    Thanks savvy. I'm going to buy another pineapple to make more upside down cake next week :D (plus that camembert sounds really cheap, love it warmed with crusty bread and a chutney

    I was still checking some of the Aldi list to see if it was cheaper, but I think I'll leave that now to the thread! (Due to time.)

    I'll look at the pineapple though. Pineapple 74p - either that or the Whole Tastes one in A may be better (£2.00 vs £1.00 T as part of 2 for £3.00) if you can find a missing item. Standard Pineapple 75p in A (so just 1p cheaper in Aldi) - but depends what the sizes are (measuring tapes out A vs Aldi:rotfl::D). Or it's T Pineapple £1 vs A 75p, if the T one is bigger and if (big 'if') it compares to 75p for A.

    Question for you folks- my best friend is off to Florida soon *jealous face*

    Can she take her 3 year olds buggy without it affecting her luggage allowance? They're gonna be having sons mighty long days while they're away and are going to need to put her in her buggy at times

    I know they can take it on the plane but I don't know if it would be counted as part of her luggage allowance or not?

    TIA :)

    It's a few years since I needed to take a buggy anywhere but they never used to affect baggage allowance/ be counted as part of your luggage.

    I wouldn't have thought it would be counted as part of their allowance....[STRIKE]even Ryanair allow you to take 2 items of baby equipment FOC
    [/STRIKE] Edit: looks like they've changed this now although pushchairs are still ok to take foc

    Who are they flying with? It will probably say in the T&Cs somewhere :)

    It can vary depending on the airline but when we flew with virgin it does not count as part of the luggage allowance...I think if I remember correctly you can either drop it off at the large item area or keep it with you until just prior to boarding...but it may be wise to check with the airline


    Are they hiring a car?...travel seats are very much a requirement in the US and can be hired as part of the rental package without having to take your own
    frugal October...£41.82 of £40 food shopping spend for the 2 of us!

    I think it's classed as separate (i.e. not checked baggage and not within your luggage)

    Yep, if you want to take it on with you, they take it from you as you board the plane and you get it back the other end (unless it goes in the hold when being checked in.) But double check rules with the specific airliner
