Hmm good idea. its the gas meter, its so low down. DH has serious copd and cant bend for long and I have arthiritis of the spine so cant bend for long. What a pair we are :rotfl:

Have you tried taking a picture of it? Maybe with a selfies stick.

Thank you. I tried searching in the A app but no cranberries showed up so didn't dare try. Next time...

yes, its a nice comparison and it soaks up excess MOCs/BG.

Asda do the more exotic version with white yogurt as well but Mr T only does the one

Thanks mhoc. I actually want some so it is an excellent comparison. A does another sort too, as well as the yoghurt, but I'm grateful for just one anyway. I've another conditional spend to use up and there are no more little dishes to help me along the way.

Thanks Bubbs. I don't think so either and you are not too late as the recyling goes tomorrow morning and I shall be glad to be rid of my pile of mags!

The sparkling water is a useful filler and though I kept my two this time, I htink the next lot will go in the food bank.

thanks for this. I did my free COS/Q soup separately - I always worry that new products are going to mess up the BG

A lot of the little dishes were cheaper in Morries but the Up&Go and the soup were cheaper in A. Got £1 brand match though had been expecting more as thought it would compare with A, not M.

But I'll get £14 back from Shopmummy, used 5 full price (£1.79) coupons for the U&G, 4 coupons for the Hipp, 30p soup, and two Ocean S for the sparkling water. Also the Batchelors will be free on COS. And a £3 wys £20 conditional spend and got another one too. So easily paid to shop and I'm happy, though if I had checked before I went out...

I asked the SA before using the T coupons, saying they were supposed to be one per transaction and if she preferred, I was happy to do that. She didn't prefer and was pleased I'd asked. Thanks to the OP who suggested that strategy some time ago.
