I have mentioned this before but the smart price tea or whatever it's called in Sains is a good strong cup of tea apparently and is only about 29/39 p a box bargain for tea drinkers me thinks

Used to drink PG Tips until I realised the price per bag! Tried a few of the cheap ones, Tesco was horrible, Lidl was OK then tried the Sainsbury one and settled on that, friends never notice the difference and it was only 27p per 80 bags last week

That's it now, you will become addicted and not do a single shop without getting something back on apg:rotfl: well done:)

Addicted is the word. As soon as we realised we'd made that mistake it's like "Quick! we need to get back there and make amends!"

Still early days yet and really interesting finding out all the things that will eventually add up to that perfect apg shop!

Couldn't spend that if I tried these days !

£110 every week for four weeks!!! Don't think they'll get many takers these days!

There are a number of deviants on this thread who have a secret habit of sniffing bits of their cat. Some love to breath in the soft furry bit between their cats ears....top of head. I am in the paw group where the scent is grassy....some might say earthy.

I often smile when I look at my big moggy paws and think of you

Yes, we were so pleased to spot the Lilly's and the Deans and originally had two green/blue ribbon, but then OH said look there's a different Lilly's so we got one of each. Lesson learned! They may look the same, but the barcodes tell a different story to the APG gods! The chips we actually needed and thought they were expensive at sada so that's why we got them.

But we are really pleased we tried it because we will know what to do from now on! :beer:

This is the best way to use APG I think. Price up stuff you normally buy but switch the brands eg fat free yogs Shape/Muller or Activia... Find the ones on offer elsewhere and buy them at best not on offer at A or at worst same offer as fillers. I don't go for all these 10p sweets as I wouldn't normally buy them so to me a waste of money. Safe, but would rather spend a little more and stock up on stuff we need. Depends how much you do APG shops I guess. If a serial (as opposed to cereal) apg'er I guess the sweets are a means to an end.

Good morning all.

Can I ask of any of you that have already had shingles - Did this talk about Shingles start you tingling and getting pain where you had shingles previously? OR am I just the only one?

Morning all. Eurgh re: drinking gherkin juice! hope those that you have a nice duvet day logie flo flo, am reading backwards so hope it's not shingles for you :eek:

Went to A and killed a few apgs... 78p to pay SA was impressed. I also used a swim nappy coupon (thanks nana babe) so £1 off my shopping. Also some Campbell's soups were rtc to 44p (used 20p mocs) and the ambrosia dream cream thing at 50p with 30p peekabke sticker from a while back.

Got home and saw DS outdoor school coat so had to rush back to school. Meeting OH for lunch later and taking some things back to M&s from the sale order. Plus my free caffe Nero voucher will be used so Ill prob be 'up' re spending today. :T

Thanks for the tip. That's what we will try to do next time!
