    It's more the wheezing tweets :( and can't decide if I have a cold or not lol

    I,be been coughing and wheezing for the past 2 days - will be flying back from Sri Lanka in the early hours so will probably keep everyone on the plane awake with my endless spluttering ! It doesn't,t feel like a proper cold though.

  • Morning all - Had a lovely few days in Dublin but it was so cold and windy - so abandoned hikes along the coast and sheltered in the hotel bar and pubs sampling some gorgeous food before heading to supermarket to pick up kilos of sausages, black & white pudding and soda bread to fill suitcase.

    Need to get the trainers out as must up my step count to burn all those excess calories I shoved down my throat over the past few days :rotfl:

    Hope all is good with the Elite.

    And if you have a beauty card it is free delivery. Otherwise I think it is free pickup in store.


    I was charged for delivery on my face masks and free perfume samples order despite having a card, so I had to email them and request a refund (my fault for not checking the order properly!)
    When I put my Birdie order through, it wanted to charge me for delivery again so I did click and collect.

    I need to email them to report this error, so I would advise people to check their orders thoroughly before clicking that final button!

    Morning.

    These multibuys are ending today. So IF still going through on multibuy (check offer comes off) and IF the unit price doesn’t drop after update (don’t rely on the SEL), may glitch.

    Offers ending don’t appear like they used to :( Not sure what time updates are but for anyone trying, I wouldn’t try too early (say 7.30).

    Coca cola £1.66 each or 2 for £2.00
    https://groceries.asda.com/search/coca%20cola

    Unfortunately a Morries comparison/offer :eek: 2 for £2.50.

    http://www.mysupermarket.co.uk/asda/bundle/661175_1629477.html

    Flavours that should compare to Morries, in case link disappears after update.

    Coca Cola, Diet Coke, Coca Cola Cherry, Coca Cola Cherry Zero, Coca Cola Caffeine Free and Diet Coke Cherry.


    Old El Paso Meal Kits – the ones on this link marked 2 for £5.00
    https://groceries.asda.com/search/Old%20El%20Paso

    Some on offer in Tesco and Sainsbobs at £2 each, some Morries at 2 for £4.00

    http://www.mysupermarket.co.uk/asda/bundle/661186_2036290.html

    Here’s what was in the offer in case the link disappears.
    Old El Paso Burrito Dinner Kit £3.18
    Old El Paso Crispy Chicken Fajita Kit £2.99
    Original Smoky BBQ Kit £2.99
    Roasted Tomato and Pepper Fajita Kit £2.99
    Fiery Fajita Kit – Jalapeno & Tomato £2.99
    Old El Paso Extra Mild Fajitas £2.99
    Old El Paso Chilli & Garlic Rice Kit £3.18


    Baxters Beetroot, Halva Bars, Indo Mie Noodles, KTC Lemon Juice & KTC Vermicelli all ending but Asda already cheapest or no comparisons.



    Can confirm that the coca cola is still going through the till on offer at 2 for £2 multibuy, think we can assume the old el paso is too :)

    Hi izzey, it looks like coca cola is 2 for £2.50 at T's from today. Do you think apg will pick this up or is it too early? Thanks

    morning all - I am late to the party having slept in until 9 - I think this is my pattern now, a row of restless nights followed by a zonked out night.

    I was just coming on here to report about COS.

    On my COS Ive got the Jacobs Creek Pinot from Sainsbobs with £5 cashback which sounds great except that according to mysupermarket its £10 :eek:
    Which is even worse if you think of how much excise duty is part of that £10 and that wine was in the mid price range a few years back and would have been in the middling price range of about £8.

    Also its only £7 in Mr !!!!!! :mad:

    But if you are flush with nectar points and/or have conditional spends then a £10 bottle of wine might help. You can make a good enough COS shopping list - free pepporami, free optiwell, iams dog food with £3.50 back ...

    Has everyone got this wine or do you have something else? OH hasnt he has just got the £2 back for JC chardonnay from !!!!!!/sada
