  • Lucozade Sport showing as £3.85 on msm and on A.com but it's on Rollback to £2 in store. Bought some earlier, will be interesting to see what price it compares at. Hopefully it'll be £3.85 v £1.92 in T's which would make it better than free after the apg? Fingers crossed anyways! Results at 14:58.

    Edit, it's the 4 pack btw!

    The ice cream van parks outside our primary school at lunch time to get the best spot.
    I tend to park round the other side of he school as I feel mean saying no but I can't do it everyday.
    I will buy the kids one tomorrow after sports day though

    I think ice cream vans outside schools should be banned :mad: they make us give them healthy lunches etc... and then we get bombarded with 'can I have's' after they're done for the day.
    If you can get some cheap the calippo ice lollies are ideal for after sports days.
    I've taken them in before when I wasn't sure the exact time they'd be done and it didn't matter if they melted a bit. My kids appreciated them more than a sticky ice cream after they'd been running around for an hour :)

    Some items it flat refuses to scan (shiny surfaces) and some it seems to scan while I'm just picking them off the shelf (super sensitive scanner?) but you're right about it scanning items better if you're not trying to fit the entire barcode in that rectangle.
    I did find recently if you go on the main menu there's a list called 'my scans' and everything you've ever scanned is already their so I've started scanning the contents on my cupboards/fridge/freezer in the comfort of my own home instead :D much to my kids disappointment as they like doing the scanning while wandering the supermarket :rotfl: one holds the ipod, one holds the item :D

    On the previous app it used to save your scans in date order. This app doesn't do that :mad:

    I went to a T's extra today and they had NO JF!!! I wanted the travel size but they had none, they didn't even have any sachets! What is that about??!!!

    No 1p crackers either :(

    I did manage to get some of the bacon that's 15p a slice from the deli counter and a few finest sausages as well. Felt like a wasted trip though :(

    My Tosca didn't have the sachets or the travel size either - where are they usually - with the normal bottles of shampoo? :)

    Grrrrrr @ candy crush!
    Finally completed level 197 :j . Had to resort to playing some other game to get some lollipop hammers and used those in the end on the last 2 bits of jelly which were driving me crackers :rotfl:

    Sachets are with the normal bottles.
    Travel bottles seem to be in both places in mine :)

    I checked with the moral John frieda full size products and in the extensive travel sized section. Nada in either.


    On the butchers counter they have 3 trays with different types of finest bacon (smoked, unsmoked and streaky) for 15p a slice which is half price.
    Same sort of offer with 4 types if finest sausages, all half price 20-30p each.
    I haven't had much luck with whoopsie meat lately (I've 2 kids and whoopsie time is right at dinner/bath/bed time) so I don't get out much, but at these prices I didn't mind buying it

    I wonder if you should have checked out the immoral ones instead :p

    I tried the Finest Meal Deal this morning. The Garlic Mash doesn't compare but I'm happy to say that the Garnacha does. Gives £1.99 back against Sada.

    Be careful when you pick up your wine though. The Garnacha wasn't in the fridge with the deal. Had to get it from the Spanish Red section. However, in the fridge is a Grenache. Had to double check on my phone to make sure that I was getting the correct thing.

    Also, if you are trying to use up a CS, Hellmans 430ml squeezy mayo is £2.49 in Tosco and compares to £1 at Morries. Could use it with pizza vouchers.

    Thank you to everyone whose advice has helped me in my desperate quest to make ends meet. x

    EDIT-Back on the quest, I've been away too long!
