    It is fun using the coupons I get so excited!

    Not as much fun as Boots Time Delay though that was the best ever !

    Yep I find the whole coupons thing v stressful and I can only do it by myself (!), I need to get in the 'zone' before I walk upto the checkout and can't do that with oh or daughter in tow!

    But saying that I do get buzz out of it when it works and spend a good 5 mins at in the car studying my receipt in the carpark ! :rotfl:

    Today i had great delight in going to Morrisons, armed with my impulse recall vouchers. Only used 3 though, got 2 x vaseline intensive care (half price at mo) and 2 x comfort fabric softener. SA looked at them puzzlingly but just scanned them as v.busy. Think i was a few pence in profit. Also got bake in the box cake on TMF, not up to my usual standard in home baking but intending to take it on holiday. Will be nice to have a break from tesco's as there is only a co-op in Jersey!!!

    A couple of people have mentioned getting the John Frieda Miraculous Recovery sachets which are £1.49 for free using the So Beautiful £1.50 off John Frieda coupons. I used the same coupons tonight to buy John Frieda Frizz Ease Hair Serum, which is 99p for a twin sachet pack. So Mr T has paid me £1.02 tonight as well as supplying 2 packs for free :D

    I think there could well be an awful lot of 'me too's' to this. Yesterday, I nearly didn't bother getting any H&B items as I didn't know if I could face the 'will they, won't they' stress and, really, I was thinking, do I actually need anymore H&B items. Notice I said nearly! When it actually came to it, as I had some vouchers on me, I couldn't resist doing another small H&B shop in amongst my other items. My DH & DSs just shake their heads when I walk in with a Tesco receipt and we go through the performance of how much the bill should have been, how much it is after bogofs and then how much I actually paid. I keep telling DH he should be pleased that I have got such a hobby!

    Kind regards

    For the past few days, I have been keeping
    my H&B in the boot of the car, as my OH thinks
    I'm crazy.
    I'll bring it into the house tomorrow,
    when he goes back to work, :D
