Love porridge too bexy....it has to be the most underrated breakfast food ever..........cuts me up when I see children heading into school on a morning with a bag of crisps......and you can get the asda stuff for 60ish pence for 25 servings.
No brainer

Porridge is also great with a spoonful of honey to soothe a sore throat in little one... Above the age of 12 months when honey is allowed:)

Afternoon all

I am still doing the post Christmas de clutter - how many more times do I have to take armfuls of stuff upstairs.
Also got newspaper and mags out to go through before recycling.
And the fridge needs checking for odds as well
And I am doing an email mass delete, half done, only another 13 k to go.

I keep swapping between one tedious job and another.

Morrisons - anything worth buying for match and more?
Marks - anything worth buying to use the January conditional spends?

I expect the answer is no to both as I've got gift vouchers for both.

Annoyed with myself this morning re the Amex shop local promo before Christmas. I was re re reading the emails I had when I opted in and to me it reads like you could do this one - spend £10 get £5 credit as many times as you like - maybe not the same shop though.

Anyway back to the tedious jobs

M&s Dine in for 2 for £10 is back on.. Hth

good afternoon everyone
another update my little man is continuing to do gr8 hes bossing me around as per usual and eating me out oh house and home so all good ... the meds for the seizures are working as in he hasnt had one since that fateful sunday morning.

on the jelly front i noticed there were 57 5 for £2 on ms but 61 in sada i ran them thru ms and found 4 triggers ... these are :
1.the dole rasb jelly with pineapple thats common knowledge
2. asda chosen by you custard pot
3.Asda Chosen By You Peaches in Strawberry Flavour Jelly pot
4.vimto jelly in a pot ( not the pouch one)

im going to give it a try on a cc for tmoro and see


for the 69p -74p hartley jellys et al'they are both 22 items on ms and sada so there maybe an instore trigger but we have to be careful as the offer so similar to the concurrent offer running. grrr sneaky sad

Not common knowledge here:o:o:eek::rotfl:. Thanks for letting me know.

Good to know, thanks!

I placed my order for 4pm because I was confident

Confident or just willing to gamble and give it a go (can always reject/return if it doesn't work out)?

Just scanned some old Impulse stock and all three of them came back as unrecognisable products. If they are still using the same barcodes now in A stores then they all might be good to go as triggers..

Although I'd probably stick to the Very Very Pink in the early stages just to be on the safe side.

[...]

Didn't someone try the single-Very Pink yesterday and it didn't work? (Keep up Savvy:p.) The L'Oreal Pure Colour Smooth Shampoo works though.

Not Tesco (they have smelled it earlier), the actions are a part of the recovery plan.
A sad day for Tesco employees, as a shareholder currently losing money on my investment, I dont want employees to lose a valuable benefit like their pension,.
I know shop closures cost jobs on a localised front, and that millions have had their pension schemes closed in other businesses, but I invested in Tesco partly because it did look after its staff.

Tescos do not look after their staff, that's why they have such a high turn over in staff numbers, they treat the like what comes out ifS dogs bum I'm afraid.
