Every Loquacious Idiosyncrasy Treated Equally - 11+ ELITE Thread

Good afternoon everyone


I didn't get much sleep last night with the excitement of free fruit & veg on the brain. Was cleaning the fridge out at 1am lol.


DH got 10 papers & cut them out while I drove.


Great sa did first 3 shops then went back & did others with same sa. Each shop generated £1.50 off £20 moc & so we did a couple of ordinary shops using other mocs for coke & crisps to bring cost down even further.


I bought some nice stuffed mushrooms cherries prepared salads stir fry kiwis mangos Sharon fruit soup packs butternut squash as well as the usual. I'm going to freeze lots to make it last. Make cheese onion & potato pie soups bubble & squeak carrot cake & onion bhajis.


I'll find lots of use now for those pyrex with the red lids that we got almost free at T's.


It's been a real feel good day today & my elderly neighbours will be happy too!

Ooo never done that... Do you keep them in a syrup type liquid?

When they are doughnut peaches.

Says a lot about my fruit and veg shopping habits
I've never seen donut peaches before today, I thought someone had been messing around with the packages until I realised they weren't soft
Spose it makes them easier for the kids to eat

I'm wondering if I have enough mocs or if it's greedy to try and get more :think:
I have 5 left and am thinking I may get some fruit for jam making (I've perfected strawberry jam now so fancy trying something else).

I love Snaps idea of buying the exotic fruit to give a try and if it works on prepared veg I may have to get some for Sunday dinner :j

Can you use the Ms coupon on dry fruit? Just thinking I might get a head start on my chutneys and jams.
