    I also have vouchers for tf bank. Used some on lingerie - needed bras. Will wait for Dine in for 2 as their whole chickens on it usually good value. Will probably do 3 for 10 on meat as well. Bought ready meals in the past and I was not impressed. Let us know if you find anything worthy of spending on.

    The dine in for 2 is on now so no need to wait :beer: although no chicken on this one.

    M&S Cruncher Cheddar cheese is lovely. It is on offer quite often, so is better value to buy then. HTH

    we like their jams, which come in some more 'exotic' flavours than whats on offer at the normal supermarkets. Currently working our way through a passion fruit and lime curd, which is gorgeous and not horrifically expensive at £2ish a jar.

    I'm confused, are you saying you can't get 4 meal deals and 4 bottles of wine for £40?
    No. Sometimes, in the same location, they have a completely different offer where you pay full price for the main and full price for the sides and dessert but then get a free bottle of wine thrown in.

    I bought Turkey mince yesterday - 600gms pack - as part of the 3 for £10 promo.
    I made burgers with it. The burgers were ok, tender very little water but not much taste.
    I'm not sure that I would buy it again.
    There was also Lamb mince and Pork mince.


    We have quite enjoyed the Beef mince 10% fat. I usually buy my minced beef from Morrisons- 5% fat but have found recently that it gives off a lot of water when fried. M&S mince had much less water.

    Not in M & S but Waitrose's Aberdeen Angus mince beef is to die for.

    More expensive than the usual mince but the taste........:A

    I love their gammon steaks, best I have tasted. I have a £25 M & S voucher (won in a free quiz at a free over 50s show:T) so it will probably be spent on 3 for £10 meat.

    Are the gammon steaks part of the 3 for £10 ?
