    Thank you to everyone who posts the W PYO info. I had a bit of time on my hands this morning, so took a wander over there and got the chicken breasts, plus a paper, jam sugar and pick up biscuits. Was too hot for free coffee lol.

    It is never too hot for my free Latte :).

    Tenth Anniversary
    Afternoon peeps. :)

    Just got back from A's to look for the cheap toilet roll, didn't find any as it's only a small one. :(

    On the way out, I remembered I had to get some tobacco. As I was paying the CS said 'anything else?' Normally I don't buy said I'll have a £2 scratch card. Scratched it on the bus home and I won £200. :D

    Having a take away tonight. :)

    I've only just come in! (And am probably about to go again:rotfl:.)
    Let me guess - is the standard price (without the additional offer) £2.22 per kg.? I'm just going to calculate it now - it just seems too cynical that all of the supermarkets usually go to very same prices per unit... I wonder if I'm right on this occasion?

    EDIT: It works out at a bit over £1.95 per kg. So it is slightly cheaper than the usual prices and my cynicism is not correct, oh dear:((:rotfl:). In which case :idea:... I always have a back-up line:rotfl: - "they obviously won't want it at this price for too long" and therefore I'll be justified, cynically, whenever they put its price back to what it was:rotfl::rotfl:. Of course, at the 93p, it's not really that much cheaper - barely better than 10%:rotfl:.:T:rotfl::rotfl:
