I have similar feelings about all this buying for the sake of it. I really don't enjoy shopping:eek::eek::eek: I like browsing around boutiques and the odd nice little clothes shop but actual supermarket shopping _pale_ I did register earlier in the year for cos and ipint and spent quite a lot of time running around buying sunbite crisps and Carling lager neither of which anybody wanted to consume.
I did take part in the pizza, Ben and Jerry's glitch and still have a freezer full of the ice cream.
I then asked myself why I was doing it? Do I really want to be flogging myself to death buying a kids toothbrush just because there is a35p profit? Yes I'm sure alot of people do car boot sales to sell this stuff but again Sundays are precious to me as Dh is home from work. I don't want to sound blase about Moneysaving because I'm not and money takes alot of earning but sometimes I think it's good to stand back and ask ourselves is the time effort and petrol really worth it for the end result.
That's my take on it anyway sometimes I think it's so easy to get drawn into things without realising it may actually not really be worth it.
So today we were supposed to be viewing Dd second house and the agency rang last night to cancel :mad: it's exciting starting off their future together but gosh renting is expensive.
Have a lovely day everyone enjoy the sunshine :cool:
My sentiments exactly, very well saud Di. I've not had a glitch apart from the pizza, which I only bought 5 as I knew they would get used at BBQ and granddaughter here for lunch one day.
I'm longing for a coffee glitch but it must be 'my' brand of choice. I know, fussy mare :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:There's no place like home

Morning:)
A few things missing the updates at the moment. Some give better return than others so one or two I wont bother to post.
Will start with the least straightforward one
Mixed small Pasta Meals/Beans - Heinz 65p/75p each or 4 for £2.00.
https://groceries.asda.com/promotion/2-for-pound350/ls87562
The 65p ones should hopefully compare to Morries offer of 4 for £1.50. The Heinz 75p ones not as good a comparison, Morries 4 for £2.50 offer. Unfortunately the Heinz beans and sausage (65p) is in the 4 for £2.50 Morries offer.
http://www.mysupermarket.co.uk/Shopping/FindProducts.aspx?Query=heinz%20pasta%20in%20sauce
In same offer, small C&B pasta tins, 75p each or 4 for £2.00. Some on offer in Tesco at 2 for £1.00 so APG should see £3.00 v £2.00 for 4.

Thank you so much .....I use these:D
Great on toast for a quick lunch
4 tins for 75p.......Fab:T

John West Tuna and Hellmans Mayo (750mls) 2 for £5.00.
https://groceries.asda.com/promotion/2-for-pound350/ls87567
Cant see any good comparisons for the tuna but the hellmans mayo should compare to Morries :eek: offer of £2.00 each, so £7.00 v £4.00.
http://www.mysupermarket.co.uk/Shopping/FindProducts.aspx?Query=hellmans%20mayonnaise%20
if this works v M it's a cracker:T
£1.60 for 2 and someone mentioned that the 50p off Greenredeem vouchers work on the larger sizes.....so possibly 60p for 2
I know the glitches are there but sometimes the comparisons let us down....but this is a great one....thanks izzey:)To do is to be. Rousseau

I know TM is out the door now so I will ask you, does she mean the packs of tuna could be £1.60 for two? Or is it the mayo? The mayo is still a good buy but I hate those squirty bottles you lose half of it stuck to the sides and I know it's a cracking offer but I still hate waste.
Toothbrushes no, tuna at that price.........as my daughter would say yeah baby said in a strange voice :rotfl:0 -
