    Back from lurkdom due to night shifts and RL.:o Sorry for the lack of thanks everyone, but have only been skimming and skipping:o
    Hope you are all well, and congrats for any birthdays, celebrations or good news that I've missed. Also hugs for anyone going through a bad time.

    Very little shopping done recently, due to being poorly, and a decided lack of space and inclination. I've got coupons to use, including the meal deal ones, thanks to VT( thanks hun x), some Blossom Hill, Campbells, Rustlers etc. No chefs coupons for me, I did the necessary, but they never arrived, and was too late for the Walkers:(
    I have loads of the T's coupons from the mag, and the meal deal ones so if anyone hasn't been able to find them, I'm happy to share from my recycling bin;)

    Anyone looking for a mirror, possibly to admire their new shape after 5:2ing for a while :p, there are some good deals in the Argos sale

    DH is off out with his camera, and I have a couple of his pics for you. Hope you like them

    1 x Richmond Irish Recipe Thick Sausages (12 per pack ... £3.50 £1.75

    A v M today from a womble

    I bought some myself yesterday

    I know. And, at 681g, they work out as equivalent to £1.16 for Morries for 454g. APG takes away about 11 or 12p = just over £1 for 454g of sausages (slightly above my £1 for 454g normal but still just about considered okay*). Even if I try for the Lidl ones when they go down to 74p.:D

    *You can see - it is hard work, sometimes, trying to get me to put something into my list! The Boursin cheese posted this afternoon has just about made it! It was on the borderline for me but, on balance, I've decided it should go in - on the basis that msm (perhaps incorrectly) is showing T and the others as only going down to £1.50 on it. Also of course few, if any, cheeses beat the Cathedral Citys on glitch days! I've let the Boursin go in though - it's not too bad for £1.12-10%. And it does have Garlic & Herbs, which the Cathedral City doesn't, so that might be a significant differing factor! Not everything will, or can, go in - for one, if I start putting every item that's not 10% cheaper, we'd end up with lots of items on the list that weren't very good value (perhaps A, T, S and W all on full price on branded items but where prices are already matching) and that would then rather overshadow the good value items (that I aim the list to consist of).

    Okay, I am the first to admit this hurts my head. So would the Hardys shiraz also work out at 34p a bottle?
    It is on 2 for £3
    Compares to adsa at £8?
    Many thanks, and even more thanks if anyone knows of any other red bottles that compare to Adsa, so I can but more than 6 (with fillers) :beer:




    Edit: Saw the use of the money off coupons, so in answer to my question, no it wont, it would work out at (about) 84p a bottle, not as great. (disclaimer, I could be totally wrong, and usually am!)
