Guys......I've got FIVE whole wombles to check. I'm super excited and pleased with myself. I'm getting better at spotting 'em and now I feel no shame! Didn't even look to see if anyone was giving me funny looks
I got a 6th but not enough items on it so left it.
Luckily my nearest Sada is inside a shopping mall type place so no soggy receipts
Fingers crossed they chuck something good out! Results for first three shortly.
It's been chucking it down here all day so wombling would be pointless
Hope you get some good onesI’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Health & Beauty, Greenfingered Moneysaving and How Much Have You Saved boards.

I knew there was something I forgot to tell you
In the Mail on Sunday there was an article about Champagne Sainsbobs - sainsbobs are having 2 levels of store and certain ones will stock premium brands of whiskey and oh so posh champagne.
Most of the stores on the list are south and London as you would expect, almost none in Wales and Scotland and just a few north.
Chester is on the list as you would expect, city store etc, our next nearest one.
but I was gobsmacked to see my local also on the list - never realised that it was so affluent around here that people could afford £120 bottles of champers - explains the big revamp in the wine section last week.
Needless to say within 2 miles of this store is a town with major unemployment, high teen pregnancy rates, large Eastern European population, very socially deprived“Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove.

Lovely pics,
We went to Slovenia last summer, and stayed in lake bohinj. So pretty, our cottage was right in the national park. Such a serene place.
It's lovely, tops the list of the 3 countries we visited and I will go back one day as I have my eye on a tandem skydive and some lovely cycling routes. Scenery is stunning.Something unexpected happened which made me smile and still continues to make me smile.

And remember, Sainsbobs is there to keep the riff raff out of Waitrose !
PS Now imagine there was a glitch with £120 champers.......Hope is not a strategy.0 -
