    Good morning everyone. Hope you all have a great day. I am starting to decorate DDs bedroom. Emptied it last night. We have stuff everywhere. How can a 10 year old have so much stuff. I blame the parents. Loads of nice things to car boot next year.

    Good morning :)
  • I think SA has just messed up an apg shop. She was scanning my fillers & scanned a pack of starmix, pressed x2 on the till & carried on!!! Aargh!! Only a small one so we shall see once I stick the receipt in. ;):mad:
    To the optomist, the glass is half full.
    To the pessimist, the glass is half empty.
    To the engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

    Good Morning All,

    Back from dropping DD at work. I should be following Mhoc's example and start on a decluttering project, but I think I will enjoy the quiet and a cup of tea for an hour before anyone else gets up!

    No major bargains so far this week. Got some of the Friexnet for colleague Xmas presents. (Had a £5 voucher which helped the price down a bit more). Not got into the M&M points yet.

    DH has a few days off, so we had lunch in town yesterday............. Had two Vouchercloud offers for ASK. Had a nice meal and DH paid using code. When I checked the receipt, I realised he had used the wrong code! We ended up paying about £7 more than we needed to!!! Honestly! Has he learned nothing? He is a magnet for trouts! Embarassed by coupons..........He did try to cheer me up by pointing out that we had also got a couple of free cards in M&S and free Starbucks. Bless him.

    Hoping to investigate the £8 gift sets today. Also, trying to decide weather to buy Ikea tins of biscuits, (£3 and not very big), or hope for Xmas biscuit glitch on the Vinnies, or hope for a deal on tins of Xmas chocs. Any thoughts?

    Have a great day. HE x

    PS SavvyDad love your sig!

    Good morning everybody, I hope you are well and have a lovely Wednesday.

    Happy shopping.

    I did manage a NSD day yesterday.
    Mortgage debt 45,000. Thank you all for your help so far in helping me save to buy the house. I could not have done this without all your help.

    If anyone (not in Northern Ireland) has Pringles on really early doors tomorrow (not on about 20 minutes' time doors, I don't mean like that:D) in A at 2 for £3, then vs M hopefully at £2.48 each vs £1.00 each.

    I have no information that they will be going onto 2 for £3, could well stay at straight £2.48 instore:(... but, just ones to watch!

    Hmm... I have found Pringles Original 190g on a.com but showing as "Unavailable": http://groceries.asda.com/asda-webstore/landing/home.shtml#!product/910000468193. Yet I come out of that page, searching for "Pringles" and go back in again and looks like it's a different product: http://groceries.asda.com/asda-webstore/landing/home.shtml#/product/910001592251. Product codes different?

    Anyway, as far as I'm aware it's straight £2.48. It would be better if it were to go onto mbuy (probably 2 for £3) and still be £2.48 straight online. Careful that you pick comparable versions only vs M (see my list) but no guarantee any of them will compare! I mention this now as M's Pringles offer is only on this week.

    EDIT: Looks like the following three are NOT available in M: Salt & Pepper, Hot & Spicy and Brazilian Zesty Chilli Style, so do NOT get any of those. Thai Sweet Chilli stocked in M but showing OOS for A on msm, therefore I have 9 on my list as comparable although M stocks 10 different ones including Thai Sweet Chilli. HTH.


    I used the Pringles in A as a filler yesterday. It would be nice to see a 2 for £3 glitch.

    WINE......for those worried about breaking the cap in Morries.

    Buy 6 bottles

    Buy in 3 lots of 2 your cash spend needs to be minimum £45. You earn 25500 points = £25.50.
    £45 - £25.50 = £32.25 / 6 = £3.25 per bottle

    Buy 1 lot of 6 you pay £32.61 after discount. You earn 14670 points = £14.76.
    £32.91 - £14.76 = £18.15 / 6 = £3.02 a bottle.

    That's not taking account of what Anon said earlier., which I accept, but as there's a problem with printing vouchers at the minute, it's not guaranteed you'd get one any time soon. So it's much easier buying 6 for less than faffing about with loads of seperate shops, worrying about breaking the cap when it's actually costing you more money.

    Hope that helps

    Thanks for this. My card isn't here yet, don't know why I was so slow on this one!! But I'll get a temp card and do 6. Do I need fillers or will a straight 6 wines do it?

    Home later than I would have liked, hate driving long distance in the dark


    We, have had several days on my own just chilling. Yoga and meditation, music and reading.


    No contact with the outside world and it has helped no end. I can see now that my mind was trying to carry too much and I needed to get away and lighten the load somewhat. Job done.


    The issues are still there but I can only do so much and that's it.


    I've no chance of catching you lot up so will start from here.


    Hope everyone is well, I bet I've missed a load of glitches but tbh I only buy what we use or what the family would use.


    It's so good to be home

    VT, how is your dad sweetheart? Amidst the meditation thoughts of you and your family came up x

    :T:T:T tis true :kisses3:
