    OK off to do a Muller shop, wish me luck!

    It has been raining non-stop (literally!) for the last two days and it doesn't look to be stopping any time soon so I might as well go now! :cool:

    still no mags or leaflets here yet:( I'd have to resort to the printed ones, which Ive never tried before......but I would for wine :rotfl:

    on the subject of coupons I found a bundle of Campbell's soup ones today and have no memory of where I got them? proper coupons, not prints and they're valid until the end of the year.

    Cambells coupons were from an email survey around october.
    My survey went ' do you buy tinned soup?' , me ' no'. End of survey.
    Got 5 coupons for my trouble some rice, some soup.

    . I do think a chaise lounge is a good description of you though. Stylish yet comfortable and laid back :)

    May the odds be ever in your favour;)

    Well I've done my APG shop, approximately 2.5 left until results, fingers crossed! Either way I didn't buy anything I wouldn't have bought anyway.......but I'd like to get it properly cheap! :D

    Results are in! This is my first planned APG for aaaaaages! Fillers removed x

    1 x Schwartz Whole Cloves (22g)£2.46£1.99
    10 x Muller Crunch Corner Banana Chocolate Flakes Yogur...£5.72£3.40
    1 x McVitie's Digestive Biscuits (500g)£1.09£1.00
    1 x Ribena Plus Immunity Support ACE Blackcurrant No A...£1.49£1.00
    2 x Kellogg's Special K Biscuit Moments Chocolate (5x2...£3.96£1.98
    1 x ASDA Butcher's Selection Unsmoked Back Bacon Rashe...£2.00£2.69
    1 x ASDA Butcher's Selection Smoked Back Bacon Rashers...£2.00N/A

    Note that the smoked rashers above don't compare so you end up losing money from your APG, but if you get 2 x unsmoked this won't happen as they compare with S at the same price so make a good filler :)

    Also I bought some A's Fromage Frais 500g to use as a filler but don't count it as one of your 8 items as it didn't show up on the APG, hth someone xx

    EDIT: I put my other receipt in and if anyone is doing a shop A vs M, this might be useful as a filler, it comes in a little packet of 6 sachets..... 1 x Dr. Oetker Cream of Tartar (30g)£1.09 £0.59, the Schwartz whole cloves as above also compare favourably.
