains in the past and have saved some of the very little money we have to try and grab some this year xxxI will save my tesco £1 savings stamps this year! .......so far = £50 (full card#1)
Card #2 £6. I will not be skint at Chistmas this year!
Total £560 -
