    Same results as getting a mixed lot, but you'd need more fillers. I did 3 shops earlier and had 3 regular, 2 diet, 2 zero, 2 caffeine free in each. Less fillers needed because I mixed them up :money:

    So should I do a coke C&C for tomorrow? What do you reckon?

    Thank you to everyone whose advice has helped me in my desperate quest to make ends meet. x

    EDIT-Back on the quest, I've been away too long!

    Similar kind of time to me. My sada closes at 10 so probably one stab at it before it gets fixed tomorrow. How many to get? :think:

    I hope we fare better than last time. Fingers crossed for bargaingeek's test shop :beer:
    Mine is 24 hours so I'm ok that way, it'll just be whether I can be bothered to get my backside up and out! Good luck bargaingeek, we'll be waiting with bated breath! :beer:

    Is yours to decide, this is your life.

    You're not getting it :rotfl:

    9 coke
    9 diet
    9 zero
    9 cherry
    9 caffeine free
    9 citrus zest
    A flump
    A banana

    The point being you could get more than 9. (But would be a wee but daft to do so)

    Apg might compare max 10 of one thing but you could still get. 10 regular /2 diet for example for total of. 12. Or 10 + 5 etc

    Eta you could get

    10 regular
    10 diet
    10 zero
    10 cherry
    10 caffeine free
    10 citrus zest
    A flump
    A banana

    If you want to get trouted :rotfl:

    Someone on here mentioned the other day about possibly being able to use the fragrance shop £10 off online even though it says instore....has anyone done this please?

    Cheers m'dears


    It was me. not done it this time but last time we had the offer it was found that the code for store was accepted in the online codes box.
    Trouble is if it doesn't work you have lost your code as gets timed out.
    Once I get through advents I will have a go as don't mind wasting my code as not using it anyway.

    . I do think a chaise lounge is a good description of you though. Stylish yet comfortable and laid back :)

    May the odds be ever in your favour;)

  • Oh, forgot to say DO NOT BUY THE COKE ZERO CHERRY!! One slipped in my trolley by mistake and it doesn't compare anywhere and mucks up the apg a wee bit.

    Dear heavens - I ventured under the stairs tonight to dig out the Christmas wrapping paper :eek::eek: I have 43 rolls :eek: & 2 boxes of folded from Littlewoods catalogue :o

    Stop me buying it please & Christmas cards in the sales. I have found 15 full boxes :o

    Then I went to get the Christmas presents to wrap & somehow or other I've ended up searching for a new leather Kipling bag I own... Turned house upside down but can I find it? :(:(

    But found a Birds Eye Clarence bear, a blue light up twiggy thing, those rechargeable batteries charger thingies from Ts.
    A t shirt with Temple Balls on it :o
    An Airfix model to make of the Titanic

    But no bag :( where is it?

    Bag isn't stored inside your Kipling suitcase is it ? ;)
