Me too but I think September might be okay although it's just started to rain and scuppered my plans to cut the lawn:(so I am sorting out a few cupboards and doing a bit of Feng Shui:)that's always good for the soul.;)

Morning everyone. Off to bristol today to help sister move for uni. Day is filled up today, and we're off to zaza bazaar tonight for dinner. Question for the locals and anyone that's been, any suggestions for Tuesday before we head back? Also is the ikea store any good, never been to ikea and wondering if it's worth persuading dad to call in .

Meatballs in the Ikea cafe plus if you get am Ikea family card from the desk tea and coffee is free

There is a link to the survey on the homebase homepage. Try that and see if it works

ETA. This is where it points to now

ETA2. I went back to edit original post and see the problem. I broke the link when i copy/pasted . Whoops :rotfl:

Ta, I assumed I had done something daft to the link due to early-Monday-morning tiredness, but for once it wasn't me

I could do with some T direct advice if anyone is in the know: I'm trying to double-up my T vouchers to buy a £5 bucket bbq for our camping trip next weekend. According to my CC account I currently have £63.50 of vouchers, mainly £10/£15 ones, which is awkward for small purchases.

However, when I went to buy the bbq just now, it's showing only £28 of vouchers available, and none of the last 4 digits for each voucher relate to any of the vouchers in my account. It's also showing several small denomination vouchers which I don't have on my CC account. This happened last time there was a double-up, and I'm now very confused about whether the codes are just different, or whether there's been an error and I have someone else's vouchers showing on my T direct account?? I only have one CC so it can't be due to any confusion on that front.

Any advice gratefully received

Afternoon all :wave:

That's solved the issue with ikea then zaza has been booked by sister and her friend as they went there on their last visit when looking at houses.
Not looking to do anything major on Tuesday, was just wondering if there's anything worth visiting. Well go for a wander in the morning, before setting off mid afternoon,

The Ts next to Ikea are very accommodating with APGs :cool::T

Good Afternoon :hello:

It stayed fine while I trotted to Mr A and back got loads nice fruit :T and a bag whoopsie carrot batons to go with my mushy pea curry at teatime . When I make the curry I always have enough for 2 days .

Looked at my favourite Mr A meringue cakes and was :drool: but I was a good little t and no cakes went into my basket :T:T:T

:hello:

I know there were 'issues' reported on this thread earlier about these, but in England they are okay for today and very early tomorrow:

1 x Linda McCartney Frozen Vegetarian Sausages (6 per ...£1.70£1.00

Sorry, this time Morrisons were cheapest!:j

Morrisons

I wasn't going to buy them as they are quite expensive at 90p, but my store had no Gourmet Jelly Beans:(. Boogers stocking cheap pouches that are quite expensive and not the more expensive ones that compare to cheaper elsewhere. They had all the expensive "cheap" ones:(:rotfl:.

I'd rather the A price on the Veg. Sausages were way higher than what it is:(.

All was well on the comparison v M however. I got back what I'd calculated I'd now get:(:( - less than what my original shop would have been. I copped out from the Bird's Eye Mixed Veg. though as I thought it most likely it would lose.

It seems too often best to avoid comparable S/P vs Sains:

1 x ASDA Smartprice Cheese Slices (10 per pack - 170g)£0.50N/A:j
1 x ASDA Smartprice Multi Purpose Cloths (10)£0.36£0.50:eek:

I found one rare S Basics item that, according to msm, is now substantively cheaper than before though. Nonetheless I don't trust the price graphs! S Basics Denture Tablets (30) are 65p any 3 for 2 so, it seems, they are just about the only S Basics item to buy at all now. However, they have got that by making it in effect, any 3 for £1.30:eek:, so having you buy more:(:(. And not mixing and matching with higher priced items in the offer as you only get 65p off (for giving them an extra 65p by having to pay for the cost of 2, rather than just getting one previously - and that 65p is a second increased price, yet again, compared to buying them at the end of June at 55p. So, why reward them? I don't think I'd buy anything at all in the Basics line from them now, other than if a 2p whoopsied bread came on, and even then they seem like keeping them at expensive half prices for much longer in the day than elsewhere does and never going as low as 2p).

It's appropriate that this post, on the Veg Sausages, is near to the end of this thread as there's a price change due fairly soon so the information may not be valid too long!

:eek:I now have over 16 posts a day on here. I wonder if I've gone up way too high for my liking:o in the table of those posting most:o:o. Anyway, see you later!:wave:

I do not have a motor bike. Wanted one for my 18th 4 years ago but dad said they are death traps and wouldn't let me get one. I have a small car which I use to get me and my mates around and mum to shops and relatives. Why would you think I had a motor bike? I've never mentioned wanting to get one before.
