    Yes I had a look at that one but its still £5 in Sada - I was hoping for wine £3 and under - yes I know too much to hope for :(

    Tesco Simply Organic Chenin Chardonnay Viognier

    sel says £4.49, scans at £2.99

    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 ....

    I don't think they are on Q/TC (I also haven't caught up in the last few days), so I think you're right (probably why I didn't get the details in M as larger sizes of other brands are better value) - I was responding to a post.

    There are plenty of good value (even better with cashbacks) items on my Avs M list already, at least eight of which you might already be buying, so you shouldn't need any fillers.

    Please also see my original reply post above, as I've now added other information on totally different matters!

    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.

    oops, in my defence they were in the fridge with the rest of the meal deal items

    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??


    these potatoes are not part of the meal deal...
    the ones which are included are the polenta coated ones with garlic.

    Afternoon everyone and Dotty if you are about. :D

    Have had a nice helping hand from Ts and Dodo and the OPs for the finest meal deal monte wine and simply organic white. :T

    Managed to do a quick shop earlier today while mum was in a deep sleep. Could not have done it without you all. Good to know I have not lost it yet, although nerves did set at the till as it has been so long. :eek:

    £76 shop before discounts/coupons down to £32 after with a £6.52 PP back. :j

    Good to know I am not a muggle after all. :p

    Clearing out the garage and found a bag of money. Must have been left by previous owners. On closer examination it turned out to be pound notes (yes real £ before they joined the Euro!) from the Bank of Cyprus. Only £20, probably not worth the paper they are written on!

    There was a few bottles left in one of my local extras thanks CoT, I only took 3 to make up my 6 bottles with 3 meal deals. Lots of the monte wine in the alcohol aisle too. ;)
