Thanks LEJC but I will sit this one out and let someone else have a chance. I only like eating chocolate. :rotfl:

It seems a bit pointless for just a sachet...but there might be a coupon attached...I have to admit I was hoping for a bottle of it rather than a squirt....

I usually apply for any freebies even if they are sachets as handy to stuff in my rucksack if I am going over to the caravan or just away for a night or two.

Sarah...hope your DH's op is a success this time round...fingers crossed this time he can make a full recovery.
I guess its just a waiting game for news and like you said earlier jelly and soup for tea.

Oh back from hospital. The surgeon found another lump, so had 2 removed, hopefully that's it now.

They sent him home with no painkillers at all this time, yet he had a massive bagful last time.

Voice rest for 24 hours, thats all they said.

Although to be fair theres always 2 sides to a story......and what better publicity do they need than giving their stuff away....but whatever the outcome I suspect that very few getting their free tubs now will transfer to regular buyers....unless you eat it because of dietary need/requirements I suppose

Most of the coupon links have been touted round the freebie sites so they are hardly targeting potentially the market that they would like to retain going forward...lets be honest I bet there are freezers full of the stuff in student houses but once its gone are student moneysavers really going to fork out £5.99
a tub or move on to the next thing to fill the space...??
Or indeed how many elite or passers by this site like it enough to buy going forward....I think Rose mentioned it was nice...but she didnt say its on her shopping list once the vouchers have expired.....are you putting it on your W picks Zippy?

I remember last year or the year before there being a big coupon push with love tub puddings....we were eating them for weeks...but once the vouchers ran out so did the enthusiasm for them.
I think they withdrew from shops a couple of weeks ago

I'm a ben and jerrys girl and even then only when its on offer ...better still glitching....£2.50 is my max price and only then it has to be a flavour I LOVE!

none in my waitrose,:( ive only got 3 tubs from a co-op

FYI, the cb is gone from shoppyum unless your receipt is dated earlier than 8am today

Typical, I got some from H&B at lunch time. *sob sob*

When did that change? It might be worth a try anyway ... I bought some at about 11 this morning and both claims have gone through

But that might be a blessing once you've tried it....

Serendipitious

Clouds rolled away leaving it 24 degrees here...

Nipped into T's about half hour ago and their garden products range is now seriously reduced, 75% ish off from what I could tell. Ant powder 50p, lawn seed and greening spray about 1.50 etc.

The traffic was up by about 100% though, you can tell school is back...
