    Thanks tweets, I think it has worked :T
    Before you assume, learn the facts,
    Before you judge, understand why,
    Before you hurt someone, feel,
    Before you speak, think.

    Mystery fizz has arrived :) I got:


    1 x Charles de Ravon with tatty label - I can't find this one anywhere
    1 x Louvel Fontaine with tatty label - currently £15 in A
    1 x Georges d'Albot with good label - £30
    Linoti Sauvignon Blanc - £12 (really?)
    Canti - £8.99
    Bella Cucina - oil soaked label, exposed oily and sticky cork - T are refunding me for this one and told me to chuck it away.


    So a bit of a mixed, and indeed mysterious, bag this time around. For £40 less whatever I get refunded, I'm happy :D
  • Yep

    There's also one where they were stopped by the police in the car.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FPM-hglpQBY

    is that the video?
    the officers sound like idiots. also, they are required to wear hats when interacting with the public. I do wonder why they were not.
    goes to prove that they were happy to not follow rules and procedures.

    one of my nectar cards this morning has a new offer on nectar.com - buy a Schwartz herb or spice get 100 nectar points

    I've seen how much they charge in sainsburys compared to how much for herbs and spices in Aldi so it would have to be one that Aldi does not sell

    Not checked what is on the Quidco clicksnappy list yet

    I got this one in my box of bog standard mystery whites yesterday - it will look good at Christmas anyway
    Linoti Sauvignon Blanc - £12

    10 Assorted Jars of Schwartz Spices £2.49 in Sainsburys (Pay £16.50, get £6.50 Brand Match voucher and £7.51 cashback)
    http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/10-assorted-jars-schwartz-spices-2-49-sainsburys-pay-16-50-get-6-50-brand-match-2307229


    also

    The Slow Cooker Schwartz spices are now just 50p in Sainsburys

    You can claim 50p back from checkoutsmart or 80p from Clicksnap

    Buy on 2 separate receipts and claim back 81p from Clicksnap for the 1st receipt and 51p from checkoutsmart for the 2nd (the extra 1p is if you enter the prize draws)

    So that's 2 packs of slow cooker spice sachets for a profit of 32p

    Do not buy on the same receipt as the 10 jars of spices because they are more expensive in Asda and will reduce the value of your brand match voucher

    and

    don't forget to throw in a £3 pumpkin and claim £3 from TCB and 65p from ST

    I might have to try the standard whites again when they are in stock but I'm always a bit nervous of getting too much chardonnay. We don't mind it but don't want to be overrun with it as there are so many more interesting wines available.

    Good morning Elite ❤️

    Working at pet rescue charity shop this morning, 10-12, and had to bring Berry Bear with me as he has been stressing, got vet appointment for 2.40 today. He has pancreatitis and it flares up and when he gets stressed like this I know he is uncomfortable, poor old boy

    Horrible weather today, wet and the wind has picked up. I was surprised at how high the river was as I drove here this morning 😱😱
    :( Mr 3Dogs 3-7-12 :( 3Dogs'Mam 31-3-13 :(
