    DH has just arrived home with a bottle of Rose wine he was given by a supplier. I'm doing the dryathlon for January, so I've popped it in the cupboard for another time. Sainsbugs are selling it for £6.00! Added to my total :D

    Bobarella - I don't think I will do anything with the savings as this is my usual haul so am used to living on YS - sad really isn't it
    I also shop for my daughter. mother and daughter's friend, so I do share "the spoils" lol

    Just a quick report about my hubby's full conversion to wombling. He came home with a full bag of packed lunch essentials from sainsborg, and he was beaming when he announced he only paid 31p for everything. He used £5 of his accumulated nectar points and coins at the bottom of his man bag. What surprised me was that 90% of his items were ys and they are salad and fruits. He's like a new man, I think he's taking his plan to lose weight more seriously than me. As a family we have done quite well on the healthy eating side of things. We've eaten lots of fruits and vegetable, the last time we had meat was Friday night.

    Found a shiny 20p piece, which is a miracle considering just how little time I've actually had to look for anything...

    Just done a 25 point survey for Mr T from last night's receipt.

    Do you all add these to tallies as you go, or wait for the vouchers to arrive and then count those?!:huh:

    Hi Autumn
    I always note any wombles here as I go but I use the vouchers in the case of Mr T as I am never entirely sure how their points to ££ works out.

    Hope that helps
