    Hi Folks,

    Toblerone shop:

    Why £9.57?
    7 items (5 different) on your bill qualify for comparisonASDALogoWhite.gif Waitrose
    £8.84CheaperSignBlue.gif
    1 x ASDA British Semi Skimmed Milk 4 Pints (2.27L)£1.00£1.39
    1 x ASDA Smartprice Chopped Tomatoes (400g)£0.31N/A
    1 x ASDA Smartprice Sweetcorn (326g)£0.35N/A
    1 x Haribo Maoam Giant Sour Stripes (15g)£0.10N/A
    1 x Mattessons Fridge Raiders Roast Chicken Flavour Bi...£1.10£1.10
    1 x Frijj Coffee - Latte (220ml)
    £1.30N/A
    1 x Pringles - Sour Cream & Onion (190g)£2.48£1.24
    1 x Pringles - Texas BBQ Sauce (190g)£2.48£1.24
    3 x Toblerone Milk Chocolate (400g)£9.00£2.25
    Comparison total (compared products only)£16.06£7.22

    Milk was a bit of a fail, but had coupons for Frijj and Mattesons, so could be worse!

    Best bit was the SEL on the Toblerone was £2.50, so got another £1.50 back. :rotfl:
    Is there a trigger for the Pringles please?

    I live in a an area that is dominated by Christians. One of my friends is the daughter of a missionary, and another is a vicar's daughter.
    A former GF, both her parents were church ministers, she named her cat after a well-known religious leader, but she definitely wasn't a goody-goody:D

    Oh, and hello SSM:wave:

    . I do think a chaise lounge is a good description of you though. Stylish yet comfortable and laid back :)

    May the odds be ever in your favour;)

    My kids tend to arrive home around 5 am and then you hear either a guitar or some drunken person being ill...
    Or, like my sister did recently, you get a phone call around 5am, "Mu-u-u-um, I've woken up in A&E and I'm wearing a paper dressing gown ... can you come and pick me up?"
    Teenage boys, eh?:rotfl:

    But like I said to him later, "your mum was just the same at that age, too".:)

    I was a hand full fro 14 - 18... but have been good since.

    We have had the .. I have been mugged.... I am in hospital.... I've crashed the car......and the worst was a call from a home sick DS1 when we could not do anything to help him other than talk to him.

    All part of being a parent

    I have a piece of invaluable advice to pass on to the ladies, and any men with long hair :p
    You know those annoying pieces of ribbon that are attached to the inside of shoulders on clothes, for no apparent reason? The ones that always work their way outside the clothes, no matter what?

    ........if you are going to cut them out whilst wearing the garment
    1. choose a small pair of scissors
    2. Move your hair out of the way!

    :eek: :(:o:o:o :cool: :rotfl:

    That was attached to my head until this evening :o :rotfl:
