    A new thread and already 20 pages - is there a big glitch on, not shopped properly in over a week so no hope of ever catching up.

    my week was dreadful so I need virtual hugs if anyone has spares :)

    Eldest child has worked frantically for weeks for interviews for a new work placement - 2 days notice to do a presentation, group interview and then a trip to London. Then she got an email from her boss, all new work placements canceled - she is devastated. It would have meant an extra £4 grand a year and they could have started saving to get married and a house deposit :(

    Eldest son went off on his tour on Thursday, 6 months without leave, very miserable to see him go but at least he seems to have good wi fi so we have skyped. Counting the days already.


    Worst of all my Dad went into hospital for a weeks investigation, he looked so much better this week, fully awake, eye contact, listening, taking notice and taking part in conversations onWednesday and Thursday. But On Sunday morning he had his porridge and pills and then his breathing changed and he just slipped away before any of us could reach the hospital. So we have a funeral to go to on Tuesday.

    Anyway I am trying to regain something like normality, eldest daughter was home for a few days, youngest son home this weekend so at least we have not been on our own.

    Sleep seems to the hardest thing to tackle at the moment.

    next week will be better I hope.

    Aww sorry for your loss mhoc..xx

    and that's just wishing happy birthday. :rotfl:

    seriously it does take quite a bit of reading even when its being spelt out for you to grasp what it is we do. A friend of mine says show me how you save all that money but its not that simple is it ?

    I remember telling my mum and giving her coupons for the comfort, she walks straight into teskies and asks where the 25p comfort is :eek::eek::eek: Another time I took her couponing she grabs a manager and says my daughter saved me a fortune in here today with coupons and you should see her beer pile !!

    Never again never ever ever ever again am I taking her shopping

    No NO noooooo :eek:

    I think we have come along way in working out the flaws in the systems etc ;) and as you say when you try to explain to someone else it sounds very convoluted but as we've learnt as we've gone along its easy peasy for us lot.:D

    Hugs mhoc. I'm thinking of you xx
    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    I haven't seen them in store. I had been watching these for about four weeks and clicked on the email thing where they send you an email when it comes back in stock. So hopefully they might come back in stock again so worth clicking on the stock alert :)

    Tea and Coffee

    ASDA Smartprice Tea Bags (80)
    27p 27p (also vs T as at 23/8)
    ASDA Smartprice Instant Coffee (100g)
    47p 47p (also vs T as at 6/9)
    Kenco 2 in 1 Smooth White Coffee (140g)/3 in 1 Smooth White Coffee (200g)
    £2.28 £1.50 (until 13/10) (vs M) But, even on the heavier 3 in 1, you'd be attempting to compare to 75p/100g as opposed to 66.1p/100g on the Nescafe 3 in 1s that was available last week
    Kenco Decaff. or Smooth Eco Refill (150g)
    £4.38 £3.00 (until 13/10) (also vs T until 6/10)
    Nescafe Original Decaff. Jar (200g)
    £4.00 £4.00 (until 13/10) (also vs T until 24/9, i.e. 23/9)
    Nescafe Gold Blend Refill (300g)
    £7.60 £6.00 (until 13/10) (vs M) If it works vs M, it's 10% off £2/100g - although Nescafes/GBs do go down to £1.67/kg in A (and occasionally in M, non-Gold Blend so far)
    Nescafe Cafe Menu 10s - Cappuccino Unsweetened (180g)/Cappuccino (180g)/Cappuccino Decaff (160g)/Cappuccino Strong (145g)
    £2.00 £1.49 (until 13/10) (vs M)
    ASDA Smartprice Hot Chocolate Drink (400g)
    48p 48p (vs M)

    Sweeteners

    Hermasetas Mini Sweeteners (1200)
    £2.78 £2.50 (until 10/11) (vs M)

    Long Life Milk etc.

    ASDA Smartprice UHT Skimmed Milk (1L)
    53p 53p (also vs T as at 26/8 and S as at 26/8)
    ASDA Smartprice Unsweetened Soya (1L)

    ASDA Smartprice Chocolate & Nut or Strawberry & Yogurt Muesli Bars (6x23g)
    74p 81.047619...p (vs M only)
    Kellogg's Rice Krispies Squares - Rocky Road/Honeycomb/Totally Chocolately/Totally Chocolately Caramel/Totally Chocolately Mint
    £1.98 99p (until 13/10) (vs M)
    [Strike]Kellogg's Special K Biscuit Moments Chocolate/Blueberry/Strawberry (5x25g)
    £1.00 99p (until 13/10) (vs M)[/Strike][Strike]
    Kellogg's Special K Peach & Apricot/Red Berry (5x23g)
    £1.00 99p (until 13/10) (vs M)
    Kellogg's Special K Bliss Mint & Chocolate (5x22g)
    £1.00 99p (until 13/10) (vs M)[/Strike]
    I think it's better to get the Special K Double Milk Chocolate in M at 99p, as that's a 6 pack and works out cheaper, even without the 10%, than the 5 pack ones with it.

    Fresh Pasta etc.

    ASDA Smartprice Lasagne Sheets 250g
    32p 32p (also vs T as at 26/8)

    Herbs & Spices etc.

    ASDA Smartprice Dried Mixed Herbs (18g)
    25p 25p (vs M only) But A was 19p four months ago, it's making the M list just to try to mitigate the price incr. compared to then.

    Rice

    [Strike]ASDA Smartprice Long Grain Rice 1kg
    40p 40p (also vs T as at 17/8 and S as at 17/8)[/Strike] Crossed due to 2kg version in S working out cheaper (some weeks ago)
    Tilda Steamed Basmati Rice (250g) - Brown/Egg Fried/Pure/Mushroom/Lime & Coriander
    £1.00 79p (until 13/10) (vs M) Debating whether to put on list or leave off - nowhere near as good priced as 1kg SP ones. But, then again, I do have Uncle Ben's on here from time to time don't I? Even though they are 250g packet ones. As it's Basmati and not Long Grain, I've decided to include the above items.
