My daughter and i went to see this before Christmas, and we thought it was brilliant too.
Glad you're enjoying yourself.
What is Pakora by the way? Thank you.

Pleased to hear you enjoyed the film,

Pakora. Have you ever visited anywhere near Glasgow?

Have you ever tried onion bajhis?

Imagine a bag of similarly fried vegetable fritters but about 12-20 with a spicy tomato/onion dip sold as a a takeaway (not just as a starter).

It's the signiature takeway dish of (at least Western) Scotland) -unlike deep-fired Mars bars which are an urban myth (or close to being one):rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Ask anyone you know from Scotland. I'm dleighted you still have that treat ahead of you.:beer:

Think I may need another set of shelves though. Got my last 4 lenor tonight and another 5 febreze. DD1 said she'll go back for some more tomorrow, and spread a few coupons round the shelves as have a 'few' ariel, stain remover and ambi pur. Hadn't realised how few of them I'd used

Never fear Savvy. No one gets the blame here if things don't work out!

It's the risk you take:) but thank you for caring:)

No, I'm sorry, it's probably not going to work, as I just found out the T BOGOF is 'cheapest item free' (therefore if you buy with MBs, get those free not the more expensive cheese) - see my post no. 2281.

Quoted myself now, how's that? Just be careful on the fillers - even if we can get back 89p - that you don't spend more than that on the fillers just to get a lesser amount on the PP back than the spending on the fillers: unless you need the filler items and they are themselves at rather good prices.

big thanks to both ops for these :beer:. Picked up juice and rtc chicken today. One of the things I find really helpful about this thread is when peeps remind about such stuff. I had completely forgotten about the double-dip multibuys on meat, and there were lots of chicken breasts half-price today, and then with another £2 off for the multi-buy, so worked out as £4 for every three packs. Will probably be reduced further later this evenng if any left, so definitely one to keep an eye on - thank you Patty and Tiny

:):) No worries.

I'm hoping my store has some of the lamb steaks in the offer on RTC soon. Could do with a few of those.

I was really lucky the day I got some my store had reduced them all to £1 a pack so would have worked out £1 for 3 but I ended up with them free as I got some RTC party food too.

It isnt just the bulb is it??

I've thought about that and will be getting a new one tomorrow but it didn't have one in it when I bought it. Who ever checked it out supposedly checked the bulb and the fuse in the plug but still couldn't get it to work, I was told that they wouldn't give me the bulb just incase they got it wrong and I got it working again .
I don't mind paying for a new bulb as they're only £7 but just thought that it may be worth contacting the manufacturer if it still won't work.

OK - I am off to the bed. Need to be in good form tomorrow. If the glitch is on I need to be in the form to do it several times. If the glitch is off my mind has to be strong enough to cope with that knowledge!!! Night, night sleep tight!!

Looking over on HUKD it appears that all the Christmas biscuits are reduced to £1/75p a box (apart from the 3 for £10).

excellent deal but unfortunately not able to take advantage as we are all stocked up on FF and Vinnies until around August at a steady pace ...

Looks like from yours and neosi's posts I went a day earlier to As for biccies. I paid £1.50 a box yesterday.

Might have a nosey early tomorrow but to be honest they were going quick yesterday and they were only just putting up big SELs at around 4pm.

The pakora we get here is chicken covered in a spicy pink/red batter and usually deep fried, my DH introduced me to this culinary delight usually covered in garlic sauce yummy!
