Good morning everyone.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2319150/Jordan-Cox-voucher-vulture-savvy-shopping-meant-mum-got-106-supermarket-goods-just-1-62.html
Hoping for a trip to a new Mr T today, maybe some 1p bargains to be had. Hope everyone has a good day
I've just read this article in my paper - and I'm not sure what to think ! Apart from the article itself they have printed - in full including his Club Card number ! - the receipt. Apart from nappies @ £5.95, some £4 cat food and £4.49 cheese just about everything else is around a pound or two per item.
So how in hell did he get away with 3 x £5 coupons, 1 x £6 coupon and numerous £2 and £3 coupons - only about 7 coupons are less than £1 out of a total of 54 coupons ! I am amazed that he was able to do that - and even more taken aback that he has allowed it all to be published in such detail without taking into account that Tesco will be looking VERY closely at his shopping from now on and he might find it rather more difficult in future. I don't mind sticking my head above the parapet when I'm trouted but surely a lower profile would hve been more sensible in this case ? Or have I just got a major fit of the green eyed monster?ELITE 5:2

A very accommodating SA? More likely they were cc vouchers? Can't see any harm in it as long as the vouchers were genuine, good on him0 -
The Gillette Series Irritation 5 Defense Soothing Shaving Gel
(200ml) £3.00 is not included in the 2 for £3 offer like the other gillette foams or gels but in 2 shops there has been a label up for this item saying 2 for £4. It compares to T where it is 2 for £4, works out free with £2 gift card for being overcharged
Even better in my local label reads 2 for £3.
£3 refund £2 gift card and alls well an APG for nearly £3.
This would make a £9.10 shop to around £1.20.
Results later.
Thanks to OP for andrex now the owner of 10 packs and left some for others.:beer:0 -
Morning all, where's the sun gone:(
One week on and nothing from the Royal Mint. Anyone had a delivery yet ?
I notice they've not even charged my card yet, though there is a hold on the funds.Answered my own question;
Due to high demand we are currently unable to guarantee despatch of your order within the 3 working day period as agreed. Please accept our sincere apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.
Nice of them to let me know ! And the cheeky gits have changed my order date from 27/04 to 02/05, but why ???
Mine came on Thursday, so they are getting dispatched, just slowly.“Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?”

He was going to Ripon was he not, I remember him mentioning good frost proof pots
Morning all,
Correct D. Had another muggle day in Ripon (and Daleside Nurseries) but was so traumatised at having spent £128 on terracotta pots etc that I had to have an early night to recover:rotfl::rotfl:Awaiting a new sig0
