    Fifth Anniversary Combo Breaker
    Morning all

    Dedicated lurker and occasional poster popping in!

    My baby wipe stash is empty (hangs head in shame). Aside from the baby events in T and A, is there anywhere super cheap at the moment?

    DS's first pair of non-orthopaedic shoes cost £51 yesterday!!

    Unsure legette....hope someone will be able to help you with the baby wipes.

    £51:eek: unsure of circumstances but do you not get assistance from NHS if it's a medical issue?

    What did you get Ellsey?

    My local Boots is closed on a Sunday. Must get to Wilkos though. Just remembered that my TCB toilet roll is ready for collection:)

    The 75p strawberry poo x 4 and conditioner x4. Perfect for my 12 year old daughter and I. I will try a different Mr shoes tomorrow as it was a very small store and they were definitely watching me closely, of course I did nothing wrong!

    Check out the premium brands too Ellsey.....there are loads reduced but varies from one Boots to the other. I've found it doesn't work on the minis but I think LEJC has some success. It's also worked for me on the hairsprays and dry shampoos.

    I think they've just been having a clear out of random hair stuff

    Morning all :D


    Well sainsbugs didn't play ball again...... had to get a few bits for other people so I done 7 clothing shops as the boys wanted the new lego batman tops, and I wanted a top and jeggings..... all produced 200 pointers.....then done all my instore food shops and ds1 wanted a new ps4 game so all further 16 transactions produced 15 x 200 and wait for it....................a 500 pointer. !!!!!! poor show from sainsbugs this time - don't think I will bother with it next time!!


    Taking the 200 pointers into consideration I could have got most of my shopping at a's for the 10% and done it all in 1 go lol x

    Thank you TM, I will. Do you know if you can pay with points and still get 200 added or is it safer to stick to cash?
