    You can but give it a whirl. It might work. Don't do 2 full weeks, do a few days and see if it makes a difference.

    Nope, wait a minute I could be wrong and lose a few pounds in weight...bonus!!

    Unfortunately your receipt didn't contain the minimum of 8 different items, of which at least
    1 must be comparable, required to be eligible for comparison on the ASDA Price Guarantee.
    Please try again after your next shop at ASDA.

    For Nerfy and DM

    Alternative ways to use a cucumber..

    CUCUMBER TIPS & TRICKS THAT YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS!!

    1. Cucumbers contain most of the vitamins you need every day, just one cucumber contains Vitamin B1, Vitamin B2, Vitamin B3, Vitamin B5, Vitamin B6, Folic Acid, Vitamin C, Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Potassium and Zinc.

    2.For a pick me up in the afternoon... Put down the caffeinated soda and pick up a cucumber. Cucumbers are a good source of B Vitamins and Carbohydrates that can provide that quick pick-me-up that can last for hours. Slice some and put in your water bottle.

    3. If you rub a cucumber slice along your bathroom mirror, it will eliminate the fog and provide a soothing, spa-like fragrance.

    4. Place a few slices of cucumber in a small pie tin and your garden will be free of pests all season long. The chemicals in the cucumber react with the aluminum to give off a scent undetectable to humans but drive garden pests crazy and make them flee the area.

    5. Looking for a fast and easy way to remove cellulite before going out or to the pool? Try rubbing a slice or two of cucumbers along your problem area for a few minutes, the phytochemical in the cucumber cause the collagen in your skin to tighten, firming up the outer layer and reducing the visibility of cellulite. Works great on wrinkles too!!!

    6. Want to avoid a hangover or terrible headache? Eat a few cucumber slices before going to bed and wake up refreshed and headache free.
    Cucumbers contain enough sugar, B vitamins and electrolytes to replenish essential nutrients the body lost, keeping everything in equilibrium, avoiding both a hangover and headache!

    7. Looking to fight off that afternoon or evening snacking binge? Cucumbers have been used for centuries by European trappers, traders and explorers for quick meals to thwart off starvation.

    8. Have an important meeting or job interview and you realize that you don’t have enough time to polish your shoes? Rub a freshly cut cucumber over the shoe, its chemicals will provide a quick and durable shine that not only looks great but also repels water.

    9. Out of WD 40 and need to fix a squeaky hinge? Take a cucumber slice and rub it along the problematic hinge, and voila, the squeak is gone!

    10. Stressed out and don’t have time for massage, facial or visit to the spa? Cut up an entire cucumber and place it in a boiling pot of water, the chemicals and nutrients from the cucumber will react with the boiling water and released in the steam, creating a soothing, relaxing aroma that has been shown to reduce stress in new mothers and college students during final exams.

    11. Just finish a business lunch and realize you don’t have gum or mints? Take a slice of cucumber and press it to the roof of your mouth with your tongue for 30 seconds to eliminate bad breath, the photochemical will kill the bacteria in your mouth responsible for causing bad breath.

    12. Looking for a ‘green’ way to clean your faucets, sinks or stainless steel? Take a slice of cucumber and rub it on the surface you want to clean, not only will it remove years of tarnish and bring back the shine, but it won’t leave streaks and won’t harm you fingers or fingernails while you clean.

    rom my muggle shop bought in Sada at 11.30 pm on Friday 9th May -

    Sada have a '5 for £3' offer on Cesar dog food (little foil trays 150g each) so I decided to treat our pooch to some as she had her booster jab yesterday (sad I know but she's my baby :o)

    Anyway - I think I have discovered a little glitch :j:j as I bought 5 assorted flavours (including one tray of 150g Cesar Country Kitchen with tasty turkey and brown rice in a delicious gravy) :p and the receipt showed the 5 for £3 discount but APG only showed the four flavours below:


    A v M
    1 x Cesar Chef's Choice Lightly Grilled White Fish, Ri... £0.75 £0.75
    1 x Cesar Chef's Choice Lightly Grilled Chicken, Brown... £0.75 £0.75
    2 x Cesar Classics with Tender Beef & Liver (150g) £1.60 £1.30

    I've searched both MSM and the Sada website but can't find the Cesar Country Kitchen with tasty turkey and brown rice) flavour on either site so I think this flavour is a trigger. However, it does show up on Morribobs website.

    The BC for the Cesar Country Kitchen with tasty turkey and brown rice is: 3 065890 121867

    Obviously, (if I'm correct - please don't shoot me if I'm wrong) the best APG would be obtained if you buy 4 x Cesar Classics with Tender Beef & Liver (150g) £3.20 v £2.60 plus 1 x Cesar Country Kitchen with tasty turkey and brown rice). The only supermarket that compares on the Cesar Classics with Tender Beef & Liver (150g) flavour according to MSM is Morries so I think this needs to be an A v M shop.

    I think this would get an APG for 86p on a £3 spend, making each little tray 42p (as opposed to 80p full price:eek:).

    Apologies in advance if this has already been posted (I did a thread search and nothing came up) or I have made a complete pigs ear of my first (possible) glitch! :cool::cool: If it is a glitch (and that's a BIG IF) then I will be over the moon for discovering my first glitch (not counting the Tassimo one I found and posted several hours too late as another poster had beaten me to it!)


    hth nenen.:)

    :T:T:T Well done if it is a glitch.

    No use asking me :rotfl::rotfl:
