    Just a quick reminder that if you feel someone is trolling or is an AE (alter-ego) please report them to [EMAIL="forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com"]forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com[/EMAIL].

    Don't respond to them on the forum - that often makes things worse.

    I'm just updating my spreadsheets and am reminded that we went out for the free Buds yesterday.....

    I also forwarded the link on to DS and by the fact that he hasn't yet responded by text may suggest he and a few friends took advantage of it too last night...

    so thank you whoever posted it.

    Then thank you gocat....although from memory the voucher expired possibly at midnight last night....so you may have missed out.

    Bud is as most know on here DS's drink of choice so you will forever be in his good books for being in a position to supply it for free!

    So they cost you 90p each and your selling them at £3.50 each at the car boot so a £2.40 profit on each £24 per 10.
    So for £24 you have gone to asda bought them plus ten fillers, gone home waited two/three hours, printed apg. ..........rinse and repeat how ever many times you chose which presumably is a lot to make it worth while doing a car boot.
    How much do they charge per car at a car boot these days?
    There is also your petrol to consider to asda and back and to the car boot and then how many hours do you stand at a car boot for presumably at the weekend , is that when car boots are on?
    Have you considered how much a job working 8 hours a day would pay you, unless of course you can only work 16 hours duevto benefits but then would a regular income from car boot sales not be taken into account?
    It all seems like a lot of hard work to me for such a small return but hey small things amuse small minds and all that.......Oh by the way did you forget that you're banned from this thread :beer::rotfl::D:beer::rotfl::D just saying :D


    Thought exactly the same on his 1st post :)
