    Ive never bought Loratadine myself, but I'd imagine you'll be able to find them even cheaper in the online pharmacies? Ive used a couple of different ones, depending on what deals are on when I need them. Ive used chemist direct, and pharmacy2u before and others that I can't remember now.
    Never had any problems with any of them.

    I think I used clear chemist before and they were pretty good. My Mum is a trained pharmacist so she knows her drugs :D and said the last lot we got were fine.

    Hayfever seems to be hitting DD and DH hard this year so will probably need a stockpile of the things for him.

    Hi guys, its been a while since ive been on here but ive been having a catch up and tried the oreo, J20’s and the S&G last night. I also tested some 2 for £5 cheese’s and ive found a trigger that is N/A on APG.

    I bought 1 x Wyke Red Mature 350g (in a very dark blue packet) and I bought it with 1 x Cathedral City 350g and only the Cathedral City showed on APG at full price. It didn’t compare much as I think it was only 2p difference to Tosco but im sure it will work out for one of the other cheese’s in the offer or against another supermarket. Im at work at the mo but ill look further into tonight when I get home.

    Hope this helps someone ;)

    Ruggered that up
    are the crisps on 3 for £4? thanks
    MyS is showing those crisps as 3 for £4 so assuming frequent did pay that in store, it works out as £2.66 for those 3 bags of 6.
    APG sees £4.94 in A - £3.60 in T (£4-10%).
    So £4 actual spend - £1.34 = £2.66

    Right, I'm off to do some work (my boss is out so i'll prob be back :D)

    Just noticed the time :eek:
    DH will have a fit if he finds I've been sat on here most of the day and not done anything around the house.
    Queue Benny Hill music and a manic half hour tidying session :D
    Wonder how tidy I can make the house look in 30 mins :think: I need one of them big countdown clocks :rotfl:

    Just back from a quick Ts trip :) Well it'd be rude not to once both boys napping and DH lazing on the sofa :p

    Found the Sensations honey roasted peanuts that were scanning at 1p had been restocked :j Checked at scanner and said 'please contact a member of staff' which has been a good sign in the past :D Went through till at £1 :( Probably 'old news' but i'm a tad forgetful these days :p Really should make notes as I go along....:cool:

    Logie, hope everyone is feeling better, good luck with the radiotherapy.
    My brother had 30 doses last year after a prostatectomy. Now he has hormones and hormone injections and get male pmt :o hot flushes and bad moods.
    Still not out of the woods, but he is back at work. said the side effects of the RT are very progressive and build up slowly, so don't overdo it.

    Am trying to be good but DH still playing the dying duck :rotfl: Will be heading for my treatment though soon and I cancelled my sister coming today so she doesn't catch their bug. So he'll just have to muddle through like I do then ;)
    Thanks rhosynbach, fairclaire and sarahdol. :)
    He's not too bad to be honest. A little bit clingy but no grumpiness and no scratching yet either. I've just had some calamine lotion dropped off so if he needs it he can have it.

    Hope your hubby and ds get better soon Logie. Stay away from their germs! :)

    Thanks Mrs S :) Hope your DS is better quickly. I heard good things about Virasoothe gel and saw it RTC in Morrisons a while back so bought to be prepared. Neither of them have had it yet though despite nursery and lots of groups for DS1. No doubt the gel will be out of date by the time we need it :D

    I'm not on a 5:2 today... but I bought a mini packet of jelly babies in A before. Looked at the back and saw 88 cals per serving. Scoffed them after my lunch in work and I've just read there are now 4 servings, all currently residing in my tummy! 356 cals for a 40p bag of jelly babies, I wish i'd have eaten cake!

    :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:


    Sorry, that is funny :p I have done that so many time with different things


    Today is a fasting day and I was too lazy to make my jelly last night, so I cheated and picked up some ready made on my way to work this morning....3 cals for the whole pot :j :j :j


    I am sure the stuff you make at home is more calorific than that


    I am very much looking forward to my 30 cal flump later today :j :j

    Spray furniture polish, shove some plug in's around the house, plump the cushions, quickly cook something and shove it in the oven/slow pot!!

    My hay fever is particularly bad this year as well. Some days I'm absolutely fine and other days I'm a streaming, sneezing mess :( Not a good look :o

    I couldnt believe how much cals are in jelly babies :eek: I'm fasting tomo. I either do tinned tomatoes on a slice of brown toast or a huge salad with tuna. My other treat option is from Waitrose, a lovely prawn laksa curry/soup with noodles and it's 300 odd cals. Feels like it should be about 900 cals though and is delicious.

    Think I'm going to do jelly tonight (i have some in). good luck with the rest of the fasting today
