As a child, I remember having one of these.



As other people have said, it was great for making tents!
We called it a clothes horse.

I have now got one of these, which was in the house when we moved into it.




And it is brilliant for drying stuff during the dark days of winter.:T

we had the wooden clothes horse too squigs....I had hours of fun with it:D....only child:o

I have a pulley now, it was here when I moved in. as well as drying garlic, onions, chillies etc on it my OH uses it to hang pasta from when he's made it.....there's never any room for clothes on mine :rotfl:

wouldn't think so, but don't know what that means but as my gran had one and no one messed with her I wouldn't even think a bad word in front of her in is not :eek: worthy

It seems Sada Tomato Puree tin (142g) 29p can be used as a filler on A vs T, S or W, but not A vs M as M is 35p on their equivalent.

[Edit: Original post went wrong a bit - it's 29p at A not 39p: now the post makes a little more sense...]

Were you really there ? I would have looked a right numpty asking peeps if they were Artha of course if anything was glitching I could have checked out the trolleys and would be able to tell an mse"r. There was quite a bit of meat (never seen any left in the fridge on top shelf) before but it was still expensive so I was unsure how long it would be before they did the next reduction.

Do you know if they have had the new mags and they have all gone or have they not reached our area yet?

What time were you there? I was there for the final reductions at about 7:30. Hadn't gone specifically for them but couldn't resist

You might have seen quite a lot of meat on the top shelf late on but that is first stage reductions of the next days batch that gets added to the following day but theres sometimes a knack to getting some from there reduced to 90% off;) Won't go into that on here;)

Edit. Do you mean Real Food mags or the others? Not seen a Real Foods mag but the others have been and gone I think

If anyone is buying the coke with the mullers I have just had mine back and they compared at full price at M. I guess it must be because I bought 1 diet coke and 1 normal.
My OH also bought the mullers and coke, his shop 6 minutes before mine, but he got 2 normal cokes and that came back fine. Has anyone had diet coke compare ok? although if it wasn't going to compare I would have expected N/A not the full price showing. Bit scared to check my last receipt now, better to wait until tomorrow because it's wed? or has the offer on the cokes ended?
Rather annoying

Yes, I can see that this is annoying. It may be something to do with BOGOFs not comparing or, more likely from what you are saying, that the system hasn't recognised the multibuy at M when different cokes are bought (e.g. one regular and one diet). I did a special note of all the sizes of Coca Cola I could find in M and the pricing on every one of them tonight so this is something I'll provide more info. in a post later on on here as soon as I can. I haven't noticed any change in pricing or offers on the cokes between Monday and Wednesday - I think receipt entry today might still be based on Monday's prices but entry tomorrow (depending on how late you enter) may be based on today's, in theory shouldn't make too much difference but their scanning compared to Monday may be so haphazard again. Things they picked up on Monday they might not have done today and vice versa. Such is life...

I noticed my Ts are getting wise to potential DTD meat joints the last twice Ive been in. Tonight it was topside joints that have a third off...all the unstickered, wrongly priced ones had yellow labels with the correct price stuck over the original price label....bummer:(

I thought they were whoopsies at first:(
