    Finish lemon dishwasher cleaner = £1.20 ea (buy in 2s)

    There are also a few items in the 3 for £10 meats offer that are also in PYO, braising steak, Hereford mince beef, mini chicken fillets from memory but I didn't get these.

    Also some Waities bacons are reduced and PYO. And the curry meal deal has plenty in the PYO but I'm sure these were better value when in the 2 - £6.

    I was at a loose end in Tesco yesterday afternoon so I was just getting the beans for TCB and then I thought about the shwartz -
    One of my COS accounts is due for withdrawal so I thought no harm in getting 6 herbs so I wont need any fillers.

    As you can see Tesco admit they have a multi buy but not that Asda has :(

    and like an idiot I put the beans through on the same shop so I lost 25p there :mad:

    The moral of the tale is never ever go off piste and buy anything other than what is on the shopping list :)

    On the plus side the Hipp and tea went straight into the food bank basket, I got my TCB cashback and another £5.01 from COS and a receiupt to scan for receipt hogg and shopprize and Ive got spare herbs I can give to eldest child, an excellent chef who nearly always cooks from scratch
    and not much real money spent

    Just wanted to show off my Bonio clock. Purchased from Bonio with coupons on the boxes many years ago. Noticed it last night up above the back door, still makes me smile :)

    6 Schwartz comps do add up to £6 in A although why it'd done that way is anyones guess.
