    Legs of lamb going half price tmw at T ;) careful you don't get overcharged ;)

    Really quite funny once when someone was complaining to me about being overcharged in T's, they had picked up some washing powder where the SEL was out of date (I had picked some up too but mine was half price and OOD, theirs was a different one), it was a young couple so I explained to them how to deal with it and suggested they queue behind me to see how to do things, I think they converted there and then :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: I am still using my DTD washing powder over a year later :D CSA asked why I had picked up two massive boxes and I said it was because it was meant to be half price, fortunately that CSA did not know me at the time!! I made sure the other SEL stayed in place and hung around while the young couple got sorted, they were absolutely delighted with their DTD.

    Exactly, you just never know. We had a 3 year plan, so we'll see how things are after that.

    There's not really any room for a dishwasher at ours, the freezer and tumble drier are in the garage and we're loosing a cupboard and a half to make space, but it's worth it because I get really bad eczema on my hands, so washing up by hand isn't really an option :(

    Have you wallpapered your downstairs loo with the overpayment letters yet?

    That's a good solution for your hands. Hubby suffers a bit with eczema too and avoids washing liquid too. I know how painful it can be.

    No collated them in a pile. He has built a program to show all the figures.

    :hello:Well which muggle has fallen for the £1.60 Cadbury Triple Roll?:( That's right - yours faithfully:o. I just decided to use it on a shop to use up an APG that I've just not managed to use and was in danger of losing. I thought I'd give it a go and take the risk and I have this crazy idea that it might turn up from the Monday collection but go N/A on the Wednesday collection. I've had trouble in the past getting Cadbury rolls to compare vs M, and I'd put it at about a 50:50 chance of it working. (Yes, that slim.) Watch it go N/A and I've done my money! I'll probably end up waiting on the receipt just to ensure the prices have been updated and then, if I'm right about the difference between Monday and Wednesday, it'll be no use anyway as, if it works, by time anyone else goes for it, the prices will have updated again:rotfl:. I could have bought it far cheaper anyway on whoopsies...:mad: The wombles had better come back with some good return that's all I can say!

    If they had just not bought these:mad:. They were doing alright for me, until they fell for a 2 for £2 mbuy and bought these two Dettols:(:(:(

    Chocolate Sponge has gone N/A vs Morries, although still comparing vs T at £1. But that's a good thing as may mean the prices have updated, which is what I want. Except that :o:oI now notice it's the boxed one and not the Fresh Cream one, so not the right sponge vs M anyway. (I think each compares vs T.)
