His savings or your savings?

Well grey area there
The idea was and he didnt know to start with was we would take board and lodge off him but save it up for when he wanted a car.
He decided once he got his apprentiship that he would buy a car so we said ok no need to give us anything it will help pay insurance etc.
18 months on he can now afford a car (well insurance really) oh and his mam is totally soft would never dream of taking anything off him grrrrrr

Savvy are those pies nice?

I have just finished my latest amendment of my last post (the one you quoted), so you can see the final version now!!

As to whether they are nice, sadly I don't know: I bought one, as a tinned pie, hoping it to last some time and not have to buy another one ever (esp. after M's pricing effectively rose) but one of my family, whilst I was out for the day, picked that day to go in the cupboard and take it. Annoyed me a bit - as I got back home and was going to have it that night. And couldn't replace it as all competitors' prices now in the £1.50 each mark (or higher).

That's why I'm quite happy with M now being £1 - although this is, I'm afraid, another offer (via A) not open to you as M's aren't compared in NI. I think I will get two or three this time (90p net after APG each) so they don't disappear from the cupboard. They are long-date stuff, although some people (myself usually) don't like other than fresh (which includes still fresh on its date whoopsies). However, it must be alright as they wouldn't sell it if it wasn't okay. It's good for some people to buy - and, like Fray Bentos pies, for example, must sell quite a few still.

When did he go ?

I went to smaller holiday camps as a child but never been to Butlins. I went to Butlins in the summer when Jedward were performing it was better than I expected I stayed in basic in Minehead & more expensive in Bognor as I love luxury hotels I'm hard to please it was okay I did take my own sheets & duvet so it felt like my room

Squiggs so sorry about your lovely dog

He went Bognor about 10 years ago, he was 15 and says everything closed really early so he was bored I'd really like to try somewhere as I've never done it before and I'm sure our DD would love it. The Pontins my friend goes to is apparently right next to a beach... am gonna check out their website now...

Sorry, forgot, equiv of A Ibuprofen (16) - CAPLETS ONLY not the tablets - are 28p in M; and A Paracetamol Tablets (not capsules!) - Avs M's 15p. I've updated my list (for those who wait at least a few seconds...!!!):rotfl::rotfl:

(Not shouting, just emphasis. I do the same also, in my own personal lists, for stupid people like me who sometimes have a moment and it never sinks in but we pick the wrong one up in a rush of a mistake. Hopefully those screaming capitals will stop me next time!!! And any messages of "BUY X NUMBER" underlined twice over. I might actually put the right quantity into my basket next time...)
