  • For those who maybe want a good cheap 2nd phone for BC Apps etc with a decent camera for uploading receipts and barcodes, I would give any Lenovo a miss, carp camera that never focuses. Whereas my LG K4 is excellent, great camera for receipts and no blur.

    Some suggestions pretty please

    Oh has requested head and shoulders shampoo - it is not his birthday for a while yet so it is not going on the list :(

    What do people use instead - the non branded much cheaper version?

    I got oh loads of the boots own brand sensitive on offer for £1 reduced from £2.49.
    So in effect free with the point's coupon we were using.
    I did post about it a few times.
    Can recommend for free or £1 though!

    I did get one bargain in Sainsbobs this morning - I went looking for 25p cellotape on a clipstrip or foundation from the make up section, no joy.

    In the freezer section we have a clearance section which mostly isn't but I found the one and only Sainsbobs own brand frozen parsnips for 10p!

    Great museums, decent spoons also on the river near the railway bridge.
    Nice zizzi in town plus loads of different restaurants and bars to choose from.

    Hi guys.. If anyone needs any Famous Grouse Whisky. The 1L bottle at Asda at £18 compares to Sainsburys £15.

    Making it £13.50 which I think is a decent price.

    Hope that helps

    Good evening northerngeezer paw sniffer:D

    How are you?
