You know you only have to mention M's to have my scurrying for my details... Hopefully the original poster can answer this one, I don't think it's on offer in M - could be wrong though - I didn't take details of Robinson's prices as all were still too expensive for me. The 1L in A is £1 (which is 10p/100ml), but the 1.75L, using £1.82 at W, is 10.4p/100ml (meaning that 10% cheaper than W, in the right basket, makes it cheaper than buying the £1 on the 1L).

However, M is also £1 on the comparables of the 1L (please don't ask which, I don't know this time!:o), meaning on APG that is 9p/100ml (compared to 9.36p/100ml - yes I did use the Microsoft calculator - via APG vs W), but... I saw Robinsons 1L in Lidl the other day at 87p or 83p (forget which) so it's actually cheaper straight off, in itself, than even after the APG vs M (or on the 1.75L vs W). Buy in Lidl. Unless M turns out to be really cheaper than W's £1.82 on the 1.75L.

The 1.75l is double concentrate , the 1l isn't

Not an Mse day at all for me today

We spent £200 in ikea, got rid of the old sofa, decided which new one we wanted to get on order and then booked flights to Amsterdam next month :j

I think that was a very MSE day, if it hadnt been for your MSE ways you may not have been able to buy a new sofa and book a break in Dam.

no more ketchup dont know how i worked it out wrong but thought i had a years worth but have only used 2 bottles and still have over 10 left i am sure my boys stopped using it ..
have plenty of shampoo and conditioner lots of soup and beans not being greedy but would not mind some cook in sauces or pasta sauce as only a few of these left..

any one remember the this water i found a bottle down the back of a heavy wooden settle it never gets moved but i dropped my purse down the back i am sure that is what started my addiction to this site,:T:T

DS and DD keep taking the ketchup back to their shared uni houses and leaving it in the kitchen for all their housemates to use. They can't half get through the stuff!:)

Then Great nieces called round (age 2 & 3) gave them the 4p sunglasses & the Lala loopsy dolls
Unfortunately they both want everything pink so the Minnie Mouse sunglasses got broken in the scuffle & tears have been shed.
I need to travel to other Ts & see if I can any more sunglasses - pressure

Made Truly Madly s cheese scones - might have copied recipe you posted wrong :o

Evening

Haven't been around much this weekend. I had a real big cleaning urge come on. Or march out mode as my OH calls it. The whole place is sparkly

My OH is my bad books tho. Went into the kitchen earlier to find him washing his garden boots in the kitchen sink:mad::mad:.....that was bad enough until I saw he was using MY personal nail brush to clean the soles of them:eek::eek::mad: he swears it's the first time he's done this.....a likely story I think:cool: Im not impressed at all

hope everyone has had a good weekend despite the carp weather
