    Afternoon :wave:

    Just about managed to squeeze £10 of petrol in my car, had forgotten about the nectar deal (shame I don't keep one of those cans in my car too), got 500 points and 200 points from some groceries, plus used some till spits and my coupons offers - quite pleased with today's effort as I haven't shopped in s for a long time - ta very much aau for the reminder :T and to whoever mentioned getting a small item to check for till spits before getting the rest of their shopping :T


    :idea: you could take the longer route to the garage to burn off more fuel to create more space for more petrol to get your extra points - but wait ...

    Dont forget the offer of a minimum 200 points on a £10 spend starts today for sainsburgs, effectively 9.9p off a litre of petrol. :beer:
    (Price of petrol can vary the amount, but lets just say 10% for the pedantic)
    :p

  • I'm not sure Sparklyfree, but if no signage, look for "Offer" on relevant SEL for the pizzas, ice creams and wedges. I think it is in red.

    Thanks for this info.:j:T
    But just wondering. If you fill up with £10 go and pay and then go back to car, another £10 of petrol in, go and pay etc. What happens if there is a queue behind you. Is it encouraging road rage :eek:
    Ive done this fill up with £20 at m's to use my tsb contactless card and then go back and fillup a bit more, but there were no cars behind me. But the S petrol station is usually more busy. Just thinking it might be safer to round round and join the queue again :rotfl: Just wondering what you do :)

    Yes I was thinking that too:o

    Good Afternoon all :)
