    £5 for me to Tesco CC x

    ETA Another reason to hate the Tesco CC website. Their grammar is terrible! It says 'thank you your payment's have been successful'!! Someone needs sacking!

    Delonghi EC145 /EC152/ EC155 - get refurbished. Nice small coffee machine and does the job. Bit messy (some don't take pods) but still. For a little mess (use a pastry brush to clean the grinds up - wilko) you save a lot of cash!!! My first one was over a gaggia (same thing just £150 more at the time) - remember to descale it!!!!

    Espresso cups - pound shop or charity shop

    Hope that helps :)

    Thanks Erme will have a look around.:)
