    Good evening :)

    Managed to get to As, forgot my lists :mad:......remembered everything on the lists anyway :D

    Did my good deed for the day. Spotted a lost looking elderly gent standing by his car in As car park with the bonnet up and holding a set of jump leads, bless him. I won't tell you how many people just drove past him :mad:
    My battery is next to the drivers seat, so didn't even need to get out of the car :D 2 minutes later, car started and he was on his way :T:T

    Hi FC, well done you. The clue might be in your words " I won't tell you how many people drove past "
    Have you heard about the story of Kitty Genovese and the Bystander Effect?

    Must go and eat now but back soon:)

    Urghhhhh I escaped doing the ALS ice bucket nomination yesterday. Didn't last long, my cousins boy has just nominated me.:eek:
    Bum :rotfl:

    My daughter and her friend did it today, hilarious! If you listen to the video you'd think they were on a roller coaster or something with the high pitched screams they emitted!

    Ts don't like me either - so I'm not shopping there! (Message to Mr T - :p.) They sent me just my CC points vouchers with my CC mailing last time - and half of those I had to pay same amount for to get, not liking that idea much - no 'extra points' coupons or any xp off anything. They need to be missing me a lot more than they obviously are!

    I got my last pack of Veg Nuggets today in A - rushed out very early as looks like offer ending in T - they usually put prices up on me half way through the day and then they update immediately on msm and the APG:(. My shop worked though. :eek:Why do I always leave it to the last possible day when it risks not working? I really should have got them last night but, you know what it's like, spent much of the day wombling, ended up, later at night, in a store, that didn't stock much else I wanted (even if I had prepared any list which I hadn't:(). Next time I really will not wait till the last day, honest!:D

    Tesco - another store that really could not care if I shop there or not

    OH can't see why I love Asda - yes ours is delightfully scummy but even so I do get a buzz shopping in there :j

    A question Savvy - I keep forgetting to ask.

    On COS there is 40p cashback for a pack of Birds Eye fish fingers - 12s or 14s - is there such a thing as a £1 pack - I seem to remember getting fish fingers as part of a !!!!!! v Sada shop.

    I've found a 6 pack for £1 and value fish fingers £1 - not sure about these - but what is the next cheapest 12 or 14 pack?

    Also please can I ask what people have been buying with their Groupon and Livingsocial discounts - I've yet to do my orders yet.

    I've got 15 per cent code for livingsocial to be used by tommorow. The same for Groupon deals but another of my emails has a £10 off when you spend £20 and I am very keen to use this but I am struggling.

    Quite a few things you have to use within 90 days

    And looking at the food offers most of them seem to be for afternoon teas which we have done to death, steak and chips or burger type meals - suits OH the carnivore but not me.
    I've been trying to find a Italian meal with wine offer or 2 courses with wine offer, no success.

    I've got 2 things to buy with livingsocial - giving me good excuses to keep going to Liverpool incase John Lewis don't send anymore coffee cake vouchers.

    I am looking at offers for Chester, Liverpool, Manchester, York, West Yorkshire, North Yorks, Birmingham - still nothing inspires me
