How's this for irony?
Just checking a few wombles I picked up in the early hours and found this one. Someone had bought the 2L Fanta, (not 1.75L as we did) and it brought up the 2 for £2 multibuy and compared to Tesco and M. Lilt didn't compare but it did against M @ £1.
Perhaps we missed a trick?

Coke is the only pop sold in 1.75litres. All the Sprite/Fanta/Lilt that we were buying last night was 2 litres
We didn't miss a trick at allApparently, everybody knows that the bird is [strike]the word[/strike] a moorhen0 -
I was finally eligible for an e-reward survey today and I just got email confirmation of my 250 nectar points being awarded. :j
It reads:
We hope you enjoy your Reward - you earned it! Check back often for more opportunities to earn.
Too bloody right!! That took aaaaages to tick off the list. I was going to sign up the wife on her account but I'll not bother now for a poxy 250 points :rotfl:Apparently, everybody knows that the bird is [strike]the word[/strike] a moorhen0 -

Well spotted! I'm still recovering from lack of sleep and looking forward to another exciting nightshift in an hour:(
Thought it unusual if the guys on here missed anything!

Found a cluster of CS and in one of them I got a M&S Indigo jumper for £1.99 and a Gerry Weber dress, also £1.99. I didn't think the dress would be any good as it's quite tailored and my top half is a bit out of proportion with my bottom half, but it fits like a glove :j:j:j
Good afternoon welldone:THG I think WGCity is a nice area that is why I always do well when I venture further afield;) but it certainly gives you a buzz ..have you checked them out on the internet that's what I always do ..it gives me even more of a buzz when I find out what it cost new;)0 -

I did have a look but the dress isn't current season, but it is a very classic style. Similar ones are £130-£140, so I'm very pleased. I must admit I thought of you when I spotted it
