The ELITE. The very best of everything :)

I've just printed my APG off and there is a coupon on it for 50p off Bulmers, valid from today until 08/08

I got one this morning too - no idea where it has come from :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I have tried at least twice to get the FB coupon for the meals - anybody got the link handy, maybe 3rd time lucky Thank you.

I think this is it, but when I click on it it just says 'Ooops, you can only enter once' so I can't check for you.

If not, then on FB search for' Win A Top Chef To Cook For You'

I have just edited my signature and I really wanted to say a heartfelt thank you.

When I found the ELITE at New Year '13 we were in our second year of struggling since my husband's redundancy. We have six children and a rather large mortgage and benefits weren't quite stretching. My husband and I were literally living on toast and value pasta so that the children could have some fruit and veg etc.

You guys opened my eyes to the amount of money that I could save on food shopping etc. I thought that I was doing the right thing by buying 'value' everything but I was so wrong. I have learnt so much from you.

I am happy to say that seven months on my husband has a new job which has just been made permanent (after contracting since March). Financially, we are so much better off but this isn't because he has a huge salary (I wish) this is because of what I have learned from the ELITE. I have a small stash, know my target prices for most things and stick to them, and only buy if something represents good value for money (is a bargain) and I NEED it. I even have a coupon wallet! We do not waste money any more.

I love how the people on this thread work together, share knowledge and support each other. There is always someone here to help. I don't post an awful lot as I feel that I don't have much to contribute- I still have a lot to learn- but I love reading and feeling part of something special. Just today that spirit of sharing and assisting has been demonstrated in response to my post about the Ready Meal vouchers. It makes me sad when I read criticism from people who don't use the thread, saying that the ELITE are selfish and greedy. This is so far from the truth. This is a kind, cooperative place- even though I am not a prolific contributor I am always made to feel welcome.

So that is my rather long winded way of saying thank you- for everything that you have shared, all that you have taught me, your kindness and generosity. You have made the hugest difference to my family's life.

Such a lovely post!
I could have written almost the same as our situation is similar.
The Elite are far from selfish, I've found them very welcoming (although some are a little scary initially ) and I've been taught so much.

Sorry to bore you all, but can't contain myself. oh my giddy god, just been for official weigh in at the docs and nearly piddled myself! My scales must be way out, doc said I have lost nearly 2 freakin stone (short 4lbs) holy cow. :j Still got a long way to go but I'm delighted with the first hurdle being cleared.

Fantastic Witch Hazel ....... though if you had piddled yourself, you might have lost a little more :rotfl: :rotfl:

isnt there a saying to the effect ignore them and they will go away ? i find it to be so. i have ignored people who have been nasty to me and a lot of them have gone away. those who didnt eventually came to like me

I don't think I have been nasty to you Tom but I certainly took time to warm to you ... and definitely get your sense of humour now :j

Where have people been finding the Ready Meals booklet please?

Is it possible I have been looking in the wrong place?

Queenie, I found mine against the wall on the way out as you pass by the tills. There was a cardboard stand of them (2 piles wide) Locations will vary from store to store.

This is what the front cover of the booklet looks like

I may be able to PM you later with more info

By the tills and in standalone displays by the chiller cabinets.

Thank you JulieElizabeth, I will go and have another look tomorrow, I have been looking on and behind the tills but I hadn't looked at the ready meals area because I haven't bought one this week.
