Is the price they quoted for the Nicky toilet roll on Super Scrimpers correct?

Did not see the programme but it is £1.09 for 4 rolls, £1.99 for 9 rolls and £3.99 for 18 rolls. Much better than brands i.e. cushelle and andrex in my opinion.

They had a woman with a paper degree (or whatever her strange qualification was) and she said it was better than Andrex and the office workers also gave it better marks than Andrex. Wonder how many viewers will be going to the Quality Save:p tomorrow to pick some up

Always get my toilet rolls and kitchen roll from Home Bargains. It was actually created by my Grandads friend and was my mothers first job lol. Though owned by his son now so no friendly discounts but he has made it huge and all across the country. Its being going for years in Liverpool and the toilet paper you mention is great value and looks just as good as andrex. Much better than smart price or tesco value anyway.

This is more in the realm of gossip/opinion than a deal, but have any of you joined the Facebook Home Bargains page? They do a weekly £100 in vouchers competition if you press Like on their comment....I joined just over a week ago.

The amount of jealous types on there is really quite astonishing (and I'm no stranger to reading troll threads: well, I am a Hotukdeals member)...thought I'd seen everything. Maybe it's a Facebook thing. :think:

it never fails to amuse me the commenmts on mostv facebook pages when people win competitions.

Today I found some lovely cookie cutters - great quality metal ones made by Eddingtons

They had sets of three in different designs - Russian doll, monkey and duck. They were 29p for each set, looks as though the RRP is about £4

http://www.windsorcakecraft.co.uk/eddingtons_set_of_3_monkey_cookie_cutters.html?category_id=0&search_string=monkey

They also had a Spring set with eight metal cutters including rabbits, duck, flower and umbrella. Looks as though the RRP is about £10 although only 39p in Home bargains. There is a link below but it didn't come with the raffia!

Also bought Union Jack cupcake cases and muffin cases for 19p for 60.

I forgot to say that I also found a garlic chopper - thought it was worth a go for 99p. It is £9.50 on Amazon
http://www.amazon.co.uk/The-Garlic-Chop-Simple-Brilliant/dp/B0014YWI56/ref=sr_1_3?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1366130638&sr=1-3&keywords=garlic+chopper

They also had lots of Crazeerazers by Fashion Angels - you get 4 take apart erasers in a pack for 49p. They were all from series 2 and included make up, music set, food sets etc. They even have a set with a toilet and toilet roll! To be honest they are not brilliant quality but would be fab for party bags or stocking fillers. My girls are playing with theirs now!

... sorry, a few more things!

I found a Union Jack Aerolatte (milk frother) for £1.99 like this one on Amazon. I'm not that keen on the Union Jack but the normal Aerolatte gets lots of rave reviews so I thought it would be great for my girls who have developed a taste for frothy milk! Even better it comes with a sturdy case so won't get damaged in a drawer.

Also in the card section, I found lots of lovely cards by Hotchpotch - 29p each.

Found lots of random things but didn't find the things I wanted! I was looking for the Thirty one flowery wash bags - are they still around or have they all gone?!
