    Morning all

    Not had chance to read back too in depth so sorry if my question has been covered.

    I saw a post about loo roll but when I went to look on msm prices had changed however when I put 6 x Shades Softest Ever White Bathroom Tissue - 220 Sheets per Roll (2)
    This gave me an A's price of E6.60 comparing with a S's 9 pack at £3 which for me isn't showing as a replacement.
    So my question for the more knowledgeable is would that be a £3.90 apg?

  • Quick question for the elite - anyone seen a good deal on mattresses? Or can recommend a company? We really need a new one but I have no idea. First (new) bed I bought is the current one, almost 10 years ago! And have only had second hand for all other beds in the house. Haven't got a clue where to start to find a bargain... I want quality so prepared to pay, but still want a good price. Can anyone help please? Tia LBB

    What kind of mattress? Futon mattresses can be good value, last a long time, and give a great night's sleep IMHO. Get a bed mattress rather than a sofa mattress. They are hand made, too. Prices around £250 for a double one (or can be made to measure for around £10 more), if that's anywhere near your budget, but only if you're Oop North by the look of it

    as similar outlets in the South seem to be around 50% more expensive:eek:

    I don't know about sprung mattresses as I've never bought one.

    Yes I didn't get the ice scraper for the same reason but have one from last year. Gosh it's a full time job with all these deals :rotfl:

    Just giving the little one lunch then I plan to go and get some of lidl's cheap chocolate, I did think it would be a nice walk although not sure if it will rain :(

    Really glad you and dodo enjoyed the IHS, such a shame I was working, maybe another time although we should plan another get together soon :)

    Went and got my C&C order, no subs, free cheese :D

    Cost: £69.16

    Total paid: £33.87 after vouchers and multibuys!

    Sadly, the bottle of Appletise I ordered leaked in the bag :( It's ruined the label of the wine I got as part of the meal deal. I wanted to give that to someone as a gift - can I return it do you think?
