There are three different Sanex handwashes in a 3 for £3 offer in A. They are in the same offer as the travel size toiletries.
I have been racking my brains trying to remember the old triggers from months ago but unfortunately I am getting on a bit so didn't have a hope..:rotfl:
Anyway, instore yesterday I found what I think might be a trigger. I can't find it on A.com or msm so fingers crossed one of these will force the 2 x Sanex to compare £5 to £2.50, returning £2.75 on a £3 spend A v T.
All three flavours of Sanex should work A v T.
Unfortunately I could only find one solitary bottle in my store so couldn't test this..:o
We used to have the mini brush/dove mini deos' but they are on .com I think. There was a back massager thing was it nspa which i cant find on .com at the moment, it was a trigger for something before.:A NI FEIDIR ACH LE DIA BREITHIUNAS A DHEANAMH ORM0 -

I got six bottles of Sherry in Sains yesterday 25% came off OK. Also used £7.50 off £50 shop, £1 BM & £16 off from another promo. Think that works out at £4.17p per litre bottle.:beer:
I think the voucher exclusions may only apply to online shop.essex girl in exile0 -

Thanks for getting in touch about the price increase of our tea bags. I can certainly understand your disappointment as this price has increased by 100% and I'm sorry for any inconvenience that this has caused.
We're committed to offering great quality food at fair prices which is sourced with integrity. We regularly review our prices to make sure we offer value for money whilst remaining competitive and we work hard to negotiate great deals with our suppliers. Although we try to keep our pricing as fair as possible sometimes prices can go up as well as down.
There are lots of factors which can affect pricing, from rising costs of raw materials, to the production and packaging and even transportation. Whilst we try to absorb these increases for as long as possible, sometimes we eventually have to put the price up.
We appreciate the time you've taken to contact us and hope to see you in store again soon.
I had to laugh at the 'disappointment' - I was not disappointed, I was cross! At 1p a teabag, people may as well buy branded ones at HB, which is what I will do from now on.
On a brighter note, thanks to TS for the pickles tip-off, I bought 10 x Haywards at 20p each, some for DD, some for a friend, a couple for me and the rest for the food bank. Best before Nov 16.
And mhoc, so pleased to hear you are clear. x
As for hospitals, I remember years ago my mother asking me to wash her when I visited. Apparently the bowl had been left out of reach at the end of the bed, then whisked away. How anyone expected her to manage a bowl of water, flannels and toiletries whilst coping with her condition and a drip stand is unbelievable.
Hugs to all in difficult circumstances. x
I only shop at S for certain things that we like or if something's on a good offer. I don't use them for main shopping anyway.I Hate Jobsworths!!!0 -
Brilliant find SFSB.
I can't test these, there would be a mutiny from my children but may be able to pop out tomorrow xx0 -
Just tried using a NCG MOC on SS at Sada. Scanned but then rejected and crossed out on screen. Does this apply to all MOC on SS at the moment? TIA0

There was definitely a travel hair brush - I remember getting 2 or 3 of them that do get used !
The other items we were getting were Nivea for men deodorant and shower gel, and a ladies deoderant I think, all in travel sizes.0 -

But the only way i could look for glitches is if i had a step by step instruction to follow ..it would have to be on paper so that as i am looking i can refer to it every step of the way ....my memory is so bad it is even getting to the point where my son sends me reminders every day by text to remind me what to do every day
And if i am my attention is not way laid i get through what i am supposed to be doing .... but not always a class example of this was
i sat on the bed the other day took all my clothes off as i was going in bath ...then even with no interruption i then put all my clothes back on and went down the stairs to the kitchen and only by luck i turned the tap on to wash up when i realised the upstairs water was running ...i flew upstairs to find the water overflowing in the bathroom and luckily i got it stopped and mopped up then had a bath got ready and went out to an appointment at the hospital ...Only the next day i went to use the down stairs loo and then i was met with a ceiling that had collapsed and luckily for me it had ran to the lowest point and a lot of the water had actually luckily went down the sink ....the flooring was soaking and the plaster board was hanging from the ceiling ......Now all of that was caused by me because i took my clothes off for bath but in that "second" i
thought i was getting ready ... so you see why it would have to be step by step instructions that i follow ...so on here misers i can read back and reply to any posts
Another incident which made me really really mad with myself was this :-
I go to pick a toilet roll from the landing to take to the downstairs
loo and as i bend over i bang my head on the door ..too near to
door and i swear and curse at my own stupidity but i am not happy with that i proceed to do it twice more!!!
before i realise to stand a bit further back so as not to bang my head again ...doh doh
And at a family halloween party at my house for DGD i got everything ready no problem so all that needed to do was to dish out hot dogs to those that wanted them ....So i ask who wants them go into kitchen and then return to the living room with out the hot dogs several times...doh....then when they all went home i find several packs of cakes that i hadnt put out for them so the jelly brigade got there dessert ...and a few must have got cake but must have been stretched a bit like Jesus feeding the 5000 with 2 loaves of bread
So if you or anyone else on here can give me a step by step instruction how to check for glitches i would love to have it
But if not i am always happy to test a glitch for you or anyone else
So i know you get your holidays to Disney which is fab
but for me it means the difference from scratting every week to survive or to be able to have a few little extra's every week as i live alone the glitches help me stretch my money a little bit further
That really puts things into perspective, sometimes we are too quick to judge. If u have something which u think will benefit others, please do & don't expect it back, as this is not allways possible0
