    Thank you juju for bringing over the edam,happydoos for the mayonnaise and the op for the bacofoil.
    Thanks to the Watchdog promotion on yellow stickers our local counter has doubled in size today! :j:j The bargains were amazing but there were a lot of people around but everyone was sharing apart from one who was adamant that she could pick what she wanted off the shelf and pile it in front of poor sa.
    I thought I might try sainsburys on christmas eve for the edam as I have a 4 of £20 and was wondering if I paid with my nectar vouchers they would still pay up? Anyone comment on this? I dont like parting with my real money like the rest of the elite.

    JuJu was also the OP for the bacofoil :). Missed the watchdog programme, what did they say can I ask? Thanks

    Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit; wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.

    Sorry everyone it wasn't watchdog's promotion it was on Martin's show. He interviewed a lovely lady who was an avid yellow sticker shopper and she had a table with goodies she got for under £3 and shops like this all the time. No wonder our Asda was heaving round the counter today.
