    Utter rubbish.

    Everybody does it even governments and your local multi national food chains.

    You would be surprised how removing an item or downsizing a item can save over a period.

    Add up all those Starbucks or Costa Coffee you have over a month but don't really need and see what you could save.

    ( hello A. BADGER. You would disagree with me on anything even if it cost you millions).

    On the contrary. I wouldn't waste 1p on your opinions.

    Returning to topic, and leaving aside insults, Aldi have a new recipe for their lower fat sunflower spread. I will be switching to this one, really liked it. It didn't disappear when spread as the butter - type low fat spreads do.

    The jars of Grandessa honey had disappeared at my Aldi and been replaced by smaller jars of Everyday Essentials honey at 99p. It tastes just the same.

    This has got nothing to do with downsizing or money saving. I was asking how someone can make a claim about the general populations toilet habits - based on just their own experience

    Arguments about toilet habits are what made Britain Great ;-)


    Anyhow, can recommend the Lidl hammock design car seat cover that was on special recently. Marketed for dogs but I put the parrot's travel cage on it so I don't get seed and feathers everywhere. Excellent quality and at £4.99 a complete bargain. I bought it to replace one purchased off ebay that has now got too tatty. Same quality but closer to £15.

    They had other car seat cover designs so if you are looking for one check out Lidl there may be some left.
