On the subject of 'special interests' DS2 is still on Game shows but he is sliding further down the 'old' game shows slippery slope I really thought we'd reached the bottom at 7.30am this morning when I went to make sure he was up and he was watching old episodes of Golden Balls :eek::eek: :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I'm 'still on' Morries price collecting - thank goodness for the people on this thread!:D

I've been doing every Monday and Wednesday (without fail except that Monday has become Tuesday on a Bank Holiday) since about February this year. Originally as a self-set 'challenge' from myself to 'see how long I can keep doing it'. Still here, months later - I must admit I've been nearly waning in the last week or so but, come Monday, it will reinvigorate! This 'special interest' has gone on since 2011 - in fact we are probably just past my 3rd anniversary - and on this thread since the end of 2012. Shows no sign of stopping yet, I don't think I could ever go back to muggles' shopping given just how much I save. Womble today - the silly soul spent £2.50:eek: real money on some Sanex:rotfl:, and £6 on Dove deos:eek:. Along with getting Johnson's Tip to Toe Wash (500ml) one week after M went off £1.33:rotfl:. Instead of choosing 10% cheaper than £1.33 (= about £1.20), they went for £2 vs £2.67:rotfl: - of course they ended up with paying straight £2.

Total cost, on just those items, £10.50:eek::eek:. I worked out that, if I bought the Sanex and Doves correctly, as of course I did, then it would end up at about £0.00 for those, if not paying me to take all of them, and £1.20 on the Johnson's Tip to Toe (not aware of that ever glitching). That's £9.30 saved from the Elite method of shopping. Just on those few items, not even the rest of their shop (on which, as always, nearly everything on every muggles' shop is an overpayment). Only for them to have a result that their shop was £25 'cheaper' than T, and £16 'cheaper' than M, well over 10% cheaper than everywhere! Buying at wrong time. Buying at right time and in right way would give a very different result.

Lovefest :rotfl:

I love this word.

I applied for a lot of money yesterday for something specific… at the end of the presentation…..I said… ooh I feel like we have just had a lovefest.

Not the most appropriate use of the term… but I get the funding!

No I don't normally mind traffic jams, it's just being stationary on a motorway that seems to grate with me; I listen to Radio 3. And I wasn't late for anything ... I just wanted to get home [sob!]

My houseguest came home much later than expected from Devon tonight. He also had a very long and frustrating journey As a result he is vowing never to go to Devon again

It was for a very good cause that will make a huge difference to some very special people …. to achieve that I would have been a tart, literally!

One of those days when you realise that there is goodness in the world.
