Love it:T:T.
If I may say so, I rather like being down there. Never stops digging.
Anyway, I'm the one doing all the hard work:D:D. (So there:p.):rotfl:
:hello: I'm back from Mr A's. It's getting more difficult shopping in A for me, the way I've been doing it trying always to get the very best price on everything. (I'm probably in my comfort zone however: keeping it more complex:rotfl:.)
The problem is that virtually every item that I'd buy is not 10% cheaper than one or another rival. So I can't just get rid of an APG and not replace with another, except by losing the 10%, and then I'm having to buy eight different items and with having to avoid buying what I've already got enough of.
The other problem is I'm doing too well:eek:. Popped in at the supermarket on the way - intending to do Avs S shopping - but they had no W/T Ham:(. As that was a major item in my original shopping, I quickly changed over to doing Avs T impromptu (as Iceberg Lettuce offer at T due to go pretty soon) - managed to find the New Pots & Butter though (I bet only for you to tell me they no longer work:o). Well I had another exact 8 items:eek:. I only took a couple of small APGs with me, and the bill came to quite low. The APGs nearly covered my whole shop (not planned that way) and left me a couple of pence to pay. I tried to use a GC but couldn't where to swipe it on the SS (due to my autism again no doubt). Oh well - it was easier then to use a couple of pence of real money, even though I'm not spending much off my Xmas GCs (with the extra bonus amount added earlier). Last time I went to use them, with my APGs, the bill was fully paid for by the APGs:rotfl::rotfl:.
I went onto the other A tonight for the Ham (and other items). Another quite low spend. Doing too well:D. Did the vs S shopping - heard a woman customer at one of the aisles say that some fresh meat she had in her hands was "not as cheap as Sainsbury's". To which I thought, if that's true, you ought to stick it on my shopping and we'll claim the APG.:rotfl: Store didn't have the SP Rubber Gloves that it should (in my view:)) have. It's not easy going round and with little else to want to buy and having my mind telling me (on the SP Raspberry Sponge) - "that's versus T, *not* versus S". Lol - I could have put it on my Avs S shopping - would only have lost 5 or 6 pence - and got the eight items more easily but, oh no, I had to find something to put on there (and of course SP Sponge far cheaper on whoopsies than even 10% off T's price, so why even buy on APG at all?). It's getting difficult finding items that I haven't already got enough of, that haven't been cheaper vs someone else at some time earlier or cheaper with glitches than the price they would now be vs S, or vs T or M or whoever.
Then I got home and found my family had used the last item that I'd not put on my Avs T shopping and T's offer going soon:rotfl::rotfl:. Hardly worth buying another 8 items just for 10% off on that, so we'll now do without!!
Ok then... Lol it was my predictive text . You would be surprised to see what it comes up with sometimes.0 -
