    Morning everyone :)

    If your T store doesn't stock the Anchor cheese, you could go for the Seriously Strong instead which is bogof at T and I think it is nicer - the Seriously Vintage is quite good. Not quite as cheap for a C & C because there is no £1 moc, but 2 of these plus 3 of the little Danio's and the free porridge comes to £2.93 with free C & C.

    I think the Seriously Strong could be added to a T vs S shop (Nouvelle?) as this one is £2.50 each at the moment (but not the other varieties?) - not tested yet, but hope to pop out later.

    Worth having a play online with any dairy items bogof that you might want - eg Muller 6 packs. With the free C & C there are lots of great bargains.

    No NSDs for me - I am looooooooving shopping atm. Even grocery shopping is fab. Swapped a load of Disney DVDs this week for Despicable me, Eddie Izzard and some others so getting lots of Xmas pressies sorted.

    Hope all are well and enjoying advent xx
