    Morning all, I used the sparks offer on some £6 slippers, so they cost me £1. However since then I can't use the offer again. Good job really as I am not sure if I would have ever stopped.

    My nightwear one has expired but just ordered a "few" pairs of these:whistle::whistle:

    Shame we have to pay £4.50 a pair but great for my winter office days with boots and tunics:)

    Loads of sizes left:)

    Good Morning :wave:
    Good evening all
    Oh my god, I hope I don't stretch the page:eek: I have never uploaded a pic before:eek:

    As you asked truly madly, I thought I'd share a pic of my beautiful princess poppy. Today has been pretty pants, but I know in my heart it was the right thing to do:(
    Thanking you all once again, it really, really did mean so much xxxx

    Good evening. Thank you, you are the first to report this. I haven't been shopping today so hopefully it will behave the same tomorrow (later today :)).

    I wonder if it depends which flavour you buy? I got Flat Tyre and just got the £1.99 that it cost.

    Did we know that Iceland have 6 Gala apples down from £1.50 to 50p until Tuesday?

    Also spotted in A yesterday. Large bags of own brand potato croquettes half price at 50p:). In fact there was a variety of stuff rtc in freezer section so might be worth a looksie:)

    Are you making a cuppa nanny before you go:D

    I love trawling through the charity shops.

    Bookmark this one for reading at your leisure. She's a great lady and it's amazing what she finds in charity shops. She's also a whizz on the sewing machine and could knock up a frock in the time it takes me to write this post. She has a great bikini body too if you go back to her holiday pics:)

    Good morning everybody, I hope you are well and have a fabulous Saturday.
    Happy shopping.
    Mortgage debt 45,000. Thank you all for your help so far in helping me save to buy the house. I could not have done this without all your help.

    Twine back in stock - bargain reds only

    DH's 2 cases arrived this morning, priced them up at £244 for the 2 cases, he's well happy :D

    I'm sooooooo tempted hampy.......we got a really good case too. They seem to come in waves...........lots of people getting bad cases and then out of the blue some crackers:T

    Mr TM opened one of the Beaujolais last night and was well impressed

    On the subject of wine....:D.....great news about DD1 TS......you must be thrilled.....let's hope it allows them to get their feet on the housing ladder. At least the reduction in travelling time to work will make things a lot easier for them:)
