Cost £1 in A compare to T at 39p, see my shop above, don't know what they're like though!

I only tried them once and they were a bit gritty. Might have been my bad luck but worth a try:)

there is an Elizabeth Arden perfume on Boots.com which is £62, on offer at half price and 3 for 2 and additional 10% off which seems to come of the original price. No idea how the maths works but comes out at £12.33 for 3, ie £62 down to £4 per bottle. Keeps going in and out of stock, but was in stock just now .....

http://www.boots.com/en/Elizabeth-Arden-5th-Avenue-Eau-De-Parfum-Spray-125ml_9827/

Does anyone know what this is like?

Seems to a few glitchy things at Boots at the moment:)

I bought the 3 for 2 on champneys at the weekend. Used the 500 points voucher which was in the big champneys gift box, plus double coupons plus 150 points coupon split from the previous week plus extra points from the machine to spend that day. For a £15 spend I got £12 back in points:)

Can i just ask what are punched pockets pls

Sorry, just catching up, if it's not already been answered, they are plastic wallets to put A4 paper inside, then usually put inside a binder / folder. HTH

I have two younger brothers

I have spent a lot of time with them both, trying to teach them (some!) of my MSE ways.

One of them just shrugs his shoulders, tells me he cant afford it (?!) and wants me to do everything for him.

The other one, took it all in, didnt do everything I suggested but he did the things he needed to

He just phoned me to tell me that he has just put down a deposit on a brand new car :j He said that all the money I have helped him to save has gone a long way to helping him clear his debt, save for this deposit and make sure that his monthly payments all go out as they should do

I am so proud of him

What a great story:)

Is this the correct picture as going from the 2 shops posted they need to be baby new potatoes, or does it not matter? There are 3 different types according to MSM http://www.mysupermarket.co.uk/#/Shopping/FindProducts.aspx?Query=new potatoes with herbs

Evening all

Dashed out to try the pembrokeshire cheese last night but couldn't find any. Tried Pilgrims choice but no luck. Also had trouble with my usual mullers yeaterday. Tried 2 for £3 colgate and 2 for £7 red wine. Nothing glitched. Wanted to try the albali ( friend particually likes it as strong) but no multi buy. Had remembered fairclare getting a strange wine result and had quite a few apgs so no money harmed in the process.

Art class today and been doing batik which is great fun and a nice change. Sainsbobs on way home and wombled 2 BM s total value 8p but that was 8p more than the wombles last night.

Snow not cleared from the weekend but do not know if we are due anymore. 5 miles inland totally clear.

Am I the only one on here that makes batter from scratch. Mind you, we did have waffles.

Snowing here. Hope it isn't tomorrow because local trains stop running at the slightest dusting.

Yes I'm a scratch sort of girl too:)

DavidF, I think you bought the wrong muller, the one with chocolate sprinkles is not one that works, and the S & G I think is the responsive one that works not all of them work, I may be wrong though.
