    My little T express sells the passionfruit collective yoghurt and it often goes for about 15p woopsied.....I had it for brekkie today and it is lush xx

    Collective yogs are my all time favs but they never get yellow labelled around here. A couple of times Ive managed to get MOCs from them and I got them when COS had them listed for cashback

    However, it's all inconsistent and illogical - I am being inconsistent and illogical - as the one I miss off :huh:is the higher-weighted Santa's Sack as that went to much cheaper after Christmas last year. Therefore, now increasing my aversion to its current pricing. See items in the M offer on msm. Santa's Sack seems not available in A. Might have to wait for the M selection boxes offer to be picked up on the APG (assuming they have these products for M) as the offer in M has only just gone back on.

    (The difference, it seems to me, is that I recognise when I am being inconsistent and illogical:cool:, as opposed to some or many (how many Savvy, how many?:p) other people whom, on quite a few occasions, do not even seem to recognise that they are being so.)

    Afternoon luvlies

    Back from a quick shopping trip in the next town. DH and I grabbed a Subway just before we left. I had a soft drink which I put in a paper cup, read the back and noticed you could scan it with Blippar and win music tickets :rotfl: I didn't win but I brought the paper cup home and have screen shot it so you can see what it looks like :)

    Anyway, why didn't we know we could win music gig and festival tickets since it started on 27.07.16 :o. It closes on 02.01.17 so you may as well have a go at blipping the cup. You can enter once a day :D

    not sure if been mentioned yet but just a heads up if you have not yet bought the ciders for shopmium yet, the offer has ended and your receipt will only be valid if purchased before 2.30 pm today.

    Typical. I knew they would do this a second I haven't been able to leave the house today as DD1 is poorly. I was planning a trip to T's later and was quite pleased when it still said 11 hours to go, and then all,of sudden disappeared into the closed section!

    I was also appalled last night that I had to actually pay for some shopping in T's:eek:

    The U&G's are out of stock with a red label on the shelf, so no overage or brand match for me, and I bet they won't reappear until January.

    I did however manage to get another 4 fizzy OS, after 10 mins of aisle walking trying to locate them!

    I also mentioned to my hubby that people on this thread get Waities till spits and I have never ever had one. He then says oh I think I have, but threw them away:mad: he knows not to from now on. I can never decide which childs coat to buy, so often have to return it;)

    Christmas has now started for me (yesterday) - I think I always time it by the first occasion that, in public, I hear this song:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DDt3u2Ev1cI

    It was played outside one of the Ms I visited yesterday and it was the first time I've heard it this year, so Christmas has now started (for me). It is - it's a good song (for me) and usually, later that day, I then get into the car and... drive home for Christmas:doh:. So, good memories. I hope you are well. There will be some of us, again, for whom Christmas has been cancelled this year due to some tragic or other circumstance:(. You are not forgotten about and I've been there myself before, in fact on more than one Christmas in my life. Fortunately, however, most years for me have passed without incident and it's a celebration so, if you celebrate, Merry Christmas:xmastree::xmassign: and, if Christmas is off for you, then my thoughts are with you and hopefully there will be a much better Christmas at some time again for you.:A (As usual, the "world" around you, that celebrates Christmas, will continue to celebrate as they did that to me when I had my troubles several years ago.)

    Anyway, I think I got my "Merry Christmases" in around June this year as I often do such a thing:rotfl:.
  • I've done my last UG shop at T, no more coupons from the newspaper left, and I don't want to use printed ones in the little T as I'm on very friendly terms with most of the staff there including the manager.

    Anyway I'm very grateful for what I've had, must have had well over 50 of them and the remaining 3 dozen will see me through to February, so thank you Braveheart for finding this one.
