    Think I'll make a start on tomorrow's shopping list.
    I've got a £40 cond spend to use and a £9 PP to recycle. Now where do i start.
    Savvy, any ideas? :D
    I'm not targeting Morries (did that yesterday)
    Is it worth giving the meal deal a go and doing an As shop?

    I've got (I only partially know why) a number of items that shouldn't be avail. in A, these add up to £20.42 spend (so, halfway there) - do T bogofs count as 2x single price (towards the £40) or do they just count at the price you actually pay? See the Fresh & Naked leaves:

    T - should be N/A in A
    Honey Monster Foods Sugar Puffs (625g)£1.49
    East End Desiccated Coconut (200g)50p
    Tesco Everyday Value Wheat Biscuits (24x18g)94p
    Tesco Everyday Value Frozen Pork Chops (800g)£2.50
    Tesco Alaskan Salmon Fillets (frozen) (6 per pack - 600g)£5.00
    Country Store Cauliflower Carrot & Broccoli Mix (1Kg)99p
    2xCofresh Vegetable Nuggets (400g)2 for £1.50
    2xTesco Crispy Chicken (4 per pack - 380g)2 for £3.50
    Rustlers Microwave Quarter Pounder (190g)£1.00
    Zugo's Hot and Crispy Bacon & Cheese Panini (145g)£1.00
    Ye Olde Oak Ham (300g)£1.00
    2xFresh & Naked Big Mixed Little Leaves (90g)£1.00 - bogof

    Definitely not doing a Morries comp. on this one - M's price on the 625g Sugar Puffs is still stubbornly at £2.98 this week.
    Need enough freezer space!

    I've been out tonight at friends for dinner. Most lovely meal and wonderful company. Took a bottle of the Garnarcha and its OK, pretty easy to drink.
    Just caught up but off to bed now. Goodnight everyone x

    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!

    Bitten the bullet sonwe have somewhere to play next weekend.
    Especially for the late night music that is so enjoyed.
    The aptly named Elite Emergencies can be found on fb.
    Couldn't work out how to make a group page so this is best I can do.

    This page will be deleted on mondqy 9th and will not be a new spin off which ostracize's members. Everyone very welcome. Trolling will be deleted.

    Please sign up in advance of the big switch off. Then we can just smoothly move accross on friday for a weekend of fun hearing about DM's holiday;)

    If any one has trouble finding it it was done from my van twist fb account.

    . I do think a chaise lounge is a good description of you though. Stylish yet comfortable and laid back :)

    Onto your £20.42 of non-comparables (but check a.com!), I've got you £19.85 of T spend which should get you a £9.25 PP:

    Heinz Chopped Tomatoes in Tomato Juice (4x400g)£2.00 £1.00
    Dole Tropical Gold Pineapple Slices in Juice (567g)90p 50p
    Cif Floor Cleaner & All Purpose Cleaner - Ocean (1L)£2.00 £1.00
    Cif Camomile Wood Floor Cleaner (1L)£2.00 £1.00
    Tesco Antiseptic Disinfectant Liquid (500ml)£1.00 85p
    Tesco Celery89p 50p
    Tesco Spring Onions£1.00 50p
    2xTizer (2L)£1.04x2 Any 2 for £1.50
    Paxo Golden Breadcrumbs (227g)99p 75p
    Alpen Light Cherry Bakewell Bars (5x19g) (other versions are avail - check msm, and then a.com!) £1.99 £1.00
    2xL'Oreal Paris Men Expert Deodorant Spray - Fresh Extreme (150ml) (other versions avail, as above)£2.50x2 £1.00x2

    You can, of course, instead, buy more than one of the above comparables (where not going vs an A multibuy) and fill your basket that way - e.g. more of the Heinz Tomato multipacks (but careful - not all As stock them and do we have price confirmation on T PP that they are comparing)?

    I'm sure people can do better than this (i.e. and get full £10 PP, without going over, as well as every comparable item to be cheapest, by far more than 10%, in A and to represent good value in itself at A's price).
