    Love the comments in that thread.

    Who would want 14 bags?!

    :rotfl::rotfl:

    I'd want 140 bags.

    :rotfl::rotfl:

    My crisp target per bag is 5p...so this deal would fail.

    :naughty:

    I also have a cheese target...mature cheddar must hit £4/kg (or less) and mild cheddar must hit £3/kg (or less).

    Anyone else have target prices for certain items?

    (and don't say £0/kg on glitchy items).

    :rotfl:
    5p a bag on crisps - I go for 10p but think I'm going to nick your target going forward.

    My washing powder/gel etc is 10p a wash. T-roll used to be 25p a roll but now it's closer to 30p a roll. Tea bags targets are 1p. And fabric softener is under 3p a wash :rotfl: I could go on:D

    Yep £3 or less for a bottle of wine. :whistle:

    £1 or less for 4 loo rolls. ;)

    10p a clothes wash so per tab/cap full I'm not fussy. :cool:

    Oh and 1p for a big box of chocolates. :D

    Afternoon all :wave: Yesterday I mentioned that my mum had unwittingly signed up to someone that phoned yesterday from "stop these calls" . Still showing as pending £90 in her halif@x account. Does that mean that Halif@x still got a chance to stop that payment?
