    Thank you - they are definitely different.

    I got 8 own brand items - custard; longlife milk; yoghurt; beans; mousse; ketchup; stuffing; choc

    plus 3 choc and 2 vanilla UG.

    These went through as one entry x 2, plus 3 individuals, all well spaced out in the receipt. Most odd.

    if you have 10 different bc's enter the receipt on the tesco bm page. and see what went wrong.

    Afternoon all - you can all stop panicking now, I am back from the very sunny and snow less Canaries and Madeira :rotfl:

    who is at a loose end this afternoon - tell me what I've missed - 2 weeks off line ... :eek:

    So far I've looked at Nectar and nothing very exciting has happened. There seems to be a few odd new free things on Q click snap.

    I tried to find the FB couponing page but he brain is too foggy and I cant find i8t.

    Treacle cat is draped all over the keyboard making typing fun :rotfl:

    Will £10 off a fleece jacket at MS do?

    The same welcome home offer as I told you about last time, if I recall correctly. :D

    Nice to see you.

    I picked my fleece jacket up today. Grey with a navy zip, which looks fine. It's a tad on the large size but will be ok. At £5 I'll be keeping it, it's good value I think.
    Didn't go near boots despite being in town, but did pop into S for goaheads and choc froggys. They didn't have the hoppin' poppin' kind, just the regular ones.

    Glad you like it, but they do have some funny colour zips this time around, don't they? I have the grey one in my basket, chosen because the zip looked black in the picture. I shan't get it if it is navy though. :(

    Welcome home to a cold UK mhoc :hello:

    Some of us thought you were going away in February and wondered where you were. Hope you've enjoyed plenty of sunshine xx
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Ok, I confess, I bought twine :o Fizz and bargain whites. The bargain whites were very new world sauvignon blanc heavy, but dont mind that. For a £98 outlay we got:

    Freixenet Cava Brut - £10
    Moet & Chandon Imperial - £32.50 :D
    Plaza Centro Prosecco - £14
    Andre Carpentier champagne - £13
    Tesco Finest Premier Cru - £19
    Jacobs Creek Chardonnay fizz - £10 :(

    Manuka Bay Sauv Blanc x 2 - £20
    Mud House Sauv Blanc x 2 - £17.50
    Brancott Terroir Sauv Blanc x 2 - £26
    Hardys Chardonnay Semillon x 2 - £9.90 yuck
    Seven Seeds Sauv Blanc x 2 - £18
    Brancott Sauv Gris - £9
    Manoir de Hersandiere Muscadet Sevres et Maine - £9

    So a total of £207.90 for £98 spent (although I know a number of them will have been cheaper when on offer). I would have liked a bit more French and a bit less New Zealand but pretty happy overall. I hold LEJC entirely responsible of course :heart2:

    I'm always happy to take the blame for any twine purchases

    At least you didn't get any piesporter...I have that in the fridge at the moment and it's my incentive to stay dry for every other day January....
    If I crack on a non drinking day that's the one that goes first!!
    If I make it to the end of Jan the piesporter goes down the kitchen sink and I'll enjoy the other offerings of my boxes......
    frugal October...£41.82 of £40 food shopping spend for the 2 of us!

    2017 toiletries challenge 179 out 145 in ...£18.64 spend

    My chef is busy in the kitchen, early meal today as DS4 going out I think. No overtime for him on. Friday, he gets home as quick as he can :D

    It's quite unobtrusive and looks fine.

    Nice to see you.

    thanks for this I found this

    M&S Collection

    Funnel Neck Fleece Jacket

    20016814

    and it took the £10 off and my £5 birthday offer as well leaving nothing to pay - I've gone for a very big size as it looks very cinched.

    I have 2 of the previous maroon fleeces, a spare in readiness and the original one always goes away with us so I take the Elite away with us every time :)
