Today's Mr Ts shop - bought 3 x finest meal deals + 3 extra bottles of wine, bavaria, Parioli toms plus a few fillers just in case. Sub-total was £77.61 after multi-buy and 26% wine discounts £44.65 used coupons for bavaria, 2 x Parioli, 3 x finest and £5 HH (none of the finest coupons scanned but were put through manually by SA) Total actually paid £31.65 and got back a £10 PP and another £5 HH.
Can't help feeling I could have done it better as I lost £5.66 by going over on the PP. Still I am saying that we got 6 very nice bottles of wine for £3.60 each and everything else free!

Afternoon all. Not been online for a couple of days and got 20+ pages to catch up on (on 212 ATM). PC would not start up properly so had to play about and ended doing a system restore
Will have to catch up later as i'm off out now for the afternoon.
Hope everyone is well. Hugs and best wishes to everyone that needs them.
HAPPY EASTER'Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle'0 -

My dear FIL died on Tuesday night. He was a lovely, lovely man who always had a smile for everyone and was loved by everyone he met.
Me, my lovely wife and my beautiful 6yo daughter have all taken it very badly and we all turn on the waterworks at every opportunity. Thankfully my 4yo DS is still too young to understand.
Anyway, give me some time and I'll be back insulting those who deserve it (like dotty). Until then, happy glitchin', smell ya later..
Afternoon everyone:)
Just nipping in quickly to give a huge hug to SFSB:(I am so sorry for your loss xxxx
And big hugs to Tinyshoes tooxxxx

thanks. might just copy your shop.grocery challenge 9.86/600 -
Well, I had some coupons due to expire tomorrow, needed a few bits from Ts and a HH coupon to use up so decided to do another wine shop
Proper sized bottles this time; they'll keep
DH was getting a bit cross with me this morning checking and double checking prices between T.com and A.com but was impressed with my £59 shop down to just over £38 with multibuys and coupons, then I got £9.76 PPNot bad considering I'd got the mums flowers instead of eggs for Easter. I just screwed up on the pastry as they didn't have the one I planned to buy.
Here's my comparison in case of use to anyone else.
Hope you're all having a good day
Logies can I just ask is the bottom wine the one CoT found?
Is the 25% to come off these prices?
Sorry I'm slow today:)To do is to be. Rousseau
