    after spending a day looking at one of my free beef joints in the fridge i gave up thinking of cooking it and put it in the freezer , i have to confess i have never cooked a joint of beef and the thought of ruining a £24 joint makes me:eek: i dont actually eat meat but the rest of the family do dd and family are going to come over at the weekend may tackle it then anyone got any tips please..

    OMG, can't belive you have never cooked a joint of beef before, send it my way, I will happily cook and EAT it for you, if you thinking you may ruin it.:D Or when I am next in wales, in a couple of weeks, I will come collect it lol.

    My trigger was a hair accessory to keep my hair up..... Don't ask, just look for them in store, easy to find! None at present are listed on MSM so you can choose from any in store that are labeled up on the 2 for £4 deal. Match up with a Herbal Essences that is on offer in Sainsbobs, check msm for these. As you can see I got Ignite my Colour cond.

    I also have £1.20 to claim from quidco, and got a £2 gift card handed to me for being over charged on a bottle of wheel cleaner in the sale isle. It's a spray bottle and had a SEL of 44p and scanned at £1.

    A happy shop. :D:j:D:j:D:j:D

    Afternoon ,
    Firstly Big Hugs for Logie bless you chemo is bad enough to cope with but blood tranfusion as well ......:grouphug:take care
    Had a nice walk in the sunshine and called into my local T's Express to pick up my free Easter egg ,what a joke :rotfl::rotfl:it is so small I cannot give it to one of the children so will have to eat it myself;)

    Whilst i was in there spotted some boxes of 5 malteser bunnies
    it said 3for £1-20 so I put 3 in my basket on getting at the checkout I noticed they were going through at £2 a box silly me opened my mouth and said no thats wrong.The outcome was I did not get dtd as had not paid but showed him that it said 3 for £1-20 and was told they had been put in wrong place(it was the single bunnies) started ranting at the staff but I ended up getting the 3 boxes for £1-20 saving £4-80:T.Popped in for coffee with Lala and she was suitably impressed as its the first time i have done this sort of thing on my own.:)

    A bit of a glitch at T.Express.:)

    Lurpack butter is currently on offer for the 250gm block, 2 for £2.
    On the yellow SEL in the Express I was in, it also said Lurpack spreadable 2 for £2 but for 500gm.
    This is individually priced at £3-13 and that is what it went through the till at.
    They let me have the butter for the SEL price but were not for giving DTD.:(
    They said it must be a misprint!

    Still, I was happy with the butter for £2.:D

    I went to another Express but the same SEL wasn't there.
    Hopefully someone might find the same label in their local.:)
    Just wish I had bought more than 2!!

    Afternoon nutters.
    Thank you to the op's for the butter and yogurts. I picked up some for me and my mum today and told about half a dozen of the mums at Playgroup today about it as well. I think I'm flavour of the month at the group today :D

    Hope everyone has had a good day. The sun has been shining all day here and it's felt practically tropical :D:rotfl:

    My little monkey had me in stitches earlier. He said he needed a wee, jumped down from the sofa, picked up the tv remote and paused the telly. Went for a wee, got comfy again and pressed play.:eek::rotfl: heaven forbid he should miss any fireman Sam while he has a piddle! :rotfl:
