    The cost of your shop at Asda was: £8.95 £8.95 £10.54 £8.99
    The competitor cost would have been: £9.37 £10.88 £12.50 £11.12
    To be 10% cheaper Asda needed to be: £8.43 £9.79 £11.25 £10.00
    Compared to the 10% cheaper price
    £0.52 more

    M&S do flowers by post. Next also do, though not sure if they still do.
    Thanks Silvercar...I was avoiding M&S...having received some from them a while back...not sure who they use to actually deliver them but whoever it was decided that because we there was no one in they would leave them propped up between our bin and recycling store with no card through the door to explain...needless to say when we discovered them some days later all they were fit for was recycling!

    one of the reasons that I also wanted letterbox sized packaging for the ones I need now
    frugal October...£41.82 of £40 food shopping spend for the 2 of us!

    Think I've missed this, what beer is it please? Is it through a cash back site? X

    This is what you are looking for .....the code is on the back of the label and this is where you register your claim.....4 for £5 in Sada

    I have now claimed for the beer using the three codes required...For those that are looking to do this...Just to let you know that you don't neccessarily need to buy the beer...The codes are on the outside of the labels...All you need to do is note three of them on different bottles....or photo them....Register on the site and input your details along with the codes...You will have to enter your bank details where the payment will be made...Doesn't look like you could make multiple claims...:cool:

    Think someone has already thought of this as the 3 i bought earlier all say code already used.:eek:

    I know marmy, and to be fair, its free beer, so thats as good as it gets really. :beer:

    edit: they also produce a dry-hopped lager I fancy trying if I can find it, wonder if that has the offer on too.
