    Don't let me put you off, sorry but I do think you will need to check your store, the JF shop will be fine though.

    Yes the pasta is defo instore with a coupon from what I can gather haven't done this one yet.

    1st mystery case only 2 bottles of champagne. :eek:

    Plaza Centro Prosecco x 2 £6.49
    Moet & Chandon £32.99 Ts £25 Sainsbobs ;)
    Ts Finest Cru Champagne £19.99
    Valdobbiadene Prosecco £14
    Condesa de Flores Rose Cava £9.99


    2nd case much better :D

    Vintage 2011 Codorniu Rose £7.65 (usually £11.49)
    Tesco Cava Reserva x 2 £6.99 (last price I could find)
    Francois Dubois champagne(difficult to find price) HUKD report £15.99 offer last year down from £31.99 :D

    And finally :dance::dance::dance:Moet & Chandon x2 £32.99 Ts/£25 S

    Too tired to add them up. Not sure whether to ring about the box that only had 2 champs, the expensive prosecco has good reviews.

    Cant believe you got 3 bottles of moet in that lot, everyone up north must just buy the cheaper fizz :p To be fair, your first case does still sound good.

    Would rather find out before a shop that it's risky :eek: I appreciate the help. Been dithering over it for a few hours now :rotfl:

    Sweet dreams :A

    TS, your mystery cases sound fab :T drooling even though I am teetotal ;)

    £3.50 is a good amount - because you could just get 2 bags of spuds (if you need any) and a Frijj milkshake. The beggars to spend though, are the ones ending in ".01" - terrible trying to reach an odd amount like that (of course it depends what other APGs you have and what amounts they are). But - I like the round amounts. Plus the ones that end in ".45"p at the moment - as I can just buy a normal loaf of bread on there without necessarily waiting for whoopsie time.

    That's what I was thinking. Sometimes a nice fizz is just as good as champagne, hoping that £14 prosecco will be. ;)

    I have a m & s pink fizz I am working my way through, it's meant to be £19.99 bottle, really lovely. I got 12 glitchy for £4ish bottle couple years ago, down to my last 2, save them for special occasions as they as so good. :D

    Did put a smile on my face the 2 Moet in one box. :T Been a bit difficult to smile today as well with other stuff going on. :o
