    Had fun with the scanner today

    Thanks QoC for the ketchup napkins. Scanned at 5p ideal for BBQs

    Small radio was 25p

    This was the only Christmas wrapping paper scanning at 4p. The rest were at 50p
    These were the only Christmas napkins scanning at 5p



    When I took the scanner back the SA told me that I cannot use the scanner to check prices, I must use it to complete my purchase:D

    My soup shop failed. I couldn't find enough tins:D

    So got 9 cans of soup and a meal deal. It wasn't till I was putting it through SS that I noticed the end of aisle promotion was all soup:o

    So one meal deal and 9 tins of soup for £5.10

    Wish I had a couple of hours to spare and do a "savvy" in M&S with a clipboard. I swear we are just scratching the surface if this glitch

    Afternoon:)had a very lazy NSD Sunday after my day in London yesterday.Thoroughly enjoyed the show and we were met by my Friends Family as we came out of the Theatre and taken to the Giraffe Restaurant nearby and treated to a nice meal and drinks:T:T



    I shall be off to T's tomorrow searching out a few little bargains seems to me that T's are constantly clearing their stockrooms and filling up the shelves all to our advantage;);)especially when it is things you or Friends and family can utilize
    Hugs to all who just need a little comforting for one reason or another x

    Just got back from T's. Got a few woopsies then walked past the tech department when I spied 3 cages full of dvd's, 3ds stuff, wii remotes and loads of other stuff, so I asked the tech guy if that was the reduced stuff? yes it was, but they're not putting it out until tomorrow. but I got a couple of wii remotes £1.25 each, 4 3ds skylander stylus's 25p each a 3ds angry birds 11pc protection pack £1.25 and some other 3ds protection pack 25p :D

    Was having a word with him about the cheap dvd's and he told me that of sometime this summer, T's will be doing away with all dvd's cd's except for the top 20 because they are going to be using a system which lets you download on an ultra violet system!!!

    This....

    Also, when walking back I had to go through a bit of wooded area and in the middle is a bin and in it was a vacuum cleaner!! who the hell takes a vacuum into the middle of some woods to put it in a bin?? How bizarre. Lol

    Mad that they're still finding more stuff in warehouses to put out.

    Found a few bits in Yate today, 2 x bad street SUV, 2 x hello kitty skates and pads. Annoyingly saw a chap walking round with a basket of led bulbs, so missed out on them.

    Also popped over to Bradley Stoke, the pile of dumped items by the upstairs scanner was ridiculous. Strange thing though, on looking at the pile of dumped stuff I found a couple of cheap blurays amongst it all.

    The wiki remotes at 1.25 are a crazy price, I thought they were a bargain at £10 a couple of weeks ago!

    So pleased you feel :j:j QoC. You are an:A.

    Sounds like you gave scamps a much needed boost:T

    My disappointment of the day was the SA in T not accepting my £7 wys £50 as I had included a £20 giftcards.

    My shopping came to over £40:eek: I've never paid that much for a shop in yonks.

    Felix cat food compared £4.88 in T to 2 for £6 in S so I bought 4 and some Activia 8 packs to get a £10 PP

    As I was a woman scorned I went and used my £7 wys on a pair of skull candy head phones which went through at £80 even though the SEL was £69.
    I took a photo of the SEL and waited for customer service to check it out. She came back and said that the price was right at £80. I asked her to walk back with me where a man from the electrical dept was switching the prices. I commented that that was a bit naughty. Got DD of £22.

    If only I'd got my £7 off wys:). I would have been on my way home:)
