    the slippers are still available to buy. I bought 2 pairs using points. They are lush and feet are so cosy. I have been trying to economise on heating and there is nothing worse than cold feet.

    Ordered 2 pairs this morning and they have just been despatched :j
    Thank you Rosie :)

    Loyd Grossman sauces are on offer in A, T and S. If you would use these (as I do) they're good for making up your 8 items. I've made 2 lists of which are included. Some of these may not be available in Asda, sorry I've not had time to check

    EDIT: They are £1 in all 3 supermarkets (normally £1.98)

    And £1 in M's too (sorry, I don't have any idea which ones as new items and too many to check this week). If anyone's route to A takes you via M, maybe you could pop in and have a look and let us know?

    I'll check which ones at avail. in A and post a revised 'vs T' and 'vs S' list of them, once I've dealt with everything else on my schedule! Just off to do some domestics around the house (a bit of a tidy-up) and then I'm back to finish off the vs M list. All the shopping now done for today - unless a major glitch comes along of course!

    Also I've added a few extra items to my Sains BM lists* (see the links on page 276) and, as part of my spending of the BM coupon (double points is the shop afterwards), I picked up one of the Sains. Basics cheesecakes (frozen) in-store. Made a very good choice (again!) as Sada don't have S/P Cheesecakes of this type and, looking on MSM.co.uk belatedly - sometimes I don't always get full time to check everything - S are cheapest per 100g of any of the stores covered, so I'm adding it onto the two BM lists.

    *Not a full updating - some of the items on before, that may have expired, haven't been removed, but I've added a few new items (on which S is the best value as far as I'm aware).

    Probably too late :D
    I have placed bets totalling £24. Had a couple of small wins, and my balance is now £10.50.
    Does this mean have done enough for TCB and can now withdraw the £10.50?

    The Lenor coupons on SuperSavvyMe for Sainsbees are great if you have any nectar points from wombles. £1 vouchers off each bottle - 3 different coupons per print. (They are the larger bottles too not the 750ml ones) They are on offer at £2 a bottle currently, which means you pay 50p and a £2.50 nectar coupon for £10.00 worth of softner.

    The coupons for fairy are also working, 50p off a bottle, and they are on offer at 2 for £2.00, so 50p a bottle in the end.

    I had two lots of coupons, one from my computer and one from my husbands. :D really happy
    Wishing you all good luck!

    Have you not got one of these or something similar kicking about

    Cut the bottom out and away you go :D
    I could not bare to cut one up, they are far too useful, although I think I threw a split one out, sods law. I actually think they may be too wide for the sacks I am using. I used to have one of those plastic liners that go into posh bins that I could have chopped the bottom off, but threw that too. Do you have one lying about I could borrow? ;):D

    just got dtd on finest meal deal, paid £18, so got 16 back:T, bloody jobsworth on the till wouldn't take the finest £2 voucher cos it wouldn't scan, called supervisor who hadn't arrived after 10 minutes, so I had my voucher back and told him I would call head office - didn't mention it to CS lady as she was a bit of a trout and I had to ask twice for dtd on the overcharge.
    I got Classic lamb & champ ( was all they had apart from chicken in slop)
    Roast potatoes in goose fat
    Chocolate melting middle deserts - wanted the profiteroles, but none of them left either :mad:
    Montepulciano wine
    paid £48, used a £5 HH
    I got a 9.49 pp back too
    and £16 dtd :D
    and oops gave the pp to my oh to use on our normal shop. didn't notice till I got home the boy on the till gave him the pp back :eek: Will his till be down??
    I think the meal deal didn't kick in as the roast potatoes in goose fat are not part of the deal, it is the other finest roast potatoes which are even though they are the same price.

    Ooooo, I could just put the bag inside a large plant pot, then turn the tops over the pot, fill it, then pull the bag out, that could work if I can find a pot. Just having a breat ATM, 24 sacks filled, about 120 left to go!
    Just had some bad news when I went to the tip yesterday though. As of Monday, you are going to need a permit if you are in anything else but a car. I know other tips have been like this for years, but it was great not having to faff about, and also I think they are limited to 5 trips a year, what good is that???

    Am I being clueless - why are we buying LLoyd Grossman sauces apart from making up the numbers in a
    Sada v tosco shop or a
    is there a PDF MOC?
    Are they on the list for Quidco or Topcash?

    Not really caught up Q/TC yet this week - seemed to be getting things on the list we don't buy or don't use or don't have MOcs for and things that never appear on trolley recs ....
