    Got blinking job you are not from here - your wombling skills are superb:D

    Beginners luck and no inhibitions as to what the casual onlooker thinks of me eyeing up trolleys and picking up scraps of paper :D RL has thrown me a few big spanners recently and this is my escapism :o

    Though I'm now sure one of the trolley boys has clocked me.

    Today, only 6 and £2.47

    Havegot my head around when/how many to print each day to extend their life. My only problem now is how to spend 112 APG's :D

    Had a fab evening so far :D Aunt and Uncle popped over for a visit again, still just arrived on the doorstep but this time i'd been tipped off by my Mum to expect them ;) Have blitzed house in preparation today so it was clean and tidy and I felt much more relaxed :)

    One thing has completely astounded me though. My Aunt knows a lady from swimming and has obviously told her about our situation. This lady who I don't know apparently asks about me every day :A She won a £100 Mr Ts gift card which she insisted to my Aunt that she would not use and put through her letterbox to be passed on to us :eek: How amazing is that? :eek::D I've got the lady's address so I can send a thank you card but not sure I'm going to be able to express properly how amazed and grateful we are :A

    I agree. I don't give a toss who's looking at me

    Mind you, patty and I were followed into some waste ground by a manager yesterday :eek:

    What a wonderful gesture! She won't expect you to express exactly how you feel, she's just going to get such a warm feeling knowing she has helped. Some people struggle with words or find it hard to offer practical help and its her way of showing she cares for you. Enjoy:)

    Have a large one 1 mile away which I HAVE to pass to get anywhere so frequent hit and runs were made this weekend....it worked :D A smaller one about 6 miles away.
    The A Aces are pretty efficient at the large one so timing is of the essence, quite often draw a blank if they've been clearing up.

    Told you I'd be here most of the evening! As predicted, third womble no use. I've selected the worst comparison (from our point of view) first. They bought the Jam Tarts whose equivalent at T I suggested to buy in T, vs A, not that long ago.

    Small pack of Coco Pops at £1, for Tvs A or Svs A, but why not try SP Coco Rice Cereal 83p vs T (or, not Northern Ireland, vs M)? Hazelnut Brunch bars £1.99 T vs £1.00 A (but - this shop done today - might still be using last week's info.??? - they are Avs M, outside N.I, according to the APG, £1.00 vs £1.00).

    Okay, have a rest of a good night tonight (if you need them, good hugs) and, if you are still to go, happy shopping!! All in all, not a bad time tonight - one ruler for -£1.75 (and this zero womble) from the store a little farther away and £4.77+£1.94 from the nearer store! Definitely worth briefly visiting both:D:T.
