  • Our Preston store had this as well.

    I also managed to get the raspberry pavlova hand cream from for 79p. I took two & left two ;) I have to admit it does smell a bit sickly though :o
    Now thanks to Tommix & Queen Bear, now Lady Westy of Woodpecker :)

    My local Home Bargains is 11 miles away. Is it still worth a look?

    HomeBargains have Quantum powerball lemon packs (20 plus 20 free) at £3.49. * Crossgates leeds.

    So this works out cheaper than tesco 3 for £10 on quantum (gives you 60 for£10) - get a 120 for £10.50.
    * If youhave MOCs you could get a further pound off each (or as many as it lets youprint should get at least 2). So 7.50 to £8.50 for 120. I’d already used MOCS so didn’t use today – Iam presuming HB take mocs.

    Edit - someone on another thread has said HB don't do MOCs (see below) - I've not tried before - used my finish mocs in Mr Ts last night. So don't count on the mocs - can anyone who works at HB say if this is nationwide or just the store the poster tried yesterday?
    "I tried this in Cwmbr*n (I've got 2 x £1.50 mocs to use) - told that HB don't take ANY mocs :mad:"

    For sure! It's always worth a look. I picked up some 'Real' crisps (a very good brand) Ox flavour, 19p for a 50g bag. Delicious. A while ago they had the Jalapeno flavour ones for same price. A bargain foir proper crisps in a proper sized portion.

    Half the joy of home bargains is wondering what you'll find.

    No wonder it's 29p because I found it to be the most disgusting squash i have ever tasted!! I got some when it was bogof in £land and got all flavours as they sounded nice! As someone who only drinks squash (and I do not usually mind which brand or flavour) I was very disapointed and wondered if it was the sweeteners in it which made it not nice and gave it an aftertaste? I prefer supermarket value over this :)
    No buying toiletries challenge - possibly for most of 2011,2012,2013,2014,2015!
    £1 in sealed pot for each UU (2011 135/500:D) 2012 have UU 130/400 (never realised I had a mini chemist under my bed!!!) :rotfl:2013 UU 156/350. 2014 UU 197/250 2015 UU 16/100
