Good find thanks :T do u happen to know how much the peppers are on sel I could only find jar of red chargrilled & They were £1.79:eek: thanks x
In my store the SEL was 25p. However, they had slid a promotional 2 for £3.00 over the top so you couldn't see it!“Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while you could miss it.” ~ Ferris Bueller0 -
:wave: morning!
I haven't bought any in the last month (I think), don't think Bubbs buys them either.
I eventually won a voucher and didn't bother printing the next batch of vouchers
I ended up with over a hundred £1 ones I never used :eek:
I have actually never bought any of the pizzas :eek:fairclaire wrote: »Afternoon
Lovely sunny day here. I'm all packed and ready to go but I'm not allowed to leave until DS2 gets in from school. Best not to argueWhilst sorting my stuff I realised one of my debit cards is missing :eek::eek: I've phoned around everywhere I've been in the last few days. It's at Morrisons and has been since Monday
:o Woops! I must've been so busy stuffing my £5 vouchers into my coupon wallet that I forgot to take out the machine :cool:
Glad you found it, safe journey.0 -
I was just thinking the presenters would have palpitations if they saw the elites cupboards.
'And why do you need 50 packets of these branded biscuits and a decades worth of dishwasher tablets?' :rotfl::rotfl:
:rotfl: I thought that too, then they would add it all up and say you've £x amount of pounds just sat in you cupboards and we'd reply NO where near, they were free or nearly free:)0 -
If you are worried that your M&M voucher prints out and you don't realise, you can change your preference online so that the vouchers only print out after you have requested them. The request has to be made onlinefairclaire wrote: »I personally can't see why anyone would miss them? they are exactly like sainsburys and come from a different printer above the till where your receipt prints out.
I did this at the very start when there were glitches on the system and I had to wait until. had £75 worth of vouchers spit outtrust me, you can't miss them
I guess some people are easily distracted at the tillfairclaire wrote: »Afternoon

I wondered the same, watching bits of it last night (though longer than a month for me); and over £1,000 in stockpiled food:eek: To give the family their due, they were genuinely shocked at their spending habits, and were prepared to do something about it.
More like 'And why have you got 50 packets of branded biscuits piled up in the bottom of the wardrobe, and a decades' worth of dishwasher tablets on top of the bathroom cabinet?' (And the handwash in the garage. And the banana box full of pasta sauce on top of the freezer; and why did you buy another freezer in the first place? And how much food do you have stashed at friends' and families' houses?)
A reply could be, "Well if you give me their full retail value in cash, then you can have them yourself".
:rotfl: I forgot about the extra storage space.
I have 2 fridges and 3 freezers, it just seems so normal to me, I guess it could be considered extreme :rotfl:Historic Debt August 2009 = £63,600 10th March 2017 = £0 100% paid all gone!
Mortgage started June 2015 = £170,000 January 2022 = £134,000
Saving for Xmas 2022= . . Amazon £55

Good afternoon:wave:
We skated to school this morning luckily without incident:) and we've got lovely blue sky so most snow will be gone by tea time:j
We are off to @ in a mo, didn't get yesterday:( I see the coffee was still working, I'm going to try.
I've just tried the t code, I only got one to work so didn't check out. Fingers crossed for those that did:)0 -
phew, Galloways must have sensed my concern over the missing £5s I claimed for
I just got 2 email confirmations of money being sent in the post :money:Apparently, everybody knows that the bird is [strike]the word[/strike] a moorhen0 -

Exactly
If that's what they reckon it's worth, I'd ruin the program and offer to take the cash off them :rotfl:Historic Debt August 2009 = £63,600 10th March 2017 = £0 100% paid all gone!

If you want to use 4x£5 vouchers on each shop but you are only earning £19.80 per 20 pack shop then you either need to buy a filler which gets you extra points or do 2 shops of 21 packs at the start (you'll max out at £10 Match points on those shops but you'll get £10.50 in More points)
if you buy 21, 21, 20, 20, 20 and get a 20p filler on each of the 20pack shops then your costs are
shop 1 (21 packs), pay £20.79 get back £20.5
shop 2 (21 packs), pay with £20 vouchers and 79p cash get back £20.5
shop 3 (20 packs) and 20p filler, pay with £20 vouchers and get back £19.80
shop 4 (20 packs) and 20p filler, pay with £20 vouchers and get back £19.80
shop 5 (20 packs) and 20p filler, pay with £20 vouchers and get back £19.40 (because of the £100 cap)
In total you've paid £21.58 in cash but you'll still have £20 worth of points so effective cost for 102 packs of biscuits and 60p of fillers is £1.58
ETA:
This assumes they don't have in place a total limit on the promo, or a limit per flavour (which you could get around by getting a variety of the 9 or so different varieties)
Thanks AAU
Had till spit out another £25 vouchers when I got my fuel this morning so was thinking about doing a fresh batch of shops on a different card
The above makes my usual muddling through redundant :j0
