    Just catching up, wonder how many posts I can get in a row...

    This is DH's family's hometown so we're here fairly regularly. Hope work went quickly for you. Have you been to the market at all? £4.80 for a hot dog :eek::eek::eek: fortunately I was good and kept it zipped for the sake of festive marital harmony ;)



    I've not been to the market yet but hope to get into town next week - the weekend is entirely too busy for my liking.

    Hope you enjoyed your day.

    Chinese takeaway tonight with £5 off. Thank you Amex :)

    I'm on it like a car bonnet:rotfl::rotfl:

    I was knocking on the door at Marksies food hall today as it opened. No food to be had......not even the chocolate doritos:rotfl: Think I was there too early.

    Used my £10 mymail card and the £4 Sparks credit to get this lot for just over £6:T

    The tinned fruit was half price at 40p and the Christmas biscuits reduced to £1. They would look good in hampers.

    I seemed to get loads, fancy cheese biscuits for Christmas, emergency milk, Nutella for DD and plenty nice stuff for the foodbank:T

    Yes. Lots. But I find if you try again the second, or third (!) time usually works.

    Visited the new JL in Leeds today in the brand new shopping complex that opened recently.

    I've never seen such an ostentatious display of affluence. The marble floor alone was mind blowing and there were acres of it.....the Christmas decorations were unbelievable, so very very exclusive. I was gobsmacked and wondered how there could be such wealth with people sleeping homeless only yards away.:o

    It makes no sense:o

    OK folks, heads up.

    Alpro 4 pack dessert is delicious, I found it in the “free from” chilled section. Reduced to £1 until 6/12/16, with 50p off coupon in T magazine valid until 5/1/17 it is just 50p for 4. Mine have use by date a month away.

    Ocean spray fizzy water 1 litre is 2 for £1 until 17/1/17, voucher for 50p off of each valid until 30/1/17

    Nude Convent Garden shloop website still has the £1 off coupon (remember yopmail) and someone mentioned that Mr T will be having the 700ml on offer again soon. Also Sada does have it on offer 600ml for £1 and Morries has some at £1, so 10p profit

    U&G 330ml in T at £1 until 6/12/16, not sure when Sada 5 for £4 on 250mls ends? On that, I seem to have the 250ml strawberry matches Sada, BUT doesn’t take the £1.79 in Ts. Other flavours no problem

    PHEW!! That was a long post for me

    BH

    I've got no mags left, only had 8 this time. I would have used the Alpert and Ocean spay , drat. I don't suppose there's a pdf or a page with them on, I could send Mr AJ out. :D :rotfl:

    What's up bubbs?

    Edit: just seen your post lol
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.
