    Thanks to previous replies regarding cat food and the gourmet sample link. The 'rescued' brothers are settling in now and managed to get some cheap treats for them. Salmon variety whiskas cat sticks - 3 stick pack (18g) was rtc at 20p at mori's tonight guess they'll be having the 6 stick packs in future as I've seen these come in elsewhere. On the subject of mori's their reductions on close to sell by date at my local store is very stingy e.g. £2 to £1.79 £3.89 to £3.50 is this usual policy for m's as I would have expected more like 50% for these whoopsie items which other stores seem to do.

    I get my cat sticks from Sainsbobs, a pack of 10 for £1.19, they do 2 different flavours, chickenvariety and a salmon variety.
  • Just got my porkie for my beans back! Thankfully compared them at £1. I bought them on Monday and submitted receipt straight away, got the usual email asking to re-submit, which I did a total of 5 times in all. Played around with the time and adjusted the clock to show 12 hour time (as someone on here suggested) and it's come back fine now.

    Don't give up peeps, hope you manage to get yours back which are stuck in the system :)

    I hand over about 4 or 5 on a daily basis. I do a bit of gift carding but not much...I would say I have about £20 on there. We eat very well I have to say...cashews/salmon/decent coffee etc are all dear:D.The OH drinks beer and that gets paid for with wombles too.

    To answer your question - I never lose a penny of it by them going out of date and I do hand over 3 or more at a time. If stuck for things to buy I go for teabags and things that will keep;)

    Thats the lovely thing about APG,s and PP''s from wombles ( and all the glitches etc)- we all get to eat much better food and drink that we would otherwise not be able to afford. I have cupboards groaning with food, 2 full freezers and a spare room full of things. I do the same thing if I have vouchers going out of date. I buy things like loo rolls or washing powder. Long live MSE and all who sail in her.!!!
