Oh dear, I am a wanton extra agent mare
. I really fancied some nice ice cream and bought Kelly's Clooted Cream ice cream. It was bloody lovely :cool:
That should read extravagent lolThere's no place like home

Mhoc, the BOS accounts are vantage accounts, like the old LLoyds ones, before LLoyds decided to reduce their interest rate to something ridiculous. You can move the £1k from account A to B, B to C and C to A each month internally, so no new money needed.Just been reading the MSE article and it lists Royal bank of Scotland 3% for balances of up to £5k and you can have 3
This is not on your list of current accounts - is there a reason?
They need £1k to carousel into them - is this from a non RSB account or can the 1k go from one to the other???
Wonder if this is new or have we just not noticed it?

Oh, surprise. It's still a good APG (best vs Sains.) but I didn't like this:
4x McVities Baked Cheddar Cheese Biscuits (150G) £2.00 £4.40
I was wishing they had bought the Bacon version (N/A vs Sains?) but sadly they have not.
2x Jammie Dodgers Original (140G) £1.00 £1.80
1x ASDA Extra Special Horseradish Sauce (195G) £1.00 £1.95:(
A few items were cheaper so they helped:
1x Bisto Gravy Granules (300G) £2.20 £1.50
1x KP Dry Roasted Peanuts (300G) £1.98 £1.50:T
The nuts are good for a womble, but I wouldn't get expensive branded packs of nuts like that. Nor would I get M's own Christmas nuts at expensive (IMO) 2 for £4 pricing - instead I'd get the Monkey Nuts at 50p. I popped by M on Saturday though and it seems they were no longer there, so may have all sold out but I managed to pick up one before. I wasn't very happy that the SP Salted Peanuts bags now seemed very small and to be charging 48p for those!:eek::rotfl: They seem really dear at 48p for that small pack when the much much larger bags of Monkey Nuts were 50p in M.
Thankfully the 2 for £4 were non-comp.!
1x Garnier Ultimate Blends Gloss Reviver Shampoo (400ML) £2.00 N/A
1x Garnier Ultimate Blends Gloss Reviver Conditioner (400ML) £2.00 N/A
This could have been cheaper elsewhere, or it could have been much more expensive:(. So, instead of it being much more expensive I'm glad it's N/A.
1x Budweiser Lager (24X300) £12.00 N/A
Having to rely on them, once again, buying items that aren't comparable as they make so much poor purchasing decisions:p.0 -
