    First attempt at an APG shop tonight. I think I got a couple of fillers wrong, but got a wee APG anyway.

    9 items (7 different) on your bill qualify for comparison ASDA Tesco
    +£3.47

    0.17 x ASDA Mushrooms by Weight per kg £0.46 £0.45
    0.36 x ASDA Golden Delicious Apples per kg £0.62 £0.70
    1 x ASDA Paracetamol 500mg Caplets (16) £0.19 £0.23
    1 x Haribo Maoam Giant Strawberry Stripes £0.10 £0.10
    2 x Imperial Leather Skin Kind Shower Gel - Enrich (50... £5.40 £1.82
    1 x Swizzels Matlow Strawberry Refresher Bar £0.10 N/A
    2 x Candyland Flumps Mallow Twists (12g) £0.20 £0.20
    1 x Haribo Starmix £0.10 £0.10
    1 x ASDA Chosen by You Giant White Mice Bar (15g) £0.10 N/A
    1 x ASDA Red Peppers (3) £1.20 N/A

    APG for £3.84. I paid using some previous APG vouchers, so cash cost would be £1.22 once I take off the APG.

    Not bad for my first attempt!

    I just wanted to share my good news. My mum is 100 today & we've had a wonderful day with her. She's in a nursing home but we were given exclusive use of a lovely lounge, which I decorated. We had lunch, courtesy of the home & then a party for the wider family at tea time. Wonderful food from M&S, glitchy Martini Asti & 2 beautiful cakes. It was a day to remember x

    Congrats, salutations and well done to your mum. Hope I get to 100 and have someone who will bring me cake and wine :T:D

    Even if I have to have it through a straw and it hurts my gums coz I've got no teeth :D;)

    Somehow though I think my liver would have given up long before then...Hic ! Hic ! :beer:

    Thanks remote:)

    I haven't done any of these cash back shops for ages and could kick myself at how much I could have been making from wombles :o

    In about half an hour I've "made" nearly £8 including £1.80 on Q from Carling.

    I am such a nugget:mad:

    I wouldn't care but I never even womble at T's and today there must have been a dozen long receipts I could have picked up:o

    I am filled with renewed money saving vigour:T
