    I dont like cheese.

    I love the whole cheeseboard thing with the chutneys, pickles, grapes/fruit and crackers or French bread. Add some wine and I am well happy. ;)

    I like the other flavour never tried these , are they strong?

    Not that hot Bubbs, but they have a crunchy shell around the nut. I prefer the honey and salted nuts, but hubby prefers the chilli ones.

    I actually bought these both today and didn't even notice they worked out at 60p a pack. I will be going back for more. Thanks:T

    Evening folks :wave:

    We're going out for my brother's birthday tomorrow after Star Wars and he says he doesn't want to go to Beefeater again :eek: Is he really my brother?!? :rotfl:

    He wants to go to a restaurant that is part of the Mitchell and Butlers chain and I'm struggling to find discounts I can take advantage of :cry:

    Is anyone in the AA that uses the 20% off? I was wondering, how strict is the need to show your membership card?

    TIA

    I think you should all go to McDonald's .....somebody might win on the Blippar thing:o

    Packs of 6 pack Muller Light yoghurts at 50p - store specific - M Chorlton (Manchester) - expiry date is tomorrow but I'm sure yoghurts last fine! For anyone in the area (store closes at 11pm tonight). Two versions - Yellow Fruits and Limited Edition Coffee. Seen late this afternoon - there were quite a few of each (I can't imagine they have all gone in the last few hours). Probably serves them right for putting them up to £3.87:rotfl: (and 2 for £5:eek:)!

    not too strong, but you have to eat the whole packet haha

    There was a single solitary packet RTC in A down to 50p.

    I'm ashamed to say that I ate the whole packet.

    In fact I'm wearing one of those homemade cardboard signs around my neck right now:o:rotfl:

    I've got a brilliant range of crackers for this year:T

    I still have some of those Lidl chutneys from the presentation packs.

    Grapes and celery to buy:)
