  • Went in today and also got 12 green and blacks butterscot chocolates for £1. The offer was 6 for 50p!

    Picked up some very nice document folders with a floral pattern on them for about 39p
    Also some dividers for about 39p which were neon with both 5 part and 10 part in a pack. Usually pay too much for dividers and folders in other shops so I stocked up!!

    I got a pair of these today for £2.99 I have croc-type ones already for the garden but they have holes in, these will be fab for running out to the bin / bring the washing in / putting the bikes away etc. and camping.

    I got a pack of the plain yesterday - so nice - lovely little mini bars and quite rich so you only need one - good handbag size for work.
    The hazelnut and raisin are delicious. Dates up in a few weeks but they will last a bit longer.
