    Morning all - bitter cold outside

    a few queries.

    has anyone had their Q £10 bonus paid out yet or at least had confirmation?

    I did my orders last week and collected on Friday and Saturday. In the blurb it did say something about paying after 3 days so by whatever measure its day 4.

    Put it on the To List for later

    They said the £10 would show 3 days after it goes confirmed!

    Chillax :cool: Don't waste time and effort chasing them for something that may take until January! (or beyond):eek:

    My cashback went confirmed yesterday. :cool: I'll tell you when the £10 appears in my account

    another fabulous find in Aldi last night

    We have been getting the Aldi own brand cheeses for months now - a range of standard cheddars for £1.55 for 350g and OH has wensleydale on his sandwiches

    but I noticed yesterday they also have the specialist cheeses like wensleydale with apricots and wensleydale with cranberries £1.19 per 200g packs - this works out at £5.95 kg

    we like it with salads and when doing ad hoc ploughmans platter type lunches

    I looked at asda and theirs various between £8.50 and £12 a kg :eek:

    The one with apricots is gorgeous, but do not keep it in the plastic wrapper when you have opened it, it goes mouldy very quickly :eek: to the extent that we have actually been forced to bin it, and I normally scrape off mould quite happily!

  • That's a fantastic find mhoc, thank you.

    Wensleydale is my Son's favourite cheese, and won't eat the cheddar that glitches now and again.

    They do ordinary wensleydale for £1.39 a pack which is £5.56 a kg

    I also saw a continental cheese slices with pieces of smoked ham in the other day - this would be good for doing toasties :D
