    Good evening all.

    I work opposite said building. As far as I know they do try their best to reunite with sender/recipient(sp) and some do eventually be auctioned off. I would so love to wander round the place and see what strange post there is that is lost.

    Elliemoo! So nice to see you posting! :D

    Thanks for confirming Im not mad! I came across this years ago during a project I was working on. Some letters from prisoners of war during WW2 had been held there forever and they had a bit of publicity to re-unite the letters with the intended recipients (or families as it turned out in a lot of cases :( )

    I would also like to visit. I bet it's fascinating!

    One for everyone, including Northern Ireland:j.

    Not too much on here these days, as I seem to be becoming ever so strict in buying anything at all:rotfl::rotfl:.
    However, I've put the odd 'silly' ones on here this time, which I've marked with roll-arounds:rotfl: and you buy totally at your own risk, especially on the Sonicare toothbrush! Might not be silly after all if you find a price mis-SEL and get DTD on the item!

    Tvs S

    :naughty: S putting up the prices on the Ryvita Thins - they were £1.00 but that didn't last did it?:p Now £1.89:eek: in Sains so that's now a no-go:(. Wondering if there is any equivalent in T of the own brand Double Concentrate Tomato Puree with Chilli 200g (20p in S). Not on msm for me, but that doesn't mean owt. Possible could be available instore even if not showing online on t.com and therefore not on msm for me to see.

    Tesco Everyday Value Corn Flakes (500g)31p 31p
    Tesco Everyday Value Pork Chops - frozen (800g)£2.50 £2.50
    Tesco Cod Fishcakes (10 per pack - 500g)£1.25 N/A
    Birds Eye Fish Fillets in Crispy Batter (4 per pack - 400g)£4.00 £2.00
    Birds Eye Crispy Chicken (4 per pack - 340g)£3.25 £1.62
    R Whites Lemonade Ice Lollies (3x75ml)£2.00 £1.00 (in the light of being A N/A on msm)
    Tesco Everyday Value Strawberry Flavoured Splits (6x35ml)79p N/A
    Britvic 55 Sparkling Orange 55% Juice (4x275ml)£4.39 £3.00 (but not good at all unless you have a special reason why you'd be buying this)
    2xSilver Bay Point Rose (75cl)Any 2 for £5.00 N/A
    Tesco Everyday Value Caramel Wafers (5 per pack - 120g)40p N/A
    2xBahlsen Hit Cocoa Crème (250g)£1.00x2 Any 2 for £1.50:rotfl:
    Tesco Everyday Value White Chocolate (100g)30p 30p
    MaltEaster Bunny (18g)1p N/A
    McVitie's Digestives - Milk Chocolate (2x300g)£2.49 £1.50
    3x Tesco Everyday Value Flapjack Traybake (8 per pack - 360g)70p Any 3 for 2 (do not mix and match with other items otherwise you do not get best saving) N/A
    3x Tesco Everyday Value Apple Pies (6)/Chocolate Chip Cake Bars (5) 50p Any 3 for 2 N/A
    Tesco Everyday Value White Pitta (6)22p 22p
    2xBatchelors Beanfeast Bolognese Style (120g)99px2 Any 2 for £1.70
    Tesco Cream of Tomato Soup (4x400g)£2.00 £1.50
    Ginsters Steak Slice (216g)£1.00 N/A
    Ginsters Chicken & Mushroom Slice (204g)£1.00 N/A (careful - S has 170g version at £1.70)
    Tesco Dispersible Aspirin 300mg Tablets (16)28p 25p
    Philips Sonicare Power Up Electric Toothbrush £50.00 £25.00:rotfl:
    Tesco 5in1 Dishwasher Tablets Lemon (56)£6.00 £4.00 (but losing 4 tablets due to S being 60 - and msm is comparing 5 in 1 vs All in 1 so may be N/A)
    The Lake District Cheese Co. Quark Natural (250g)62p N/A
    Edit: [Strike]Tesco Courgettes (500g)£1.50 £1.00[/Strike] Now decided that A's loose courgettes, on Avs T, are much better price per g., although even they are more expensive than what they were in October last year.

    Oh...booger..there's a £10 cap on the PP and therefore Sonicare at best will cost minus £10 assuming price SEL saying £25 (if it really is £50) - may be better if lower price than £25 on the SEL but costing £50. Will wipe out anything else on PP even if it then compared, so may be best to buy N/A items or same price for S only. Or may be best just to get the Sonicare with DTD (subject to availability) and not bother with 9 useless items if the Sonicare just goes N/A anyway and doesn't give anything.

    No you are definitely not mad, it is a very real place.

    I've been having a little lurk now and again over the last couple of weeks. I have been busy with rl, I did catch that things are tough for you but I see you are still hanging in there. I have learned over the last couple of weeks that there are some truly amazing and humane people in life with a true vocation and dedication.

    What did they call rush hour when it was still slow? Hmmm, wait a minute.....

    Where do your thoughts go when you've finished thinking them?
    Oh hang on I've just realised mine end up in posts on threads like this one.:D
