Im a BIG library user E:D

Does your library provide Zinio for magazines too?

Not sure, not really one for magazines. It was funny, I worked for 6 years in a newsagent, think I can say at one stage or another I have read every magazine (ones that don't make me blush anyway ) and the only one I found vaguely interesting was Readers Digest, and then that went downhill.

Well I just signed up to COS and now have £7 in there re Minions.

Says one day only on mine, though, so I doubt I'll be going out for more...

It may expire tomorrow or get extended

Sorry for quoting myself but this is working multiple times, buy one at a time (only 2 types of tights in the workwear section), each time the code applies and comes up as free. May/may not get cancelled but thats the life we live on here.

Hello not sure if this is any help but a lady in front of me yesterday bought two Pringles and got a free Pringle holder . It went through at £1.25 and then took £1.25 off if you see what I mean

Anyway evening :wave:

Tomatos... There are different views on these, here is a quote from arthritis research uk

http://www.arthritisresearchuk.org/arthritis-information/arthritis-and-daily-life/diet-and-arthritis/should-i-avoid-certain-foods.aspx


Should I avoid certain foods?

Diet and arthritis
Some people feel that certain foods are bad for arthritis and that cutting them out helps. These foods include:
citrus fruits, such as oranges, lemons and grapefruit
vegetables from the nightshade family (solanaceous plants) including potatoes, tomatoes, peppers, chillies and aubergines.

We don’t recommend leaving these fruits and vegetables out of your diet because of the important nutrients they contain. There’s no scientific evidence that cutting out these foods can help with arthritis. In fact, they're rich in antioxidants – oranges and red peppers contain an antioxidant called β–cryptoxanthin which studies have shown may slow down the progression of arthritis.

But as always, do what is best for you.

Hope that you had a good time. :beer:

Thanks savvybuyer for your post on farmfoods (especially the milk). You are right a lot of the unhealthy food is a good price in there but we must resist! I will continue to buy my milk from there as it is on my way home and I can also use my tsb contactles for 5pc cashback.

I see asda sales have taken a tumble. I don't mind that at all - more on the reduced counter! I just wish Asda would have more 'fresh fruit' on the whoopsie counter though. It is all in containers which usually tastes twangy even the day after purchased!
