    I've ordered 12 bottles of my favourite wine which is the Isla Negra Sauvignon Blanc. Normal price £9.99 (no, Ive never paid that much;)), currently £4.99. They also sent me a £12 off £60 voucher.


    so £60 spend (inc a few potatoes).
    Less 25% (£15)
    Less £12 code
    = £33 or £2.75 a bottle :T:T

    The mysupermarket graph for this looks like a seaside wave up to £9.99 and down to £4.99 in a regular pattern :D

    My conditional spends are for £20 and £30 shops so only about £5 off but I've also got a TPP ... that's given me ideas now :D

    My DS has to get the bus to college, and it is always late or doesn't turn up. It drives him mad and his friend has complained loads of times to the bus company but they don't care.

    Buses are all the same I complained by email a couple year ago they replied saying they was looking into my complaint and would get back to me in 10 days. I am still waiting for reply.

    On April 13th day I go back work after Easter. My bus is changing Stagecoach are taking over from First Bus and instead of every half hour bus will be every hour :eek: . Going to work I will get there half hour early coming home if I reading timetable correct I will just catch bus. Will see how it goes first week back . May have to get walking if its unreliable.

    Sal yummmmmmm pilchards , love them but dont have them often

    Interesting that one is marketed as a Sardine and one a Pilchard when they are in fact both Sardines and the same size fish are used :cool:

    Dilemma...As they're already cooked do you eat the long squishy backbone found in Pilchards or do you take it out and discard ? :D

    Been to Ts for some general supplies and fizzy wine. Put this red one in the shop to test. The 25% off isn't supposed to work on sub £3.99 wines. This is RTC £3.64 and the 25% still kicked in making it £2.73 after PP.

    JAMIE'S ITALIAN ROSSO 75CL
    - £3.64 † n/a n/a n/a

    HTHS :beer:

    ETA bisol prosecco comparing to As as expected. 99p PP per bottle. Much easier when it's this price as you can get more bottles in one shop :D

    I usually have the pilchards with a salad and yes eat all.
    I toast one side of bread and spread mashed up sardines on and put back under the grill for a few minutes.The cat licks the excess oil from the tin.The pilchards are bigger than the sardines in the tins.

    Was the £12 off the £60 spend a personal voucher and was it for Tesco wines only, thanks. Living in Scotland we need to take advantage of the glitch in multibuys when buying online :)

    We like Isla Negra too but we like the red :)
