Got some more cheese in Lidl today . The coupons from the mags are only valid until 18th and the cheese is dated March so don't forget to stock up.

Struggled to find the biscuits that izzeyb mentioned....the ones that the coupons are valid on:oBut treated myself to a Pannetone.

Last year I completely ate a 1kg pannetone all by myself.

It's something I'm not proud of:o

At last, I have finished with Monday, so I am now on this week:). I notice there are a small number of items due to expire tomorrow on buy in M - for example the M baby bum cream, 15p More points offer due to expire although M could decide to extend it.

I am now onto Wednesday - there were a small amount of new items then, I see a mouthwash that went onto offer and a few others things. I think I must be aware of 99% of what is available in M now, and, if not, then I don't know what I am aware of:rotfl:. Now I've crossed off many of the duplicates, there is now about one and half pages, so that is not too bad (I usually have more than that on a 'very little change' Wednesday).

When I said before I was halfway through, I've now remembered that that's not half of it now - there is the additional thing, which I am hoping to do some of, of going through the list and deciding to remove quite a number of items that I haven't seen for ages - making a decision as to what has probably gone by now - or which doesn't seem to be generally available. So I'll be removing someone else's items again, that are in a store I haven't visited:doh::rotfl:, whilst the items that aren't generally available but which exist in stores I've visited remain on the list forever. I will make some decisions and guesswork as to what I think might be not be available, although having to do that, again, from seeing a very small minority of stores. The list does need cutting down though. Some decisions are being made - I have removed the Hallowe'en cakes for instance as these bakery items will be virtually certain to be past their BB dates by now if they still existed. (To be honest I have been a bit late in removing them.) I think those are gone (and I've deleted them, not even going via any lost list, instead outright removed) - but, beyond those, who knows?

(I did more than 15 items in the last hour - I've been dipping in and out of Wednesday:cool:. Hopefully it will calm down in M now for the next [Strike]three[/Strike] two-and-a-half weeks. EDIT: Two-and-a-half as now already half a week on from last price collection day.)

Sunflower...I noticed you asking about Amex earlier. It's all a bit new to me too but the promotion doesn't end until 18th....plenty of time to get around your local shops.

I wish I could find more butchers. It's a predicament if you have to travel far as your petrol costs could outweigh your savings.
Just been checking. One of Mr TM's shops. ....domestos:rotfl: , hasn't even shown up at all. The one I did minutes before his is pending.
