    I was thinking along those lines sal but on the OPs receipt the £2.51 has been added on if you do the sums? :eek:

    But I'm sure it's connected...possibly the amount of poo makes a difference? Or maybe buying something else as well it works differently. Wonder if TM bought anything else with her poo and did she get them all in one transaction?

    The dove discount is exactly right. :money:

    What about the £5.02-2.51=£2.51

    Yes, I saw that one but thought perhaps a till software malfunction where the software techs may have been trying to rectify free shampoo going through-how did we miss that one...and now..who knows what is happening but I'll try tomorrow with the local "pout pout look at me, I love selfies, I am gorgeous, I am deluded" crew and see what happens. I'd say their techs-or more likely tech singular knows there's an issue and as we have seen historically in other stores, tried to put it right and made it worse...I love the tech's...

    Quite possibly you are right RR. :D

    Besides having enough Tresemme I have been keeping my feet up today as it is helping the pain in my foot so not been out, think you asked bubbs but I got bit excited about your glitch :rotfl:, it is a lot better today thank you. :)

    Love that fabric Di.

    Well done Bubbs :T

    No further cash spent today. There was lots of cauliflower left over from yesterday's curry which went very nicely with today's lamb :)

    As well as saving money this challenge is definitely making me focus on using up stuff that's been sitting in the cupboards for ages. I flavoured our roast potatoes with some "cowboy rub" seasoning that we brought back from Canada about four years ago and they were delicious.
    That's exactly what I'm doing.. using up!! Have steak (Well it's bubbs' beef from the first time round chopped up) and kidney (RTC) in slow cooker - not a pie or pudding, we are having dumplings to use up the veggie suet!!:rotfl:

    We've got the figures bubbs so I don't think we need to see the receipt. You definitely have a minus in front of your £25.10? Well you must have with the amount you paid. :rotfl:

    Lady luck you are all those hairdryers too, no trouble drying your hair after you have washed it. ;)

    Yes def a minus, i know so lucky me:p :D:T:T

    Yes that adds up doesn't it.

    I think RR might be right and they have been fiddling trying to put it right before bubbs got there. What do you think sal?

    Sounds delicious!
    We have loads of lamb left over, so I'll do a shepherds pie tomorrow and depending on what's left after that, maybe a stir fry or something to go in wraps on Tuesday.

    Tonight for our dinner (not tea as will be after 7pm TM :p), we will be having chicken curry from the depths of the chest freezer that was left over from Mr TS's party last year. :eek:

    Saved one of the naan breads from the waities curry deal as one each was too much on Friday. Mr TS is going to cook a side of cabbage with mustard seeds. :cool:

    Not sure where the cabbage came from I didn't buy it. Possibly from our fruit and veg box, we used to get it every week when all the girls were home but just couple of times a month now. I supplement with whoopsies when I can but we like the luxury of organic veg straight from a farm. It's not cheap hence me not joining in with a running total for October it would give most of you heart attacks. :o :rotfl:
