Clumsy me producing 4 alpen vouchers for 2 packs

"You can only use 2 mate"

Lol :rotfl: Grabs another 12 mags :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

£24.57 shop paid £11.19 :cool:

Should produce an apg for the sally.

Might have ruggered it up, 4 bud is cheaper in A.

Little bit of supermarket craftyness thrown at them

Tresemme deep cleanse 900 ml is £4.65 in A

The 500 ml is £2 so thats 65p more for 100 ml less if you buy 2 smaller bottles @ £4 which compare to T @ £1.74 or £3.48 per litre = @ least 52p apg Any vouchers about ? :T

Not so much raiding as "laundering" a few things off my home turf and popping into Hartlepool Boots for sunscreen as someone had emptied Teesside Park:mad:

Also did a bit of "laundering" at N+wton A;)

Anyway I thought that your freezers were full..mine are.. so I only top them up from time to time now. One of our 3 fridges is getting a bit low though and needs topping up with whoopsied fruit ...is your sada any good for whoopsies?

Freezers still fullish working my way down before I go on the hunt
Our asda seems to knock about 20% off you would still think they where giving it away mind sometimes they seem to have plenty of fruit with stickers on saw one woman with loads and I do mean loads of bananas

That's what I don't get at all. Try asking for a refund (on a gift card) with no receipt at Tosco and you will probably get thumped by the dragon at CS, put in a trolley and then pushed into the car park where you will get picked to pieces by velociraptors and triceratops! The CS at my store are evil.


I took some Vaseline Retro tubs back recently which I got with an APG thinking she will kick me out and tell me "no can do". She didn't even take the receipt out of the bag. She just gave me a full cash refund there and then. She actually gave me £12 but I told her it was on offer at 2 for £8 and gave her £4 back.

If Sada give refunds, in cash or on a gift card with no receipt, then it's very dodgy. You could buy stuff cheaper at Mr Shoes, or Tosco or Sainsbob, then take it back to Sada for a refund and no one would know. Not that I am suggesting for one moment that anyone would do this mind.

PS. Sada frozen haddock fillets were on reduced to clear at my local from £3.25 to £1.50. Bargain if you use these. Not as good as fresh fish, but perfect for fish pies and Mimi's spicy fish cakes.

It was their own label product. I doubt they would offer a giftcard without receipt on products that could have been purchased anywhere

My Vaseline was not Sada branded, so was very surprised.

Will catch up later, hope everyone is doing ok. Just wanted to say my local sainsbobs has just re-stocked the Christmas bits. Two cages bought from out the back, some of which I haven't seen reduced the past few days. Bought some lovely Hurricane Vases, they had them in gold, red and silver, 21cm high and very good value at £2 each. I also bought some large pillar candles (150 hrs burning time) in matching colours, these were £1.50 each and look great inside th hurricane vases. Might be worth popping back to your local store as they may have also put more stock out

I posted before about the Bob Martin no rinse shampoo (Lavender flavour) reduced from £4.50 to 50p (on clearance shelf) 150ml BC ends 105243, today I got the Flea Shampoo, also 50p BC ends 901104.
