The wonderful sparkly Elite Christmas thread of love, dreams and glitches ©

Got trouted the other day with a £9ish APG on a £12 or so spend so whilst getting some Nivea today thought I best bump up my spend a little - decided on wine as it will always get drunk! Thought I'd try an albali (as the multi buy might not be seen and I know it compares to toscos) and 2 Pinot Grigio for me and it worked!!!!!
In the 3 for ten do paid £3.33 but it compared A £5.98 to T £4.49!
I know you were getting this a lot cheaper earlier in the year, but £1.80 for a bottle of red the DH likes - happy days!!!!!

Even cheaper is to just not shave. Works for me. Saves a fortune in blades and posh foam. :cool:

I bet it saves a fortune on not having a Mrs too!!;):rotfl:

I am assuming that Nivea has spent many tens of thousands researching their shower gel. I'm assuming the fragrance supposedly attracts females. I will be willing to take the risk that they have got this wrong. On the other hand if I find that using this stuff makes me more attractive to other wimmin I shall let you know:D

Anyhow, most females would prefer to smell of this gear to the smell of soft and gentle deo:D

if you mean the ones you spray any deo like that is baned in my house the smell lingers for days so my o/h puts deo o in car on way to work or outside the house lol:rotfl::rotfl: i use roll on

I've just seen this picture on A's website




Gave me a little giggle so thought I would share.

I think the caption could read:

"Sir, can I ask why you are parked in the trolley bay?"


"Sorry, can't stop...Sally is glitching, the BOGOFs aren't showing and if I'm quick I can rinse and repeat three times before closing time"

they waiver the parking fine as they though it was so funny :eek:

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.

Lovely thank you so much.

Hi David.

I meant to say earlier, thank you so much for your 13:07 post this afternoon, which, in effect, was the go ahead for all this fun and moneysaving to commence today. I appreciate that it was the OP and Irish Patty that started the whole thing, but you and others like you were prepared to go to As at opening time and take the hit if necessary just to report back to the rest of us. Great team effort!!

I'm sure I have seen Patty post on a couple of occasions that we have had glitchy weekends recently? Perhaps we could arrange for a variation of small, inexpensive multibuys to be tested each Saturday and Sunday at opening time to see if there is anything interesting going on? We have saved so much recently that I'm sure most of us won't miss a few quid if we get it wrong.

Can you imagine the fun we might have if future weekend glitches are discovered at 10am on Saturday mornings as opposed to 10pm or even on Sundays??

Happy to be part of this, however, also happy to be a lemming and wait for news from the real ELITE..:D:D

What do you think?

Just wondered if you were looking at anything such as Coke multibuys or stuff reported on here as glitching. My curiosity has been answered, the way I thought it would be.

I think that would be a great idea, asap on a Sat morning and test something that perhaps as glitched before and not too much of a loss if it doesn't work.

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

I too take my kids to womble, they thinks its fab!! aloth im forever telling them to be more disgreet!!

went to wakefield sada today and found..... zero wombles and i walked and walked and nothing, bloody trolly pushers
