Please can I ask is the ferro star and 2 milk trays a
!!!!!! v Sada
So about £2 each so not too bad.
My shopping lists are looking a bit lack lustre and I have several APgs to use
Milk tray 400g is against Morribobs
Here's my calcs from couple of days ago. double check on msm first as prices may change or I could have made a mistake.
Bendicks Mint is 2f£6 in T so two entries
Prices are after APG and prices are as if you bought 2 of the same from below but you should be able to average 2 different ones...
Edit: These are untested and use msm's values.#CHEEKY :cool:0 -
Munqui I don't APG that often but that's a damn fine looking spreadsheet, from one organisation fan to another
For anyone else doing the QC Christmas shop, had to put in a claim for the Book People as it didn't track but now it is showing in one of my Christmas 'boxes'. So if I were you I'd possibly pick a different retailer. I'm just doing ELC now for some Christmas stickers so will let you guys know how that goes.Debt free 6th December 2014

If anything it should be a lesson to people who do hide behind false identities/AEs. It's not difficult for anyone to find out who you are, where you live, and God knows what else about your real life and those dishing the poop out should remember that.
I didn't see the post, but it truly disgusts me that people can use this
forum in an attempt to bully and spread malicious comments.
You deal with such a lot in such a dignified way and are so supportive of anyone having a bad time both in real life and on here.
You always give 110% and deal with adversity in an incredible way.
I don't know you,, but feel that in real life you would be a fantastic friend an incredible person and a privilege to know.0 -

in the early days of posting on here I was a lot less cautious and a lot more niaive than I am now.
That said, I've never tried to hide who or what I am. I've met several lovely people from here and I don't regret it. If some sad person wants to use that information wasting their time looking at my house and car and finding out how much I pay in school fees for a year.........that says more about them than it ever will about me.
FC, I like everyone else is disgusted that someone has done that. I've just caught up, so thankfully missed the offending, offensive posts, but would like to say that I think you are a lovely poster. You have so much to deal with in your everyday life, and you cope admirably, even learning to fly, and going back to uni. Your tales about your son make me laugh, and you are a marvellous support to your DH which must be heartbreaking for you when you see him react as he did over the fireworks. Please don't take any notice of anyone who is nasty to you on here. Whoever it was needs to **** off and find something constructive to do with their life:eek:
I don't post a lot any more, but I have regular catchups/skips, and I love your posts. There are mostly lovely supportive people on here. I met VT through our shopping habits with glitches gleaned from here. She was behind me on a till at A and we had identical shops:rotfl:
I now count her as a real friend.
Zippy is a lovely bloke, with a lovely wife. I met him in Antigua when his daughter got married. It goes to show that yes, you need to be careful, but the lovely people I have met, including juju, calmspirit and matty17r, show that there are gooduns here.
I hope you don't let this put you off posting, cos you would be sorely missed if you left us.
I'm so pleased you got to feel a million dollars wearing that dress.
Sending you a big hug.
Luv

tweets - I have the greasy hair problem, and have to wash it every day. I have found, through trial and error, there is only one shampoo/conditioner i can use, as if I use anything else then it literally feels chip fat greasy as soon as I've washed it, its gross! I use the pink bottle of loreal elvive, which is for greasy hair. I have to use the same brand of conditioner with it, if I only use the shampoo it still feels greasy after. Anyway, if you haven't already tried this one, give it a go.
My DD who is 15 is the same, so i always keep bottles of the stuff and live in fear of it being discontinued! Its a pain when we go on holiday, as can't make use the free bottles of shampoo in hotels etc, but worth it for having hair that doesn't look like its bathed in grease! :rotfl:
Up early this morning, DD has gone to London with a friend as they have tickets for the X factor. No guarantee they will get in, and google suggests not many people do as the studios are smaller than they look and filled with friends/family of the performers etc. They got in the queue at 9.30am, and the doors don't open until 7pm. :eek: Have told her she is mental, and made her go with a bag packed full of food and blankets, so will see what happens!
Thank youThink I have tried that one to no avail will have a look next time I go shopping.

Are you getting a tiny amount of each or are you weighing an empty bag on the print your own label machine :rotfl:
And to think I thought my 3p sprout and 2p carrot chunk were good :eek:
Just get the smallest piece - also the odd floret of brocolli often works. It scans on the weigh-it-yourself as 1p (where, I'm told, it is rounded up) but is rounded down at the till - so 0p. The only problem I have had at SS tills is it's too small to change the weight when you put it in your bag so has to have SA override!“Life moves pretty fast.

tweets...I hope you find a shampoo that your hair likes....I've been trying too for years to find "the one"...sometimes its all good after the first couple of washes and then it all falls apart by the end of the bottle.
Years ago we were in a hotel in dubai,and the stuff that was the complimentary shampoo was brilliant....I confess I decanted it out of the shower dispenser on a daily basis over the week that we were there so I had some to come home with.....but I've no idea what it was nor found anything like it since.frugal October...£41.82 of £40 food shopping spend for the 2 of us!
