    Mortgage debt 45,000. Thank you all for your help so far in helping me save to buy the house. I could not have done this without all your help.

    Hi there - phone worse than ever, line gone totally dead, yet internet available, for about five minutes, once an hour:(:(. So it's hello and goodbye!:rotfl:

    Not a bad comp. - didn't lose out on any item that compared, but I wouldn't buy any of this stuff:D.

    Just goes to show - I thought previous receipt would give a voucher opp. and this one wouldn't. Instead, got caught by them buying Pepsi 2L a few days too late, again. I manage to find those people that buy everything on offer at Mr M, the week after all the prices have shot back up.

    Anyway -

    items (8 different) on your bill qualify for comparisonASDALogoWhite.gif Morrisons

    1 x Surf Essential Oils Powder Tropical Lily & Ylang Y...£4.00£4.00
    2 x Colman's Spaghetti Bolognese Sauce Mix (44g)£1.00£1.00
    Comparison total (compared products only)£10.96£11.08

    The Surf's a 25 wash, so I wouldn't go for vs £4 on that. On second thoughts, I might sort of go for the Spring Greens occasionally. (But not the Sprouts after packs before Christmas much cheaper elsewhere. And the Spinach - there was 300g Spinach a long time ago at £1 in S, so 160g now... no thanks!:p:rotfl:)

    Goodnight!:):)

    I ate my free Nakd bar yesterday (thanks OP ... was it you, tom?) and .... bleurgh! ... I think I paid too much - I wouldn't scratch me bum with them:) My stomach was saying to me, "What have I ever done to you, that you treat me like this?".
    That's very polite compared with what my Mum said about them when I got her one, I wont say how she described the choc orange one close to something you might find in a messy park! If I get any vouchers again I will have to recycle them I think or food bank but not sure if I can be that cruel

    I must be weird as I really like those Nakd bars, the choc orange one is my favourite lol and I have even bought them with real money!! :eek:
    The same company also make Trek bars and I really like those too!

    I never eat milk chocolate so maybe my taste buds have changed lol! :rotfl:

    Edit: Thrifty, if you do have more coupons or actual Nakd bars, please do donate them to a food bank as someone with coeliac disease or lactose intolerance might be really grateful for them as gluten & dairy free treats are really expensive. x

    I had that recently and lost at least 10 pounds and had it for nearly a week. It was proper diarrhoea too. It wasn t staying in my body long enough to change to the usual brown and smell .

    Hope you are better now.

    Did they find out what caused it?
