    Not sad at all Sally, it is a very fun hobby, especially if you can get your kids involved to get into those 'hard to reach' areas!!;)

    I am always on the lookout for a good womble. The best I have had so far is £11.48. Even today, very little effort and I got a 78p and a £4.54 back.

    I think all our friends think that the elite are mad, however, if you saw a fiver on the street wouldn't you pick it up and feel pleased with yourself?

    In our case, we are finding real cash every day. Ok, we have to spend it in Asads and it is a lucky dip as to how much we get, but that is what makes it such fun.:D:D

    Indeed. At the risk of sounding very stupid, are there any ways you already know whether a receipt is going to be worthwhile checking or not? Or do you take all you find and check them all? (Unfortunately my Sada's car park today absolutely spotless - even went up to a trolley, parked right at the back of the car park, that looked like it had a lot of paper in it. But didn't turn out to be a receipt.)

    [I didn't mean whether you can see it has less than 8 items. I meant whether you can tell, from looking, whether it's likely to hit more of a 'jackpot' or not.]

    Did the Coke citrus zest compare to morries? Its the only coke my daughter drinks.Thank you.

    Ok I misinformed earlier.

    Coke citrus zest compares ok to morries.

    Reason it did not compare for me is bought 2 Innocents in same shop so forced it to compare to Ts as no offer on Innocents in Morries.

    If this works tomorrow do not mix Coke citrus zest and Innocent in same shop.

    Can I ask how much you actually spent on your Nivea shops? I have some £7 apgs and want to spend as little on top as possible

    Thanks in advance

    One was £8,8x and the other was £8,01 but that includes some woopsies which do not show on comparison.

    my store has the 5 different mens nivea shower gels , so in getting 8 ( but 5 different ones ) is your first 5 items only need 3 more items to make it to the 8. So £6 for the Nivea and you have £1 to play about with fillers.

    And counts as fillers as part of your 8 items.

    Fillers that pay. Now there's a better idea.

    I had a spare 5 mins yesterday before taking my girls to watch Room on the Broom show in London and i asked if i could use my voucher on sale items in a small BS round the corner from the Lyric Theatre and both assistants said yes.
    :T So very happy.
    My 9 year old found me the voucher whilst out Xmas shopping with her Dad, she said she had a hard time keeping it a secret, as she had wrapped it up for me for my Xmas present. Such a proud Mum when i opened that present, as we have been looking together for ages for a £15 card.

    aw hun thats so nice .children can be amazing i got some thrermal socks and slippers and a onsiy from my little girls and they told me i wont be cold naw :T

    1 x Nivea for Men Shower Gel - Silver Protect (250ml)£1.89£1.00

    1 x Walkers Sour Cream & Chive Crisps (6x25g)£1.58 £1.16
    1 x Walkers Ready Salted Crisps (6x25g)£1.58 £1.17

    1 x Innocent Tropical Juice (900ml)£2.18 £1.50
    2 x Innocent Apple & Mango Juice Blend (900ml)£3.00 £3.00

    So it compared but took the multibuy into account at A, how strange.
  • Don't think this has been mentioned but from A v T 11:10am today

    1 x Innocent Fruit Tubes for Kids Strawberries & Raspb...£2.00£1.50
    1 x Innocent Fruit Tubes for Kids Mangoes & Pineapples...£2.00£1.50

    I paid 2 for £3 for these.

    No not in 3s its 2 for £2.50 at Asda, so buy 2 to compare at S at 2 for £2.50 net cost 40p per bottle. Buy 6 to compare at T 3 for £3 there for net cost 34p per bottle.
    To clarify, if you are doing an A v S shop, buy in twos. If you are doing an A v T shop, buy in sixes as that gives the best return and equates to 17p per bottle.

    £11.88 - £6.00 = £5.88. 10% of £6.00 = 60p. APG = £5.88 + 60p = £6.48.

    Pay £7.50, apg for £6.48 means you pay £1.02 for 6 bottles which is 17p per bottle.

    Sorry, I haven't experimented with an S shop so son't know how coke compares with them.:D
