    Snap where do you buy these string bags from please ? Thank you :)

    :) I originally bought mine from M&S but I haven't seen them in there for a while now.

    They 'grow' & you can get loads in them whilst they take up no room or weight at all in your Kipling bag :D

    Mr T sells a 350g Heroes carton :(

    As for the sweets - you bought 6. The multi was picked up on 3 non-aeros and the remaining 3 glitched because the aeros are on a separate multibuy

    I remember knitting one of those when I was in my late teens - from VERY stretchy Nylon - thrown out by BNS near here. It was about 8" square if unloaded. I took it to Uni with me & I remember 4 of us going to do our washing at the laundry, must have been a good 4 loads - laughing & struggling down the street with this humungous bag between us. We were talking about going for the record number of people in a bag. I think we might have won.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    What was I thinking- 4 loads? It was FAR more than 4. The bag had to have been about 3ft x 8ft. There were 8 of us sharing a house & we hadn't done any 'proper' washing for about a month:eek::o so 2 lots of sheets, towels etc. each

    The reason I like self service - you don't just walk in your front door and realise that only 1 item the cashier didn't scan out of your 10 items is your mint Aero :(

    APG was £7.78. I had to get the sugar and allspice to make banana chutney from 2 big bags of bananas from T's last night @ 15p each so I am pleased with the result. Am about to faff about with new amail addys to see if I can use the pizza codes. (must try not to burn the chutney while I'm doing that !)
