    Thanks very much off to asda tommorow will get mullers as fillers of also comparing, just running out and have a couple of APG to kill.

    Wonder what the exp. dates are on Ferrero? Not that that matters, won't last me that long.

    Expiry date 27/09/14 on mine.
    The mullers will only compare if you include the glitchy one in the 10 for £3.You should get a gift card as well if discount doesn't come off.

    Thanks savvy, presume the glitchy one is the new flavour?
    We're just happy to have a home, a family and our health. Whatever else is just added and it fits. :)

    I've recently let go of most of my books :)

    I love Stephen King and wanted to collect his books, in paperback to read then hardback to look nice on the shelf until DD is old enough to read and appreciate them :o Therefore I had at least 2 of each novel, sometimes more as I'd visit a charity store and forget ones that I'd already bought...

    I thought I'd regret it because I love the feel of a real book and have no wish to own a kindle or suchlike device but I don't. And I'm starting to accept that by the time DD is old enough to read them they probably wont even be printing paper books any more :( So, with sadness I gave them to mam for the boot sale, hope someone who still likes books will get some joy from them.

    I have about 30 or more of his books, and I also have a signed first edition of Lisey's Story :D I went up to Oxford Street and queued up at 6 in the morning for several hours but it was worth it :D

    I can't let go of my real books, I have an e-reader that I use for reading normally, but when we go on holiday I take real books because I love the smell and feel of them and holidays are for relaxing.
    What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare

    It was bought as a gift....but I had a look at it before I gave it:cool: and I would have loved to have received it.:)
    Thanks, am very tempted. Unfortunately it is still over £10 and none of the e-libraries I am a member of stock it. Will keep price-checking :)
    You won't regret it, love my soup maker (also Morphy Richards). In fact I used it so much I burned the first one out (under warranty), but Amazon were very good and sent a new one out without me even returning the old one. So we have kept the old one, pretty sure the top part of it is OK as it was the bottom part that went.
    Looking forward to it arriving, am loving all the soup talk tonight :beer:

    I keep the books that mean something to me, including a couple of SK ones I read as a teenager (needful things and the Tommyknockers, read them both several times).

    I do have an ereader which has led me to discover books I might not have otherwise read, and find it more convenient for travelling as I can read a book in a couple of days quite easily. Means I don't need to lug half a dozen books on holiday, or ration myself to x amount of pages a day

    I've just given a load of books I bought through a savings club at primary school back to the same club that is still going, some of those books then were a good 10-15 years old so it's nice to know that they're still going to be enjoyed by another generation.

    I suppose you log onto your account and then do your purchase online but I still don't see this info relates to your card.
    And as you say you can also buy instore but no one ever asks for your card to scan it.
    I will have a play tomorrow to see if I can make any sense of it.
    Also how any purchases do you need to need to qualify .....

    Emmap and mhoc - you both make very interesting observations. I hadn't thought of any of these. How do they know if you have paid cash instore? Would they ask for your card? I haven't actually bought anything since our home store opened but have done in the past.

  • Just a heads up for the glitch finders really..

    Over the coming days and weeks, please keep an eye on what happens with the bottles of coke and all it's variants. It looks like the size of bottles is changing and while the various supermarkets make up their minds what they are going to stock, the potential is there for us to have a bit of fun.:j

    To give you an idea, if you look on msm now for A, you will see that they only sell 1.25l bottles, no 1.5, 1.75 or 2l bottles. A.com will tell you that they sell 1.75l bottles and 2l bottles of Diet and Diet Caffeine Free.

    Again, look at msm and Tesco sell nothing bigger than a 1.25l bottle. Look on T.com and they also appear to be downsizing to 1.75l bottles.

    Keep looking and I'm sure we will be able to take advantage of these changes at some stage over the next few weeks.:):)
