    Re Sainsbobs - when I realised my shop was going to be about a tenner there today I decided to also get a top ( sadly it does not fit :D) to take it over £20. I just as Sainsburys own brand sausage, potatoes, milk and peas etc but I also had some iced coffee which is now £1.29 in sainsbobs, no multi buy.
    This gave me a little BM as it compared against Tescos £1 :T
    I also got a conditional spend £2 wys £20 - ideal for the clothing sale due to start on Tues - and I've got a gift card to use up.

    I know someone that smoked 60 a day:eek::eek: gave up just like that on champix.
    My pap also gave up a 50-60 day habit but just went cold turkey, he used to light one off the other :eek::eek:

    I did the same. Started smoking at 13/14 and was on 40 a day by the time I was 29. Psyched myself up from Sept to quit on New Years Eve. Went cold turkey and obtained a huge whiskey bottle (like the ones you used to see on bars in pubs) and used to put the proceeds of my daily spend in the bottle which spurred me on to keep going.

    After 7 months I had enough to take me to Hawaii and haven't looked back since......That was 18 years ago.......Disgusting habit! I know, us reformed ones are the worst and it's very true.

    :j Yey! Saw it!
    I was getting convinced that they turned the lights out every time they passed my house! It seemed so much bigger and brighter than last time I saw it, and it is still semi-daylight, which made it even more special!! Thanks for the reminder Zippt :beer:

    Is it going over again tonight?
