It's D-Day-1 STOPTOBER. Here's my strategy.
---> empty the house of any booze.
---> give wife key to secure shed (padlocked) where I store booze and the big ladder to attic where I also store booze
---> don't buy booze
---> don't drink booze eg by going to pub
---> take exercise daily, target 1 hour minimum daily
---> swimming
---> walking
---> cycling
---> weigh myself daily and calculate BMI (should provide encouragement)
---> make determined effort to eat my 5 a day
---> skip a few meals or just have an Ainsley soup (c.120 calories and filling)
---> count off the days remaining and the days succeeded
---> be honest
---> drive everybody here mad with telling them how well I'm doing
---> provide encouragement to other STOPTOBEREES especially smokers as that is probably harder to stop
---> go to Dr for annual health MOT round about 20th October
---> clap myself on the back every day and be really irritating:beer:

HTH!!
Just been looking at Dettol E45 handwash as missed out on glitch but atm they are A's £2.50 each (but 2 for £3) and S's £1.25 each. If you buy in targetted shop net cost will be £1.13 if you buy one BUT if they will take moc it will be 13p.0 -

T.BIG NIGHT IN INDIAN CKN KORMA & RICE 450G
- £12.00 † £9.60 n/a £8.00 4x
T.BIG NIGHT IN CHINESE 6 MINI VEG ROLLS 100G
- £6.00 † £4.00 n/a n/a
I THINK that you'd be better off trying to compare to Morrisons and buying the veg. samosas with the Korma. If memory serves me the Kormas give £1 PP and each Samosa either 50p or 75p???
Anyone got a womble they can check on please?0 -

Sorry to quote myself but should also give PP in a T v S shop but you can buy more than one but obviously won't get the extra 10% (I do hope I am making sense here) - hth.

Morning all. Liking the strategy, Squillion, I know I ought to join you but I'm a weak willed woman and I like my wine. We'll see. There was a very interesting article I read recently about a woman who gave up alcohol for a month and it did wonders for her skin and her general appearance. Going for a week would be a real achievement for me.Hope is not a strategy.0

this has probably already mentioned but on MSL today most items are buyany 2 and get £2 cashback so works out a few free items:):)
Alternatively, buy the items, submit the receipts to MSL, hear nothing despite repeated emails via outlook/facebook/MSM website, and end up paying full price after all :mad:0
