    Strawberry and chocolate appeared on MyS as being in the multibuy - noticed at 8.32. Still bought them though :D might help in figuring out what time APG ran an updated. Results at 11.58.
    Something unexpected happened which made me smile and still continues to make me smile.

    Just to say the Fruit Bowl Raspberry school bars are scanning as normal in Sainsbees £1.29 a pack - was worth trying xx

    I thought they might, thanx for trying :)
    Looking on Ss website they have the raspberry school bars listed twice but one shows the wrong picture.
    One says 100g and the other with the wrong pic says x5 100g.
    If only As or Ts could pick up on the error (I'm thinking the description is wrong on a new line and it's actually flakes :( ) I could do with these for lunch boxes!

Bought a couple, and yes went through the till at £7.00 without a problem! what a bargain! I'm going to go back to get some more, Is it too early to stock up for Christmas yet? LOl!:beer:

    Nice post . By the way, why is that? When I first got married I put on 2 stone before I realised and Stan had started to make comments. So I lost the weight by controling portion sizes. But, these days, he doesn't notice. Infact, if I went shopping in the nuddy, I don't think he'd bat an eye lid!

    Just been to two expresses and got 18 bottles of Fairy in total. Was quite surprised there was so much left in there. I asked the SA (who was lovely by the way), if there were any more out back. She said, no. But they're getting a delivery today. So I may nip back tea time.

    Also got 7 boxes of 1p chocs yesterday. The hand finished ones no less!

    Finally, I hope everybody has a lovely day, whatever you are doing. And Tiny, well done love.

    To be fair it's due to time. I used to live with mum and dad when I left the ex and had hours to spend in the gym as I wasn't doing anything else. I had a six pack and everything :o Having a wife and 5 kids instantly took up all my time. The OH has started Zumba recently and other activities and I'm taking the dog out more with DS1 to try and bond better.

    Hopefully it will all continue but I must cut the junky kebabs out! :o

    As for 1p chocs - I've not even looked for them. Congrats on the WUL. I still have plenty left but may stock another 10 in if I find any.

    Hope you're having a good day. :A

    Ipad 2 with 16GB is fine unless you want to store loads of films at the same time. Camera may not be as good as the latest ipad, but it is perfectly decent. Don't go for the ipad 1 as there is no camera.

    Try and get refurbished from the apple store. (£259 vs £329). Rumoured to be new but with the old operating system that updates itself the minute you register the machine. I can vouch for how easy it is to update and it certainly seemed new.

    Or simply get the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 which is far superior in every way possible bar screen resolution - Oh, and it';s not an apple so if anything goes wrong, it's cheap to fix.

    HTH

    PS - The daughter has an Ipad 3 16GB and the wife the Galaxy Note. Although the daughter is never off the iPad as it's hers, she constantly just plays games on it. Whenever she wants to do drawing or work (as she's a good artist) it's over to mum's Galaxy Note!

    EDIT -

    I concur with this!

    Right - I'm due an upgrade from my S3 at £23 a month unlimited calls, unlimited text and 2gb of data - Vodafone been with 12 years!

    So do I downgrade and keep my S3 to Virgin's £12 tariff or do I upgrade to Voda's £37 a month S4, or do I downgrade to an iPhone 5 and pay stupid money for dated technology - hmmm?!

    Any ideas anyone?!

    Saw your post on the grabbit board - a great deal if you can get it and if you like champagne. My OH prefers CAVA so is a cheap date :D
