    Finally got to Tescos WITH my vouchers this time!
    Couldn't maximise the PP as one of the Youngs fish was nowhere to be seen and I don't think the Spring rolls are very nice - last 2 we had tasted 'soapy'! YUCK!
    Couldn't get a signal in our T's at all so couldn't use phone to look at comparisons - so much for the free internet!

    I used a £3 off £20 a £10 PP and got a £9 PP back + £3.50MSL + another £3 off £20 spend. :)
    Total shop in cash spent after the above & taking into acc loss of £1 on PP =£10.37 :)

    Actually that's wrong - after MSL cashback I spent just £6.87 - even better! Not counting the £3 off £20 at all - that just replaces the one I spent!

    I'm annoyed I didn't check that I'd picked up 2x black pepper basa, I took them from the same shelf.:(

    Thinking about the steam cleaner- I so DON'T need one but thinking bout it anyways

    My reservation (just in case ;) ) says order in for collection Monday to Wednesday next week- what do we think the likelihood is of it being a vax?

    Estate agent wanted intially to negotiate on it more but we felt the offer was strong enough.

    I had literally just told the shop I was done and the estate agent called.

    13 days since it went up and five viewers. not bad going.

    Although one of the viewers from last night said it needed too much done !!! Oh dear goodness what a lie. Seriously even the home report and survey guy said it was spotless. Some folk eh ?

    But its done , short of missives being concluded etc.

    Phew ! x
