    Need some advice.

    Until recently I didn't freeze anything that I didn't buy frozen from a supermarket. It was an MSE step for me to freeze fresh stuff!

    I've made a newbie mistake however and have kept some lovely 'Butchers Choice - Extra Lean Mince' over a month.

    It's dated BB 13th Feb so it's coming up to the 2 months and was frozen on date of purchase.

    Do I throw it out or are the guidelines ridiculous?

    My mum says keep for up to 3 months, but she isn't always the best to talk to about this sort of thing..!

    Help appreciated!

    I keep it for up to 3 months and probably longer than that, it's not done me any harm so far

  • Anyway the Easter egg hunt was a massive popular success plus the lamb I cooked up for lunch was really tender & tasty. Had the in-laws round and most of them had never had lamb before and my bro-I-l had last tasted lamb 15 years ago lol

    So fair to say another popular success!

    Jackpot city (slots only) is £30.30 on TCB when you deposit and spend £10. Quidco is £50 for a £40 spend. Hope it price matches for a brucie bonus :D

    Don't forget to to opt out of the casino bonus before you deposit your £10 or you'll need to play about £500 worth to be able to withdraw and the chances of having any funds left are slim. Cost me £5.60 when i forgot :o

    In most freezers that'd be absolutely fine, keep it for a year if you feel like it.

    The only ones to really beware of are those old fridges with a tiny freezer compartment on top of a biggish fridge - they really are quite useless.

    Fudge Cake it so lovely to see you posting again!

    I had a fab weekend away, got off the plane here, home for some dinner and back out again for an impromptu belated birthday night :j fab times, rolling in at 2am and not having to get up for work today :j :j

    No shopping for me today. My debit card has expired and my bank sent the replacement 3 months ago. I put it in a safe place and then couldn't find it. They are sending a replacement but all the bank holidays mean that it's not going to arrive until at least Wednesday. So I get a couple of forced no spend days :D

    Your puddy is gorgeous. One of mine is in the dog house - it has shredded one of the dining room chairs. I thought she was just sleeping in the bay window in there these last few days when the sun was out, oh but how wrong was I :(

  • My post office travel insurance TCB cashback is now payable - pdq @ 2 weeks so worth a try.

    Edit: except I can't find it any more, seems it's gone from the TCB site.
