Expert League In Thrifty Everyday (Situations)

Tinyshoes

My Approved Food order arrived bang on time.

Bit of a shock how big 1kg marshmallows actually is.

And the Mr Bumps are bit smaller than I thought.

Meant to be filling the lounge with DD1s stuff tonight ready to pack in her car tomorrow and now I have filled it with my order. Not sure what Mr TS will say when he gets back. :eek:

He will be pleased with his Pataks pickles though. 3 for £1.

Loolah

:j

such excitement

First I got the Harpics, some Jacobs and Mincemeat.

Today I nipped into a different branch and got more Jacobs and found the baby bath. lovely lady on SS noticed how cheap the bath bubbles were and asked where to find them, she stayed chatting so I had to put the Jacobs through. She was thrilled at the price and said she would get some later. I offered to go so grabbed a few for her - think I made a friend! so will always go to her if I can

Then on to A's where I got a few of the kitchen rolls

Thanks to everyone who takes the time to share their finds

Very impressed with Peppa Pigs car. I fancied a bit of twitching so .....



Daughter was more ambitious and decided on a throne and footrest
here's the finished one




Just about to try it out...



HELP!!!!!!!!!!

Signing off for the night as have so much to do before DD1 leaves tomorrow. :eek:

Going to enjoy a nice chinese takeaway later. Girls picking it now.

I'm not happy as Mr TS had some meeting booked and wont be back until later. Away fathers day too. :mad:

So MKS at the moment he is NOT my (K)Night in shining armour.

What a conundrum


Do I go east to A to see if there are any kitchen rolls or west to T to buy the 1p crackers I have hid behind the weight watchers crackers.


I hate making big decisions like this:)

No point going to Boldon, only about 20 left when I left TM. I also have had a report that there was none at Grangetown, but the person looking isnt the best mind (She said they were £1.25)

Good afternoon everyone :wave:

I don't think my shopping lists really help anyone but they may help Savvy with his M comparisons:

[SP Baguette and Hipp Organics 85p in A...]

Thank you:beer:. I'm not understanding the SP Baguette price for M - APG is saying 34p each but I have the Fresh one at 32p for M and the Frozen one 30p. This is the fresh one on the comparison isn't it? I'll cross-check it at the next opportunity in a different M (not that's it that much difference:eek:). I guess, as I have the prices I have, it's difficult for me to accept any challenge to their accuracy (unless I've made a mistake, which I haven't on these two items). It's possible the prices in the stores the APG has used are different... but I think it more likely that I have the right prices:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:. (Then again I suppose I would tend to think that, but - believe it or believe it not - I am open to any suggestion that I have it wrong. I don't on these - I can see those SELs in M for both those products in my mind - and in two sep. stores for each of them!)

Whilst checking the M list this afternoon, I noted all the Hipp Organics (of the size you bought) are Avs T (those also available in T at any rate - well, not any rate, at the rate of 50p:rotfl:). M are the price indicated on your comparison. M do have a couple at 59p - they're both new ones however (I think possibly two that show as "new item" on MSM.co.uk) and, as new items, might return N/A vs M at the moment. One of which is available in T at 50p (so Avs T not M) and one available only in A and M (so only vs M but only if you insist on having that specific one) - detail on my M list.:)

My M list has been contributed to, over two days, from 3 separate Morries! I only need one more now before I can claim "checked in more Morries stores than Tosco has checked for it".:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Albeit that one of them gave me 99% of the prices!

New sums, how many days, weeks, months is that lot going to last you.

Retirement no way, you will not be able to resist if a better offer comes along. :rotfl:

I have reorganised my stash didn't bother adding them up as I knew you would win. Thanks for posting the pic, I could probably squeeze a couple bottles of those on the shelves as had to pack the packets in a box, hope Mr TS does not mistake it for something else.

A few years and no I will resist must resist, have to resist

It's the fresh one from the chilled cabinet but I know there's two 'smartprice' garlic baguettes and always assumed the other one was maybe a sliced baguette. I've never been in Morribobs so can't do the checking for you I'm afraid.

I get the baby foods most weeks and deliberately target them against Tosco (again, due to not knowing much about morribobs prices).

I used to put my marshmallows in the freezer for a few hours. They seemed to last longer in my mouth that way :rotfl:
