    You know to buy fillers right? Items that are the same price in Morries, cheaper in Morries or not sold in Morries?

    I think you may have found another matching item but your PP was on Pizza as that was cheapest overall shop - where does the chinese chicken match against please on the PP (£6/£4.70 for 2)? Not as big a saving but a saving nonetheless for anyone looking for a balanced/variation on their ready meal diet ;)

    I think the first one is As so could be put with Jalfrezi or Korma if anyone wanted a different curry? Can someone confirm please?

    Many thanks

    that's against A* ;)

    You could get 2 of those and 2 spring rolls for £2.30 PP/£3.70 cost.

    Or 1 chinese curry and either 1 jalfezi/korma with 2 spring rolls for £3.15 PP/£2.85 cost




    *The order of comparisons on PP results page goes TASM (I just think of Tassimo to remember it ;))

    Oh I don't think I have ... Err... How do I update the coupon print software hahaha

    ... and remember 10 different items for Ts to get a PP (8 for As).

    For the pizza and samosas to maximise your PP it is best getting 2 pizzas and 2 samosas plus fillers (as 4 plus fillers takes you over £10 PP cap which means you lose some of you PP ... so end up paying £1 per BNI which I suppose you could live with ...). That said, it depends on whether you are getting fillers for fillings sake (flumps etc!) or items you would be buying anyway.

    I have absolutely no recollection of how I did it :o

    Probably easiest to go to control panel and uninstall. Then when you go to print a coupon it will prompt installation

    I thought of that but mum is like Mary poppins, packs everything but the kitchen sink in!!! I very much doubt she'll be able to stick to her 15kg allowance tbh so her 10kg hand luggage will be maximised for herself. I weighed my bag empty to see how light I can go - and that was 4kg already!! Think i need a Primark shopping outing for a cheap/v. light bag. Failing that, I take a large carrier bag :rotfl::D

    I am NOT paying nearly £100 to take my luggage (even though it was a super cheap holiday)

    We have recently returned from a month away, and had packed everything, weighed perfectly so no extra charges. But on the three airlines we flow with our hand luggage was never weighed. After the first flight ended up taking the majority of our things in our hand luggage and was giving other passengers advice in the que! :T:T

    ps the sports holdalls are great as they weigh next to nothing.
