Yes, in long life section in T, in the fridge in A - they are a long life product though, so once you find them, you only need to store in the fridge once opened.

I've just been looking at Q clicksnappy and mine now has 2 new items

blind pig cider free £1.99 exp 12/10
Weston cider cans £1.99 exp 11/10

both one redemption.

I am thinking that if I also got the

Amstrel lager 650ml 50p exp11/10

then they are all in the 3 for £5 offer so £4.48 in cashback for a £5 spend - not too bad

Oh heck, I am going to have to go back now - I only went yesterday .

Also with the ShopM you could get the other 2 Cider plus an Amstel to claim another batch .

Just don't include Opti with the shop - A don't sell the cider (on the BG anyway) so Amstel compared £1.67 v £2 and reduces your BG - better to buy the Opti plus sweets etc/own brand to get the 80p off other items.

So sorry about your dad Snap, hope things improve.

We have just found out my FiL has cancer of the marrow, mostly in his spine.

Getting confused with all these cb apps now :eek:
I have the 3 ciders offer on shopmium again but I got them last week and I'm sure they not suppose to be there again
Also, ciders appearing on CS too . Probably on CoS too.
We are drowning in Cider

On their app on the specific offer page the offers appear but in small writing it says either Bought or Ongoing - if the former, you have already claimed and cannot claim again, the latter would suggest it has refreshed as a new offer (I cannot check as it passed me by last week!).

On my Shopm it still says Closed for the three ciders .

Can I please ask what banking/savings accounts people have been opting for ? Think they was talk of a Teskies one but can't remember details & I think there may have been another. Tia xx

Quite a few to consider:
T has a current account offering 3%,
TSB, Lloyds, NWide - 4%/5% depending on which bank on varying amounts (NWide RAF possible and TCB/Q too)
Halifax Rewards - £5 per month
C00p - £150 switching bonus
HSBC - £150 switching, plus £50 if you stay the year
M&S - £100 M&S vouchers, plus £10 a month

T&Cs for each of the above and limits on balances where the higher % will be paid, some depending on set amount per month paying in, most need 2 DDs switching, some have a high interest regular saver savings account too.

SanT are dropping their rate to 1.5% from 3% (major drop compared to the base rate drop - funny how they punish savers!) so may not longer be worth having, depending on how much you can put in.

Some pointers on http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/banking/compare-best-bank-accounts but remember also to check cashback sites.
