Ive taken to buying single dog food tins as fillers. I just get a few different varieties and flavours. My kids don't eat the sweets. I know that's no good to anyone who hasn't got a dog but might be an idea for someone

No dog here I would love one but I work full time so it wouldn't be fair. I do usually have a list of 10-12 things that I need for fillers but today was a bit last minute

Good idea think I will start to do this as we have far too many sweets all the time, never bought sweets before I started glitching.

I am going to take the sweets into school for the class when it's my girls birthday next month. Save me buying some more x

I think getting tins as fillers is a great idea but flumps are lighter :rotfl:

Easier on the arms when you're lugging things on a bus

I always buy soap, tins of fruit or veg and plain biscuits. I found myself buying a tin of potatoes the other day and couldn't believe I'd actually bought that, but I just ran out of ideas.

Sweets are no good as DD on a diet and DS doesn't like choc.

The packets of fruit mentioned earlier is a good idea ( thanks to OP), especially as DD watching her food intake. I've been buy melon, pineapple etc and preparing them in tubs in the fridge to help her a little so these little bags will be great to take to work with her.

many thanks to the OP about half price meat in mr.t's found a nice £25 pound top rump today :beer::beer:
got loads of cat food and used yesterdays pp's and now have a nice pile for next time

then went to mr a's, liberte lemon work, got 1 lemon, 1 blueberry and that was ok as was 1 lemon and 1 strawberry. kids love frubes so filled up the freezer with them as no room in the fridge, also got crackers, carver ham, shape yogurts, counter cod, grated cheese and a load of Robinsons :T:T

The normal Frubes freeze well so should be fine.

We have "a few" in there at the moment.

Me and Mrs Anon have different views - I stock up and think it will last us over time, she gives Little Anons two at a time as we have "a few" in the fridge and freezer :mad:.

These should be good for DD as well...as a snack on her diet!

For some reason I always buy a tin of kidney beans as a filler.

It's my good luck charm:)
