    This is the reason for my torment :o I was in As today and they had a big rack of T shirts reduced to £1 and £1.50. To be honest I didn't really look at them in too much detail. They were t shirts and they were cheap.

    When I got home my DD noticed this was a men's one. I said 'oh your dad won't wear that....I'll wear it in the garden ' I genuinely didn't know what Buff meant :o:o:o:o I thought it just meant a buff at something, as in being an enthusiast. Cue much laughter and strange comments from my kids......ah well at least they've had fun :mad::cool::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: The little sods were telling to wear to it to go out:eek:

    Debt-free and Proud!
    There was also a comparison with Waitrose. I didn't include it as I didn't think it'd be helpful to anyone. But glad the rest of it could be of use Savvy.

    I'm definitely going to print out small wombles. They seem large to someone who hasn't wombled before! Money off! From an old receipt! Well I never....

    Is 68p enough to print? My first (non-nil) return on a womble was 49p - which I printed off - but with £1.24s and £2.60s coming out from my car-parks run this afternoon, I'm thinking of prioritising a bit more:rotfl:. Not bragging at all, just making a relevant point. (Q.V.: my modesty at the very end of my last post.)

    EMMAP, as regards whether your results help anyone -

    I have taken to quoting them in full, so you know from that they must be useful!;):) Many thanks.

    Is 68p enough to print.If you come from the northern part of the UK 1p is enough YES:D
    Savvy i dont quote your post much as my phone is a pain when trying to quote big posts.I do find your lists so good and thanks for the time you spend on them:beer:
