I only have enough for this year. There was
virtually no reduced stock here in the sales. I am thinking of moving near you.
My whoopsie friend got 12 full chickens and 12 packs of low fat mince for £1.00 each last night. He is good as he always shares with others. Just as well I was not there my budget would have been over.0 -
I'm just looking on SSC (I've learned!) and someone says there is a little Thomas, metal train engine, scanning at S for £1 instead of £7.
There is also confirmation (1 September) that we can use printed vouchers at T from their mag. Could be very useful.
I'd already clocked that there are free lego toys with the Mail this weekend.
What I went looking for was http://www.liveitalian.co.uk/coupon.php which is 50p off Giovanni Rana stuffed pasta. (Yes, I've still lots of Barilla, but not the stuffed ones.) That is £1.00 in S and £1.85 in A. I'm sure there is a reason I need an A v S shopping list! Here Yopmail is your friend or if you have a gmail account, just pop in some extra full stops. EDIT: It only let me print two on my PC. After that, even though it was a separate email, it stopped. Not like the CG soup! Will need to power up other computers...0 -
