    For anyone who's not done the freebies on checkoutsmart yet they are well worth doing. I only shopped at lunchtime today and they have processed my receipt already :j
    Free birds eye inspirations - fish and chicken
    And free walls viennetta
    Also cashback is available on lettuce and cucumber
    £7.39 back in total and the birds eye have a try me free offer in the boxes as well :j:j:D

    I need to go and sit in the naughty corner and hang my head in shame:(

    I decided to do 2 cereal shops... Had a good detailed hand written list (msl doesn't work in my @) set off, little man fell asleep so had to resort to a basket..whilst pushing the pushchair ..not easy when your basket is already full with cereal... Got my s -wheat then had a quick look at my list for fillers . Paid put in car. Went back in looked at my list for my v t shop :eek::mad: I bought my m fillers with my sw:mad::eek:

    What a doughnut!!!:rotfl:

    I'm not having a good week, failed chicken in t, failed toms in @. Now probably a failed sw shop...
    I think I will stay away from a supermarket for a while:)
    bless you, we've all done it :o
