    You can sython the petrol out of the car (it is really easy to do.... something from my misspent youth!)

    .
    You might find this a little harder now-a-days, as cars have had anti-siphon things fitted for a long time now. (Not going to say how long ago your youth must have been ;):D )

    Try for £1 on Naked fruit drinks on shoppymum tomorrow

    Free popcorn in 2 days :money:

    Edit. No BM potential on the juice but the popcorn could turn a profit if doing TvA

    so prices seem to have updated since my post.

    The popcorn is £1.98 in A and £1.49 in T but it's just £1 on W.com (not shown on MSM)

    As APG uses w.com it should pick up the £1 price

    The only thing is shoppymum give a max refund of £1.80 so you'd pay £1.98, get £1.08 APG and £1.80 cb making profit of 90p

    Not bad if you get cheap as chips fillers (you could always get free 10p sweets for Halloween)

    edit: hmmm...I just signed into w.com and the pop works isn't showing so there must be some regional variation

    edit2: still would give a small return v T so I might chuck one into my next muller shp and see how it compares to W while I'm at it
