    Exactly continuous shopping. You lot would die if you new my previous shopping habbits. Apart from the last 16 weeks Let's just say in the ln the last 10 years adsda has had a whopping £182,000 off me. So I'm looking forward to saving £150k over the next few years to upgrade my house.

    How do you know - does all of your shopping in Asda go onto one credit card?

    How many households do you shop for?

    my old eyes can not read the receipt

    I found them. I scanned with my phone app and it came up at 2p :D


    took to ss and they scanned at £3.49 :(:(

    my store must have done an override :(

    Pmsl no no quite!! Ha ha just had really bad shopping habbits, fortunately/unfortunately I earned quite a lot from a fairly young age, ( high commissions in sales)and with no comparison in real life - I didn't understand the value if the pound. If I wanted somthing I had it. No consideration to what I was buying. Well as my mum said( why don't we listen) nothing last forever and found myself skint
    after a few years because things changed. I would spend 350
    On a normal shop at asda then Christmas or other speacialist occ upto 600!!!
    So I have has some real life training into the value of a pound and whilst my spending habits have slowly got better I have never been a savvy shopper until I stumbled upon some whoopsies late one evening after my walk/jog . Then a programme I watched about the same time about extreme couponing. I was hooked.

    Well its easy done when you have plenty to spare. I used to be first to the till when out with friends but I eventually realised they had their own money and werent taking turns.

    Thanks CoT, that is my kind of shop!!
    My personal challenge is to ensure the cost of my voddy is covered by APGs :beer::beer:
    Have also decided that all the flumps etc are going into a tin to cover us for Halloween.
