Pfffft, read that and all I could think of was over inflated rrp :rotfl:
Surely she can't be 'saving' £2k a month if she isn't earning it in the first place.

I didn't notice any PP or APG vouchers in any of the photographs:eek:. Also says "She now no longer buys anything full price", which of course sometimes we originally do. Where are earth are RRPs generally charged though? I don't treat it as a 'saving' by comparing to those!:rotfl: It's a bit like the "mbuy savings" on receipts - based on expensive individual prices which we don't actually pay. For example, if something is 89p individually or any 2 for £1, I treat that as being normal price 50p each for two and that's the price I pay, rather than it being any saving on 89p x2.

As far as I'm concerned any mbuy "savings" come afterwards, with anything that glitches on APG!:rotfl: (Those are 'savings', in my view. On my approach - rather admirably:D - it's not a saving unless it glitches:rotfl::rotfl:.)

And...just a single Heinz Beanz can in the bottom photo?:eek:

I do agree with this though: "...People are slaves to brands when in reality cheaper products are identical." (Well, in fact, pedantically, they're not absolutely "identical" - little differences may exist so no-one can truthfully say they are - but the differences to me are so unnoticeable to my tastes that the cheaper products are equivalent and totally acceptable alternatives - so the main gist (ha ha:rotfl:) is right.)

Er...except that I'm just finishing now my pack of SP Crumpets bought before I moved on to some cheaper Kingsmill ones:rotfl:. (This time.)

But good luck to her... she's doing it her way; if it works for her, great.:):)

I'm just listening to zag's last link and I'm going to toodle up the stairs.

Night zag, you were part of it, good choons, calm restored before bedtime.

Have to get to bed as Mr TS has train to catch in the morning, so chauffeur duties for me, and I don't do early mornings well.

I don't know - depends where they're bought. I always treat the half ones, or portion ones, as halves - although they probably aren't. Yet "Whole" cucumbers come in different length to one another - I always pick the longest I can see:D. As they're whoopsie on this occasion though, I wouldn't put too much on this at the moment, as whatever size they were, it's made some 'saving'. Unless we want them to pay us to take cucumbers away or something:rotfl:.

Body shop skincare set, RRP: £42; Emma paid: £14 with money off coupons:eek:
How much do we pay for our glitchy equivalent sets?

Food for Emma, and her mum and dad, RRP: £330; Emma paid: £120
A bit misleading perhaps as it doesn't indicate the time period over which this was paid. How much are we paying for our food a month? I'd hazard some of us were on zero or at most £5 or £10 a week. If we aren't having "issues with meat prices" each week:rotfl: - if we are, then maybe sometimes minus figures!:D £120 (assume it's monthly - and it's lunar month on this occasion btw:p) vs £40? We saved £80 on what Emma pays!

Easter eggs RRP: £16:eek::eek:; Emma paid: £3 with coupons
We paid... some of us got paid to take them last year and, this year, maybe £3.40 but for 3. Did she get as much in weight?:think:

I was thinking about a juicer, but thought it would take all day. I might try to knock one up out of some wood and a car jack [/QUOTE]

A bottle jack would work fine there are loads of plans on the net.

I would take a look and knock up something that suits your needs it does not have to be very large if its for home use

you could use a piece of kitchen worktop

Ok, *bombshell* - I've been considering whether to give out some personal information about myself - some of you may have noticed that I've been here perhaps a little more than normal during the week or up later than normal sometimes (including now) - I'm still thinking about it ... but it's good news!!:D:D:D
