  • The peeps in the Mr Shoes thread are reporting that the final reductions of xmas gift sets will be on Wednesday 11th. Up to 70-75% off. A word of warning, some years there have been multiple false starts, so take with a pinch of salt.

    • Great for spending points saved up over the year
    • Fab for buying for next xmas (non food doesn't go off)
    • good for car booties later in the year
    • even worth it to crack open and use yourself
    A few tips:
    • Blue Ikea bags are blinking marvelous for filling up, just load up, take to checkout and refill once paid
    • Take a 2nd person to guard bags, it's quite mad shopping and very common for lifting out of others baskets :eek:
    • Put manners aside, it's a battlezone.
    • Don't spend what you cannot afford, even though it is tempting.
    • REMEMBER you need to get the stuff home:D only buy what can be carried in bus/car
    STORAGE
    • If storing in loft, remember temperatures up there vary from well below freezing to well above 20C
    • Do NOT store foodstuffs in loft, vermin are a hazard and they chew through anything to get to food (personal experience)
    • Be tidy in loft and make a list, otherwise you will encounter surprised for years to come :rotfl:
    • Always cover or bag items, nothing worse than dust covered gits and selling stock
    MOST IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
    5% of all purchase prices to be gifted to PAYPAL account BH_has_a-cheek@chancers.com ;)

    I am approaching £600 of N3crar :eek:. I really must investigate what to spend them on to get the best deal :).

    I had four 200 bonus when you spend £10 vouchers come out with the same number on different transactions. As they had the same number K assumed they were duplicates but as I was buying stuff I scanned them anyway on different transactions - result, all :cool:

    Cadbury Crunchie Blast Sticks (£1.95 and 2 for £3 in A) not making the M list (M at £1.50) as Iceland showing £1 even if OOS. W currently £1.50 - has been cheaper than this in the recent past.

    Besides, who'd want ice cream when it is absolutely cold?:eek: Apparently the temperature is higher today than yesterday but it does not feel that way at all because we are under the cloud - I've had to put the heating on:eek:!
