    I find Sainsbury good for non skinny jeans.

    Thanks so much Enterprise. I've just ordered 5 different pairs, so hoping one of them will fit. :j

    Evening all.
    Now relaxing catching up on the thread after a hectic day out in Legoland with the brownies! My god it's so expensive there, certainly not an MSE day. At least I got in for free as I was a 'helper'.

    Has anyone managed to successfully do the Ikea eat for free, on more than one visit? We went Friday which was fine, but I'm debating whether to go again tomorrow and take DD's for their tea. It's 45 mins away though so I don't really want to go unless it will be worthwhile. TIA.

    Fingers crossed. I have big legs because of my cycling (that's what I tell myself anyway :o ) and I can actually go in and grab a size 12, and KNOW they will fit me :)

    spent most of the weekend at the new land as ownership has come through now, remember me saying it has been untouched for over 10 years and is covered in bushes and brambles so needs a lot of work, first thing we had to put a gate in was doing that and some of the neighbours stopped and was talking to oh and slagging it of and saying we paid to much as its rubish and will cost thousands to get back to good land, which is not true, they then goes so what you doing with it,
    without thinking i said, you know i make jams and we have the orchards for apples well we have a shortage of blackberries so i need a bramble farm :rotfl: the look on their faces was priceless,

    Might be worth double checking but I think they are 2 for £5 in Iceland....so great to use up giftcards.

    Yes I know Iceland isn't mentioned on website but curly has used one:D

    OMG you're making me doubt myself. :D
    Well I definitely spent one in there!
    I will check on the door when I'm passing tomorrow as the opening time sign states the methods of payments accepted.

    Will report back!
    Can't do a test shop as I'm yet to receive my gc' s.
    curl girl with a space - even though there is no space in my cupboard!!!
