    I will just say first good on you for what you are doing. :T

    But not everyone who is on benefits is hard up, in need of foodbanks etc I am sure for some it frees up money for other things.

    I know 50 inch tvs and Stella/Bud are not cheap especially when you are starting at 11 in the morning.

    Before I get attacked I am not saying everyone not by a long way, but I have seen plenty of them that are out sunbathing all day with their cans drunk at 12 ish while the rest of us work.

    It is these that can give the rest a bad name so to speak.

    When I was on the dole I got £56 a week that was it, so I was not living the high life on that.

    The good thing about giving is you don't know who gets it. And regardless of who does, it's not for me to judge. I'm sure the vast majority of the food I give goes to those who truly need it.

    We all deserve (amongst other things) an NHS we don't need to pay for and support when we're out of work. A few take advantage but in the grand scheme of things these systems help a lot of people. They don't need to be dismantled as MPs salaries go up.

    Anyway, I'm off out to enjoy the sunshine :)

    Morning folks

    Been to Tesco this morning and the receipt was cut off part way down so I can't get cashback on my danio yogs :mad:

    Anyone who has the 50p off danio vouchers from bzz, they're currently 3 for £2, so get 6 and they'll work out free :D

    I'm going to go and see my brother shortly. I've spoken to him and he seems ok, but his headache is still 8/10 :( he's had a ct angiogram this morning, which is going more to confirm what I am thinking :(

    I'm not talking about a direct quote locarr. Pick up a paper, if its not benefit scroungers or foreigners being a drain on our health service....it's a subtle demonisation and the conservatives have been doing it for years.

    I think it's safe to say our politics are radically different and I really don't want a row so lets leave it here.


    Nonsense. one shouldn't make sweeping unsubtaintiated claims that others believe and perpetuate if you don't wish to be challenged. That is all.

    In case it hasn't been mentioned yet, just been to Tescos and they have put the price of their bottled water up to 24p from 17p. (So don't buy as a filler in A, on a A vs T shop!!) Asda and Sains still 17p at the moment. I also got caught by the millicano instant coffee 100g, listed on msm as 4.98 in A, 2.49 in S, but comparing at full price of 4.99 in S. Still listed on msm as being on ofer in S until 23rd July.

    Good morning again everyone:) - just going backwards through your posts:D. I think these may be cheaper in Morries (but didn't take any details unfortunately due to them being more expensive on shelf prices than Waities recently were). So maybe Tvs M - if you can find out which compare:D. (Or Avs M if the vouchers valid there - sorry been dealing with M list earlier and not been able to track every voucher in existence:D.)

    Could be sub-zero prices on the Danios:money:.
