Hi came by here after remembering a very nice couple in their 50's suggesting it, at t's dudl@y back when 5x10p/litre was on last year and we were discussing best cereal to get and size of our cars fuel tanks.
I did try to register before but someone else had taken my nickname of tonythetiger lol.
I have been out today and done the 10 x mullers and think I've found a multi buy not recognized or spotted on here. (a v m) :j
2 x Quaker Oat So Simple Big Bowl Golden Syrup (8 per ...£4.56£4.00 1these were 33% bigger satchets than regular qoss but on 2 for £3.
The regular size are also on 2 for £3 with a full range of flavours, but this would need trying to see if its recognized.

:hello: welcome, always great to see new posters

Afternoon all.....
:beer:
What a nightmare month I have had....
Went to Leicester to visit eldest sis just before chrimbo, busy chrimbo day and boxing day at another sis's place with family, followed by a day out walking and taking pics...... All was OK till the next day when I came down extremely ill. I believe it was the noro virus, but due to other medical conditions I have it felt almost unbearable and it took me completely out of action for about 2 weeks. Even when I thought I had recovered from it I still felt far from right and doing anything made me feel exhausted. After numerous docs appointments they found an infection and I was dosed up with anti-biotics, which also knocked me for 6. Finished them a few days ago and now feeling lots better. Lets hope I stay that was for a bit now.

Last time I was here posting I was looking at how close I was getting to my 3rd medal...... so hopefully it WILL be today.

I just missed the express Dish washer tabs glitch, it was just finishing when I started re-lurking... but never mind, I usually only get them on glitches for others as I don't have dish washer! :rotfl: I got a load of loo roll for self and family yesterday, Some andrex, some spring, then came home to find T's vouchers in post with 50p off Andrex 4 loo rolls :cool: Popped back today and my luck was in..... ONE last packet.

Today Sada shop hasn't been perfect, (details of mis-hapsto follow), but I can say that myself, my folks and my sis have all been Muller'ed!!!!

I hope life is treating everyone else well, I know sad news is often shared here so thinking of everyone who isn't having the best of times..... But if i've missed any babbies arrive, congrats to any new parents, and I see Bubbs is busy getting ready to move back home. Fab news :D:D

Ok, enough babble, time to post my results from today.

Sorry to read you have been poorly - hope you are well on the mend now and congrats on that new medal :T

Evening Hope everyone had a good day I've only just got home. Been out since 8am:eek:
I went to wembley market for the first time in 7 years. It has gone down hill! Used to be good once! Then I went to sada and wombled lots of receipts:) Got £10 odd in total:T nothing interesting on any of them. Mainly 10% back. Couldn't get the muller yogs because they aren't veggie apart from one flavour. No one in our house would eat them apart from me. I suppose I could have got the veggie one with fillers! I got free cravendale milk and activia prune yogs for 50p with mag voucher. SA noticed the moc was for the pear yogs but still let me us it Then I popped to T's and wombled 3 receipts :eek: not good! lastly, I went to westfield for free l'occitane hand cream & a free lipstick from HofF with the marieclaire voucher. Did lots of tube hopping in between. I need to soak my feet now

I was going to order a pizza for OH from dominos, but it says expired on HUKD? I should have got him one yesterday!

I HATE it when diet yogurts aren't veggie! The muller corners are veggie ok though so I just have to limit myself!

Oh flipping heck its not my week:(What with Alfie being poorly, now one of my terrapins has died.I have a pair of tropical miniature ones (But they are huge) and about 7 years old.Yesterday I thought one was asleep and went back a bit later and hed died and the other one was nudging him:(
And my sky+ box has just gone kaput! Sky want £65 to send out an engineer and you can guess what I said;)So tomorrow morning I'm cancelling and will go to Virgin if I have too or even invest in one of those box thingies that you can record on and just have freeview. Might actually be a blessing in disguise because it'll save a fortune and I've persuaded MrLala we don't need skysports as he can go to the pub to see the odd match;)

Spot on Nikki.. I'm pretty sure if you tell 95% of the blokes in the uk that they have to go 'down t' pub' to watch the footie, rather than watch it on Sky Sports they will be more than happy. In the long run, it might save you a few quid too!!;);)
