    Good morning all.

    Off on a 1p hunt today, though doubt if I will find anything. Last time I saw the MP3 players in mine they were yellow stickered for £3 :eek: I was looking at them then someone came up and grabbed a couple, they reckoned they were a good price :eek: Still, might find something hiding somewhere, have a nice quiet out of the way SS till to use if I do :D

    It's funny what people do and don't consider a bargain

    When I was filling my basket with 1p choc baubles another customer was shaking her head at me

    She tutted "You know they're only 30p because they'll be out of date in a couple of days?"

    I said "Actually, they're only 1p and they're good til June!"

    I expected her to take some for herself but she didn't believe me. She though I was being cheeky :eek: Me! Can you believe that? :rotfl:

    They've been £1 for ages I asked other day as one day there show as £1 then £2.20 , no one answer so I threw them in with liquid wash to see in store price. so I take it there due To go up In price I deffo payed £1. Going asda on my break so I'll buy and see if compare..
    Same as radox hand wash these go between 90p I think and 1.90 online every few day so I'm going check in store price.
