    Poole.....and you? I was thinking the same. It's only a home store so not sure what they can tempt me to buy.

    Soton. I thought there was going to be instore promotions etc. I might give them a ring tomorrow & ask what's happening. Debs always used to give discounts & Mr B extra points. Unless they make it sound good I might give it a miss.

    Yes I watched it. :(

    I may be wrong but those not so perfect courgettes they tried to sell a twin pack of in a net bag that Hugh said looked older than the loose ones, I reckon the net bag may have had something to do with them deteriorating quicker than the loose ones.

    Several things annoyed me.

    Firstly they called it a trial but only did it in one store - to me a fair trial would be a hundred stores at least.

    Also why courgettes - why not an everyday root veg like carrots or parsnips.

    And also why charge the same price - they should have sold class one cosmetic perfects with an added 20p and ugly veg at minus 20p to balance the total cost of the load

    This is a lovely bargain from H.Samuel

    http://www.hsamuel.co.uk/webstore/d/2241072/silver+cubic+zirconia+kiss+earring,+pendant+%26+bangle+set/?utm_source=plusbox&utm_medium=feedmanager&cm_mmc=PlusBox-_-CKB-_-Jewellery-_-Jewellery%20Sets&cm_mmca1=&cm_mmca2=female&cm_mmca3=adult&rmatt=tsid:1014013|cid:344217724|agid:24335008324|tid:kwd-190715726164|crid:83721990244|nw:g|rnd:16749667225360554111|dvc:c|adp:1o4&gclid=CISJ5d2xhMkCFQs6GwodRYAAXA

    There is also an offer (on the homepage) to buy a sekonda £59.99 watch for £19.99 with any purchase.

    I was shown the watch instore today it is lovely but I could not warrant spending another £20. SA did say I could buy as many as I wanted. Not sure if that is really the case I had bought 3 things and mentioned I had 3 DDs.

    The silver set is lovely TS :) Would buy it for dd2 but she's more a leather bracelet kinda girl :o

    When you register you get a choice of offer, I chose 10% off food for 10 days. When I told my dd she decided to not register hers till just before Xmas hoping she'll get 10% off for Xmas food. My dh might need one by then!

    I agree. The supermarkets are not going to back down easily on all this waste. :(

    I nearly bought the set last year when it was half price for someone, couldn't believe the price for solid silver including a bangle.
