    Extreme couponing is reporting 1.75l bottles of Coke Zero are scanning as 50p in T. DH likes the lidl version which is 2l for 40p so I won't be rushing out, but might help someone. Maybe try with the hand scanners?

    Express pricing is often different though, we've had a few glitches that are only Express before now, so maybe they're excluded? Not seen any other reports so could have been a one-store glitch though.

    Afternoon all Hugs all round me thinks - wish I could bottle the magic in this thread so a drop or two can be given as and when required. :A

    Found an old APG last night when dusting the mantelpiece - obviously put up there for safe keeping :eek: Runs out today so over to As to pick up Vodka and a few other bits only cost me £6 and just got a £4 APG back :T

    Made a cuppa and Scottish Power rang again to ask me if I had checked their T &Cs about exit fees. Told him he was quite correct but I wouldn't be switching as I used the figures SP had quoted about my annual usage on their website to compare and I would only be 60p better off as opposed to the £16 suggested. He then tried to tell me that the figures were wrong and his set of figures were right - a little bit disconcerting I have to say :eek:

    I've been driven mad with calls today.
    Scottish power wanted to discuss switching to them and were somewhat confused when I said I was already with them.
    A lady wanted to give me 10 free goes at Euromillions and wanted to know if I was over 18. I said no. But she said this is your birthdate, quoting the one I give for competitions so she asked how old I was and I said 16 :rotfl: She gave up then.
    Someone else wanted to change all of my windows and doors but I said she would need to speak to my landlord - this always con fuses them ...

    I just signed up to a nectar survey on alcoholic drink consumption (email invite) :beer: :D

    I get 1,000 points if I record all the drinks I have away from home for the next month! :money:

    Easy peasy ....for me anyway. TM would have her job cut out trying to record all that she drinks! :rotfl:
